Location
Single-family home in Columbia, SC 29223
Problem
A homeowner in Columbia, SC, began seeing cracks forming in their exterior brickwork. Over time, the cracks worsened, signaling potential foundation movement and raising concerns about long-term structural stability.
Solution
Our inspection revealed that one side of the house was sinking, causing the foundation to shift and leading to visible cracks. Without intervention, the settlement would continue, resulting in further structural damage.
To halt the sinking and stabilize the home, CNT installed helical piles in the affected area. These deep foundation supports anchor the structure into stable soil layers, preventing further settlement and ensuring lasting stability.
Outcome
Problem solved. With the helical piles in place, the foundation is now properly supported, preventing additional cracking and movement - with a lifetime warranty on all work performed.
