Collapsing Foundation Repair in Millburn, NJ
Don't let your home's foundation cause irreversible damage! Saturated soil surrounding the foundation of a home creates hydrostatic pressure that pushes inward. Over time, this pressure can force foundation walls to crack, bow, and, in severe cases, completely buckle and collapse beneath the home. In the case of this Millburn, NJ home, the foundation wall was suffering from serious bowing, putting the structural integrity of the home on the line.
Quality 1st's team was able to provide the home a reliable and reinforcing solution. We used our Helical Push Pier System to restore the foundation's strength and provide an opportunity to lift it back in place. These steel piers are installed on the exterior of the home and are screwed into stronger soil underground, securing the weight load of your home onto the new piers. Our crew then restores the excavated soil back so the supporting system is completely hidden from view.
