Supporting A Home In Cockeysville, MD With Helical Piers: Do You Need Foundation Support?

This homeowner in Cockeysville, MD didn't think much of the staircase crack when he first purchased his home. But after years of living there, he then realized the crack became larger and larger each year. Worried, he called DryZone to check out what can be done before a full foundation replacement of the front area. 

When our System Design Specialist came out to investigate the home, the homeowner was reassured that a full foundation replacement wasn't needed, just some extra support.

With 4 helical piers, they were able to stabilize the one side of the home that was being affected by soil settlement and erosion. 

The helical piers would lift the home back up to its original position to solve the problem once and for all. Made of galvanized steel and having helix-shaped blades, the piers are screwed into the soil, reaching greater depths than any other option.
