Restoring Strength and Peace of Mind With Stabil-Loc Push Piers and SRS Carbon Fiber - Ellenville, NY

When this homeowner reached out to us, they were facing significant settlement issues with their home. The root of the problem? Their foundation had been poured in separate sections, without proper reinforcement. This not only compromised the stability of their home but also led to water penetration issues and a musty smell seeping upstairs from an unfinished area.

We knew this project would require a comprehensive solution, so we got to work. First, we removed the old, deteriorating supports and replaced them with our state-of-the-art SmartJacks. These galvanized steel supports are designed to resist moisture and provide long-lasting stability.

Next, we dug down the dirt floor to install our WaterGuard new slab system, addressing the water infiltration issue. But we didn’t stop there. Knowing the foundation’s weak points, we excavated around the exterior to install pre-construction Stabil-Loc push piers. These piers were tied into number 8 rebar and connected to the foundation, providing the much-needed strength the original construction lacked.

With everything in place, we formed around the piers and rebar, both inside and outside, and poured concrete to create a strong, unified bond. Finally, we ground down the walls and applied SRS carbon fiber strips, ensuring the walls would remain stable and secure for years to come.

The transformation was remarkable. The homeowner was thrilled with the outcome, grateful that they addressed the issue before it became an even bigger headache. Thanks to our work, their home now boasts restored structural integrity and, most importantly, peace of mind.
