Foundation Repair Photo Album: Sinking Home in Holcombe, WI Home Stabilized with DBS

Homeowners in Holcombe, WI had issues with their block foundation. Hoping to find a permanent solution, they contacted DBS for a free, no-obligation estimate. A DBS Design Specialist visited the home to provide a thorough estimate for the foundation repair work. There was significant stair-step cracking where certain portions of the foundation were settling and sinking. Soil conditions and forces of nature are the main causes of foundation settlement. Therefore, our Foundation Repair Specialist recommended our push pier system to transfer the weight of the home to stable soil. DBS Foreman Trevor Ingle and his piering crew installed 4 push piers and completed a lift procedure to instantly lift the settled home. The piers are immediately weight-tested upon installation and driven to weight-bearing strata beneath the soil's surface. This home is now permanently stabilized with the DBS push pier system.
