Local Basement & Crawl Space Contractor in Myrtle, MS

John M. of Myrtle, MS and his wife were having concerns regarding their home. The back corner of the home has cracked and settled.  They are the original owners of the home. They’ve lived here for more than 20 years and have no plans to move. This is their forever home. Their back porch was also sinking.  They spend a lot of time on their porch and to keep enjoying the view from that porch, they needed to get this resolved.  They tried to have this addressed about 10 years ago, but the company they contracted with installed inferior products.  The problem remained and that company went out of business.

We designed a solution that will permanently stabilize both their back porch and their home.  First, we used our PolyLevel® Concrete Injection System to lift and level the porch.  We also sealed all joints and cracks with our NexusPro® Sealant.  We used our push pier system to address the foundation settlement happening with the house.  Our push piers are driven deep into the earth until they meet what is called load bearing strata.  This is the point in which the piers can go no further and rest on this stable soil.  They are attached to the house and pressurized, pushing against the load bearing strata until the house begins to lift.  This is will permanently stabilize their home and ensure that no further settlement will occur in that area.

John and his wife are very pleased with the results, stating: “Chet, Brian, Mike & Randy were very knowledgeable about their work and worked well together. They were very respectful and included us in decisions. We would highly recommend this company for your needs.”  We are thrilled to have given them the peace of mind of knowing that their home is stable, and they can enjoy their back porch forever.
