Slab Foundation

OverviewPress piling piers are an advanced foundation repair method that utilizes the stacking of pre-cast concrete cylinders to provide deep stabilization. This technique is especially effective for achieving optimal penetration in challenging soil conditions.
Methodology
Cylinder Specifications: We use 6-inch diameter, 12-inch long concrete cylinders.
Hydraulic Pressing: The cylinders are hydraulically driven into the ground, applying pressures up to 10,000 psi. This ensures the piers reach the greatest depth possible for maximum stability.
Installation Process:
Pier Stacking: The pre-cast concrete piers are stacked and pressed into the ground.
Concrete Cap: Once the cylinders are securely in place, a concrete cap is laid above them, providing a stable platform for your foundation.
Additional Support: Two additional cylinders are placed on top of the concrete cap and secured with steel shims to enhance strength and load distribution
Benefits of Press Piling Piers
Deep Stabilization: Reaches greater depths for enhanced support in unstable soils.
High Load Capacity: Designed to withstand significant weight, ensuring your foundation remains secure.
Quick Installation: The hydraulic method allows for efficient installation with minimal disruption to your property.

Warning Signs

If you notice any of the following signs, it may indicate potential foundation issues that need to be addressed:

Uneven or Sloping Floors: Floors that are not level can be a clear sign of underlying foundation problems.
Cracks in Brick: Look for cracks in both exterior and interior brickwork, as these can signal shifting or settling.
Displaced or Cracked Moldings: Moldings that are misaligned or cracked may indicate movement in the foundation.
Cracks in Walls: Horizontal or vertical cracks, as well as bowing walls, are serious indicators of structural issues.
Cracks in Flooring or Foundation: Any cracks in the flooring or foundation itself should be evaluated by a professional.
Windows and Doors Not Opening Properly: Difficulty in opening or closing windows and doors can be a sign that your foundation has shifted.
Gaps Between Walls, Ceilings, or Floors: Gaps appearing in these areas may suggest settling or structural movement.

Don’t Ignore the Signs

If you experience any of these issues, it’s important to consult a foundation repair expert. Early intervention can save you time and money in the long run.
