Underpinning

Whenthegroundsinks,yourhouseshouldn't.

Settled footings need new footings. Helical or push piers carry the load back to stable soil — so the house settles where it was designed to sit.

Settling is expansive clay, weak soil, or an original footing that was never deep enough. Underpinning doesn't fix the soil — it bypasses it.


How the specialist works

Threesteps.Noguesswork.

01

Locate the settlement.

Which corners have dropped? How much? Surveys and elevation readings tell the story.

Whole-perimeter or targeted — depends on the pattern.

02

Pick the pier.

Helical piers screw into stable soil below frost depth. Push piers are hydraulically driven. Specialist picks based on soil and load.

Engineered plans, permit filed, specialist stands by the math.

03

Lift back — or hold.

Sometimes the right call is to stabilize without lifting. Other times the house is lifted back to level. Each approach has risks.

Homeowner decides after the specialist explains trade-offs.
