Foundation Repair Photo Album: Helical Pier Installation in Elkridge, MD

An Elkridge, MD homeowner was dealing with recurring cracks around their fireplace and noticed the chimney appeared to be sinking. After a basement crack near the base of the fireplace widened again following a previous repair, our team at Quality 1st Basement Systems installed Helical Piers to provide additional deep support beneath the affected area. The piers transfer structural loads to more stable soil below, giving the home a deeper support system designed to help address the movement and cracking concerns.
