Push Piers- Dartmouth, NS
Challenge
Recently, we addressed a foundation issue for a homeowner in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, that perfectly illustrates our dedication to delivering long-term solutions. The homeowner reached out to us concerned about noticeable cracks and uneven floors within their property. Knowing the critical nature of foundation problems, they contacted our Customer Care Specialist to schedule an inspection. Our System Design Specialist identified foundation settlement due to unstable soil and confirmed that addressing this promptly was essential to preserve the home's structural integrity and maintain property value. After a comprehensive evaluation, we proposed the installation of our Push Pier System—a proven solution for issues like foundation settling.

Our team, composed of skilled professionals, proceeded to the site, ensuring all necessary precautions were in place for a smooth installation process. We hydraulically drove the engineered steel tube sections through strategically placed steel brackets beneath the foundation, reaching the reliable load-bearing strata below. This method reinforced the home's stability, potentially allowing us to elevate it back to its original position. Once the Push Pier System was installed, we noticed immediate benefits. The foundation was stabilized, existing cracks began to close, and the overall functioning of the home's windows and doors improved significantly. Benefitting from a reliable and innovative correction, the homeowner experienced increased peace of mind and restored confidence in their property’s integrity.
