Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

The owner of this home in Two Harbors, MN reached out to us looking for help with their sunken front porch.

Design Specialist Zach Guilliams went to the home to conduct a free, no-obligation estimate for the homeowner. After a thorough inspection, Zach generated a quote for our helical pier system.

Foreman Nate Simonson led the installation of this project with assistance from a crew. Together they installed helical piers underneath the front porch to level and permanently stabilize it. The piers are driven deep into the soil until it reaches a layer stable enough to support the weight of the structure, ensuring no additional movement will occur.

Now that the porch has been permanently stabilized, the homeowner can relax with peace of mind.

In Duluth, MN, a homeowner in the Park Point area was looking to upgrade their basement by adding support for their sagging floor, as well as making an improvement to their waterproofing system. After a thorough inspection, it was determined that the SmartJack® XL system would have to be installed for structural support, and our specially designed waterproofing plan would be put in place for this basement. In Park Point homes, our crews carefully place dimple drainage matting along the exisitng concrete floor, and then pour a new layer of concrete on top of that to elevate the flooring. While other waterproofing products are installed as well, this is a crucial step to ensuring that no further water issues take place within the basement. The results of the project can be seen here!

This home just outside the city of Gilbert had gone without care for some time and the current owner now wishes to restore it to its original glory of when it was their family home. Among the first steps in this process was to re-stabilize the foundation. After years of temporary fixes on the foundation, it was time to install a permanent solution that supported the whole home without need for wood shims, additional bottle jacks, or a newly constructed foundation. By using a combination of helical piers and steel beams we created a solution custom fit to the home that provides even support across the whole home.
