The bonuses of raising a foundation slab.

  After an inspection from one of Northern Basements System Design Specialist and an Engineer, they found that the house had in fact sunk up to 1 3/4 inches in some places on the foundation.  To fix the problem the team installed 119 Slab piers and poly level raising the floor back to a level position.  When the team finished raising the slab you could clearly see that the molding had sealed up tight to the ceiling.

Foundation Support in South Burlington, VT

The owners of a very large building in South Burlington, VT were in serious trouble.  Their building had started to sink and knew they needed help.  They did their research and came to the conclusion that Matt Clark's Northern Basement Systems was far and beyond the most reputable and reliable company for the job.  Northern Basement Systems did an inspection and found that the foundation had in fact sunk 3 1/4    In the before picture you can see where there is a massive crack in the floor.  The team dug up the floor and installed a State of the Art Push Pier.  This will allow help support the column of the building.

The amazement of what push piers can do in Burlington, Vermont

Push Piers are made of steel and are driven very far into the ground until it hits stable soil or bedrock.  The push piers on this job were used in both the interior and exterior of the building to lift it back to the original position.  The team removed soil from around the exterior walls then used a heavy-duty steel bracket that is installed below and against the building foundation's footing.  Next, steel piers are driven hydraulically through the bracket into the stable soil.  The weight of the building is transferred through the piers to competent soil.  Then our team lifted the building back to a level state, backfilled the soil, and now the building is permanently stabilized.
