How foundation repair methods work

Different foundation problems call for different repairs. Before comparing options, ask what is moving, what may be causing it, and what the proposed work is meant to do.

Piers and underpinning

Underpinning adds support beneath an existing foundation. Push piers and helical piers are options that can carry a settling foundation’s weight to deeper supporting material. The choice depends on the home’s structure, soil conditions, room for equipment, and repair design.

Wall reinforcement and water management

Wall anchors, braces, and reinforcement can support certain walls that have moved. Drainage work may also be needed to manage water around the foundation. Ask which part of the plan supports the structure and which part manages water; drainage does not replace needed structural support.
