Foundation Repair Photo Album: Push Pier Installation in Wildwood, Missouri

Tim's home in Wildwood, Missouri was suffering from major foundation settlement. Large gaps between the brick archway surrounding his from porch and separation between the concrete base of the porch and home required immediate attention. Tim called Woods to find a solution to these cracks and protect his home. Foundation settlement like this can happen over a long period of time usually due to soil movement. We installed four push piers around the front porch of the home to re-level the concrete porch and reattach the brick that had separated. This returned the porch to it's original position and helped Tim feel that his home was safe and protected.

Cracks along Brick

Movement in the home's foundation is the primary cause of these large cracks along the brick archway. The home has settled slightly uneven which causes the stair-step cracks along the mortar joints.

Separation from Concrete

Not only has the settlement of the foundation caused the brick to separate, but also the concrete to separate from the concrete.

Large Gaps Between Bricks

These large gaps between the bricks on the home's exterior are likely due to uneven settlement of the home's foundation. By installing push piers we are compensating for that movement and returning the home closer to it's original position.

Prior to Installation

Prior to installation of the push piers our team surveys the area to determine where is best to add this additional support. Creating a specific solution for each job and home.
