Foundation Repair Photo Album: Push Piers Installed in St. Cloud, MN to Raise Foundation for New Owners

Before finalizing the purchase of this beautiful home in St. Cloud, MN, the potential owners wanted to have a professional examine the foundation. They contacted DBS for a free, no-obligation estimate for the foundation work.DBS Sales Manager Royce Bunn visited the home and provided a thorough inspection. This home is located near a large pond, which explains the settlement of the foundation over time. After taking thorough measurements on both the interior and exterior of the home, Royce created a custom design to restore this home using our push pier system.First, DBS Foreman Zach Jorenby and his crew excavated soil along the exterior of the home. From there, they installed 8 push piers at the foundation footing and completed a lift procedure.This home's foundation is restored and protected against further movement.

Soil Conditions Caused Foundation to Settle in St. Cloud

Most foundation issues are the result of the soil around your home. Poorly compacted soils after new builds, as well as the regular freeze and thaw cycle can impact your foundation over time.

Wetness in Soil Causes Movement

This home sits near a pond in St. Cloud, MN. As the moisture level in the soil has changed throughout the seasons, the foundation has settled.

Bolts Tightened to Lock Piers into Place

This home's push piers are locked into place and the weight is transferred from the original, unstable soils, through the piers, to the competent soil.
