From Collapse to Confidence A Garage and Foundation Saved - Warwick, NY

A few months ago, a concerned homeowner reached out to us with a serious issue. Their garage, which housed a car lift, was showing alarming signs of distress. The back wall had started leaning away from the home, and to their shock, the car lift had sunken and collapsed the garage floor. After repairing the floor, they hoped their troubles were over. But the back wall continued to lean, and they knew it was time to call in an expert.
 

Upon inspection, we discovered several cracks in the foundation, revealing a more significant issue: the home wasn’t just sliding down the hill—it was also settling.

 

To address these problems, we carefully installed seven Stabil-Loc push piers underneath the foundation—four along the back wall and three on the side. These piers allowed us to lift, level, and support the home, effectively stopping the settlement.

 

But our work didn’t stop there. To prevent further movement, we ground down the foundation’s surface and applied SRS carbon fiber strips in both bidirectional and unidirectional patterns, using epoxy to bond them securely. Finally, we parged the wall, protecting the foundation and carbon fiber strips from sunlight, ensuring the system would hold up over time.

 

Since the installation, the homeowner has noticed everything is level again. Most importantly, they’ve regained their peace of mind, knowing their home is secure and stable once more.
