Foundation Repair Photo Album: Push Pier Installation in Cunningham, TN
A homeowner in Indian Cunningham, TN, reached out to Frontier Foundation & Crawl Space Repair for assistance with stabilizing their foundation. Following assessment by our technician, it was determined that employing push piers would effectively stabilize and potentially raise the home, preventing further cracking and settling. Upon arrival at the site, our team commenced excavation around specific areas of the home requiring stabilization. Push pier sections were then methodically inserted into the soil until reaching the necessary depth, with steel brackets subsequently linking the piers to the foundation. The excavated soil was then carefully reinstated and leveled. As a result of these efforts, the home now stands secure and stable for the foreseeable future.
