Photo Album: Cracked, Sinking Foundation Repaired in Gray, GA
Wilbur S. of Gray, GA had problems with cracks in his foundation walls. After 23 years of living in his home the cracks had worsened. Worried not only about his property value, but also for his piece of mind, Wilbur researched foundation cracks online and came across LowcountryBasementSystems.com. He read stories of others with similar problems and looked at pictures of cracked foundation walls similar to his own. He called and scheduled a free inspection. The inspector visited Wilbur’s home and performed a thorough evaluation. The inspector recommended a custom solution to stabilize the home and prevent the problem from getting worse. Lowcountry Basement Systems recommended stabilizing the sinking foundation wall with four galvanized steel push piers. Wilbur was excited to get the problem fixed.
