Engineered Pier Systems That Permanently Stabilize Foundations

Our Foundation Settlement Repair Process

Foundation settlement happens when shifting or weak soils can no longer support your home. In Ohio, clay-heavy soils and drainage issues make this a widespread concern. If left untreated, settlement worsens and leads to severe structural damage.

Our solution: engineered pier systems that anchor your home to stable soil or bedrock. Using push piers or helical piers, we transfer the weight of your foundation to strong strata below. This not only stabilizes your home but can also lift it back into its original position, closing cracks and restoring safety.

Repair Process:

Soil & Structure Evaluation

Identify settlement severity and soil stability.

Pier Design & Engineering

Drive piers into stable soil layers until proper capacity is reached.

Pier Installation

Drive piers into stable soil layers until proper capacity is reached.

Foundation Lifting

Transfer the home’s load and carefully raise settled areas.

Final Inspection

Verify results and provide warranty-backed protection.

Settlement is one of the most serious foundation issues, but also one of the most preventable when caught early.

Clear Answers About Fixing Sinking Foundations

Foundation Settlement FAQs

How do I know if my home is settling?

Look for cracks in walls, sticking doors and windows, uneven floors, or gaps between ceilings and walls. Chimneys or porches pulling away from the home are also classic signs.

What repair methods are available?

Push piers and helical piers are the most common. These systems anchor your foundation to stable soil or bedrock and can lift the structure back into its original position.

Is it safe to live in a home with settlement?

Minor settlement may not pose immediate danger, but progressive settlement can compromise your home’s safety and value. Early repair prevents worsening damage.

Are settlement repairs permanent?

Yes. Properly installed pier systems permanently stabilize the home and are backed by long-term warranties. Many homeowners also see visible cracks close after lifting.

What causes settlement in Ohio homes?

Ohio soils are prone to expansion and contraction due to heavy rainfall, clay-rich ground, and seasonal freeze-thaw cycles. Poor drainage, soil erosion, plumbing leaks, or improper backfilling after construction can also undermine the foundation. Over time, these factors lead to uneven settlement and visible structural issues.

Will settlement repairs disrupt my yard or landscaping?

Minimal excavation is required around the foundation, but our crews work carefully to protect your landscaping and restore disturbed areas after installation.

Can foundation settlement affect my plumbing?

Floors sag when crawl space joists lose support due to wood rot, mold, high humidity, or soil settlement. Sometimes, undersized beams from original construction are also to blame.
