Push Piers
At American Foundation & Waterproofing, the use of push piers is a fundamental aspect of addressing structural foundation repairs. These steel push piers are expertly installed by our foundation specialists in Chattanooga, securely attached to the foundation of a building, and then driven deep into the bedrock using a hydraulic press. This process ensures that these push piers bypass any soft or unstable soil and reach load-bearing strata far beneath the surface. Once firmly in place, push piers provide a sturdy base that can shift the foundation back to its original position. This is an effective solution for dealing with issues of foundation settlement. By transferring the weight of the structure from weaker soils onto the pier system, push piers stabilize and level load-bearing basement walls, ensuring long-term stability for your building.
Slab Piers
When unstable soil causes sinking basement floors, American Foundation & Waterproofing uses slab piers to address the issue. This condition can lead to the basement floor cracking and splitting into multiple sections, which then sink unevenly, creating tripping hazards. Slab piers, unlike push piers that are used for wall stabilization, secure these sinking sections. By using slab piers, our foundation specialists in Chattanooga restore stability to basement floors in homes, enhancing safety for all residents.
Helical Piers
At American Foundation & Waterproofing, we take preventative measures to stabilize foundation issues before they occur. One such measure includes the use of helical piers in homes around Chattanooga. These piers are installed in areas known to have soft soil conditions that could lead to future foundation settlement. By reaching the load-bearing strata beneath the building, helical piers stabilize the foundation effectively. They are designed to resist both inward and outward forces acting on basement walls, providing comprehensive protection for structures.
