This homeowner contacted DBS after noticing settling and cracking in the rear of their garage and basement beneath it. With the garage floor made of concrete spanning over the basement, and the property located on the Mississippi River with limited access due to a retaining wall drop-off, the challenge lies in stabilizing and lifting the rear wall of the garage.

When our Design Specialist went out of the property, he recommended the installation of push piers the stabilize and lift the rear wall of the garage. Despite challenges in access and landscaping, our crew went out to the property and successfully installed 8 push piers that were 12-50' below the foundation. Once the project was complete, the homeowner was happy with the final outcome!
