Photo Album: Unlevel Foundation Fixed on Tybee Island, GA
This homeowner noticed something was wrong with her foundation after Hurricane Matthew. Her floor was sagging and her windows and doors were hard to open and close.
An inspector from Lowcountry Basement Systems recommended that Julie stabilize her foundation and level her house to fix the sagging floors and sticking doors. Lowcountry Basement Systems installed Helical Piers to support the foundation and stop it from settling any further. A SmartJack System was installed in the crawl space to support the sagging floor. With Julie’s foundation stabilized her doors could open and close properly again.
