Does Your Slab Foundation Need Repair?
Homes built on slab foundations are just as susceptible to foundation problems as those with basements or crawl spaces—especially when built on unstable or inadequate soil conditions. As prime building locations become scarce, more homes are being constructed on marginal sites, increasing the risk of foundation issues.
Common Signs of Slab Foundation Issues
- Cracks in floors or walls
- Sticking doors or windows
- Uneven flooring
- Gaps around windows or baseboards
- Plumbing leaks under the slab
If you’ve noticed one or more of these issues, it’s time to get your slab foundation inspected by a professional.
How Underpinning Stabilizes Your Slab Foundation
To resolve slab foundation problems, underpinning methods are used to transfer the weight of the structure from the unstable surface soil to deeper, more stable layers.
Common Underpinning Solutions:
- Steel Push Piers – Driven deep into load-bearing soil to lift and support the slab.
- Helical Piers – Screwed into the ground to provide reliable stabilization and used in lighter structures or where resistance is required immediately.
- Slab Piers – Specifically designed for supporting and leveling slab-on-grade foundations.
These products help lift your home to its original elevation and prevent further settlement or movement.
