Photo Album: Settled Foundation in Hinesville, GA Stabilized with a Push Pier System from Lowcountry Foundation Repair
Garion S. of Hinesville, GA had a problem with his settled foundation. Eleven years earlier, Garion had attempted to repair a crack in his exterior walls, but the damage progressed over time and the cracks grew. Frustrated and worried about the safety of his home, Garion asked his neighbors what he should do. They referred him to Lowcountry Foundation Repair for a free inspection. An inspector from Lowcountry Foundation Repair visited the home in Hinesville and noted the cracks in the exterior walls. Chunks of mortar fell from the exposed areas along the brick wall and were a hazard. The inspector recommended installing galvanized steel push piers to stabilize the home’s foundation. The piers would be hydraulically driven into the ground, down to the load-bearing strata where the weight of the home could be transferred, stabilizing the foundation.
