Foundation Repair Photo Album: Push Piers Lift Sinking Cabin in Lake Nebagamon, WI

Cabin owners in Lake Nebagamon, WI had considerable sinking on one end of the home. This caused settling in the foundation, creating cracks in the basement floor and allowing water to reach the home. Worried about the issue getting worse, they reached out to DBS for a permanent solution.  DBS Design Specialist Henrik Makitalo is an expert foundation repair. After visiting the home and providing a free, no-obligation estimate for the work done, Henrik determined that the home needed assistance from our structural, waterproofing, and concrete repair teams.  Our Basement Repair Foreman Zach Royer and his production crew removed concrete on the interior of the home in order to install 4 push piers. From there, they performed a lift procedure. These galvanized steel piers were hydraulically driven into the ground to weight-bearing soils. The weight of the home was then transferred to the competent soil. One that was completed, our concrete repair team took over to lift and level the area where the poured slad has sunken.  The cabin owners were happy with the work done and can now depend on a safe and comfortable home for years to come.
