Foundation Repair In Guelph

Project Overview.

A Guelph homeowner noticed uneven floors and visible cracks forming throughout their home, signs that pointed to soil settlement beneath the foundation. Because these issues needed a structural fix rather than a waterproofing patch, they turned to Aquatech’s team of foundation specialists for a full foundation repair solution built to restore lasting stability.

Challenges:

  • Uneven Floors Throughout the Home: Noticeable dips and slopes in the flooring pointed to shifting beneath the foundation.
  • Visible Cracks in Walls and Foundation: Cracking suggested the foundation was under active structural stress.
  • Soil Settlement Beneath the Property: Guelph’s soil conditions had caused portions of the foundation to settle unevenly over time.
  • Risk of Worsening Structural Damage: Left unaddressed, the settlement and cracking threatened to worsen and compromise the home’s overall stability.

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:

  1. Comprehensive Foundation Assessment: First, our team conducted a thorough inspection of the property’s foundation, checking for cracks, uneven floors, and other signs of damage.
  2. Root Cause Analysis: Next, we identified the underlying causes of the settlement, including soil conditions and drainage issues around the property.
  3. Customized Repair Plan: Based on our findings, we developed a repair plan tailored specifically to the home’s unique structural needs.
  4. Helical Pier and Push Pier Installation: We then installed helical piers and push piers to stabilize the foundation and redistribute the structural load evenly.
  5. Wall Anchor Installation: Where needed, we added wall anchors to correct and reinforce sections of the foundation under lateral pressure.
  6. Final Inspection and Sealing: Finally, we sealed all repaired cracks and joints to protect the restored foundation from future moisture intrusion.
