Foundation Repair In East York
Project Overview.
A homeowner in one of East York‘s older character homes noticed cracks forming and uneven floors throughout the property. Because homes of this age often develop settlement issues that surface-level fixes can’t solve, they reached out to Aquatech for a full foundation repair solution built to restore stability without compromising the home’s original character.
Challenges:
- Cracks and Uneven Floors in an Older Home: Signs of structural movement had appeared throughout the property, common in homes of this age.
- Decades of Gradual Settlement: The foundation had settled unevenly over many years, requiring a precise diagnosis to correct properly.
- Preserving the Home’s Original Character: The homeowner wanted the repair completed without disrupting the property’s original layout and landscaping.
- Addressing Root Causes, Not Just Symptoms: A surface patch wouldn’t hold, so the repair needed to correct the underlying soil and drainage issues.
Materials Used
- Helical piers for foundation stabilization
- Push piers for structural support
- Wall anchors for bowing wall correction
- Hydraulic cement for crack repair
- Crystalline waterproofing admixture
- PVC waterstop for joint sealing
Solutions Implemented:
- Thorough Property Assessment: First, our experienced team conducted a meticulous inspection of the foundation, checking for cracks, uneven floors, and other signs of damage. This assessment identified soil settlement and poor drainage as the underlying causes.
- Tailored Repair Plan: Next, we developed a repair plan designed specifically to address the home’s age and unique structural needs.
- Helical Pier and Wall Anchor Installation: We then installed helical piers and wall anchors, using cutting-edge methods to restore stability and strength to the foundation.
- Crack Repair and Final Inspection: Finally, we sealed all repaired cracks and conducted a final inspection to confirm the foundation’s long-term stability.
