This O'Fallon, Missouri garage started settling due to the extreme hot temperatures drying out the supporting soils under the shallower footing that only needs to be below the frost line compared to the deeper foundation of a basement. We installed several push piers in the interior of the garage to help save the homeowner's landscaping. We were able to do so since the homeowner acted quickly to get the repairs completed before further settling rotated the foundation outward. If that had occurred, we would have to install the piers on the outside of the foundation to help rotate the foundation back... and then the landscaping would have needed to be replaced too, adding to the overall cost of this project.
This basement had bowing walls due to hydrostatic pressure in the soil around the home. Installing Foundation Supportworks' wall anchors straightened the walls. And the anchor covers provided a more aesthetically-pleasing repair.
