Push Piers in Oceanside
Homeowners in Oceanside, CA, noticed some signs of settlement throughout their home. They were having issues with the opening and closing of windows and doors, and other signs included the cracking of the slabs and cracks in walls or the interior and exterior of the home. The homeowners knew it was now time to take action, before the issues became much more severe. The homeowners did some research and found Saber to be the best choice. The design specialist from Saber was scheduled to do a property evaluation for the homeowners. The design specialist proposed to the homeowners, to repair the foundation. The proposal was to remove concrete and add push piers at the foundations footings in specific locations around the property, then a lift would be attempted and PolyLEVEL™ would be injected beneath the foundation to further stabilize the property from and future settlement. Once the proposal was approved and signed by the homeowner, the Saber crew was scheduled to complete the project. The Saber crew showed up at the jobsite and began work immediately. Ten areas of concrete was removed so that the soils around the foundation could be excavated. Once the excavation was completed the crew then installed the push piers at each location. The piers were then set up to start the lift of the property once the lift was completed the PolyLEVEL™ was injected beneath the foundation to prevent the property from future soil settlement. Once the void had been filled the crew then filled the holes that had been excavated and the concrete that was removed was replaced with fresh new concrete. The homeowners no longer will see the signs of settlement, the doors and windows that were once hard to open and close will no longer be an issue.
