Foundation Repair Photo Album: Helical Piers Installed In A Home In Ringwood, NJ

Quality 1st Basement Systems was able to help out a homeowner in Ringwood, NJ as the foundation of the home was unstable and there were signs of cracks on the walls. It is very important to take action when seeing signs of foundation failure as the situation can get worse if not treated on time. System design specialist, Steve Ventriglio, went out to inspect the affected area and recommended great products to help fix the foundation once and for all. Senior Foreman, Victor Leon, and his crew went out and installed 5 helical piers on the side of the foundation. A helical pier owes its name to the helical plates welded to the pier shaft. These plates help to pull the pier into the soil during installation and provide anchoring strength as the weight of the foundation or structural element is transferred to the pier. Helical piers have a great deal of versatility for stabilizing and restoring foundations and masonry elements.
