Foundation Settlement Services

When your home’s foundation settles, it has shifted downward from its original position due to soil erosion, moisture or poor compaction. Foundation settlement can create numerous safety risks for your home and your well-being. Your walls may develop cracks, doors and windows may stick or become misaligned and utility lines could be damaged.

Our Process

Our Approach to Foundation Settlement

At Queen Foundation Repair, we take a comprehensive and customer-centric approach to foundation settlement services. We combine our expertise with advanced techniques and equipment to deliver effective and long-lasting solutions. Our team is dedicated to providing exceptional service and ensuring customer satisfaction throughout the entire process.

What We Offer

Our Foundation Settlement Services

The team at Queen Foundation Repair can perform a complete range of foundation settlement services. We are trained and equipped to address the cause of your foundation issues, from assessment to repairs, restoration and replacement.

Foundation Settlement

Queen Foundation Repair will investigate your property to conduct a thorough assessment of the settlement. We will examine existing damage and your soil’s properties to determine the reasons for your foundation’s settlement, how much it has shifted and how much risk your property still faces.

 

After completing our assessment, we will work with you to develop a solution for your property. Our team can determine the best options to stabilize your foundation, repair the damage and ensure the safety of your family and belongings. We use advanced techniques and the latest equipment for comprehensive, long-lasting repair solutions.

 
 

Foundation Underpinning

Underpinning a foundation means strengthening and stabilizing your home’s foundation from underneath to address settlement issues. Underpinning techniques can help stabilize the foundation walls and create more stable soil. This service can be beneficial if your home is installed on uneven terrain, such as poorly compacted clay soil.

 

Queen Foundation Repair can use various underpinning services and techniques to support your foundation and prevent uneven, non-uniform settlement, which can cause wall cracks or damage the property’s structure. 

 

For example, if the soil conditions are challenging, we may use helical piers screwed deep into the ground, providing durable, long-term support to your foundation. Another common solution includes push piers, which are hydraulically driven into the ground and transfer the weight of your home to deeper, more stable soil. We may also use slab piers to reinforce slab foundations.

Foundation Restoration

If your settlement issues have caused damage to your foundation, Queen Foundation Repair can provide repairs and restoration services. We have the skills, expertise and equipment to evaluate the full extent of the damage and develop a repair plan for your property.

 

Our team will thoroughly evaluate the location, depth and severity of foundational damage. We will document all cracks, structural shifts and signs of compromised integrity and then determine a suitable repair or restoration method. For instance, we may fill in cracks with sealants, use epoxy injections to restore your foundation’s structural integrity or use carbon fiber reinforcement to increase its tensile strength.

Foundation Lifting

Lifting your foundation means raising it from its current position back to its original height. This prevents it from sinking further into the ground and limits the risk of additional damage.

 

Queen Foundation Repair can use multiple foundation lifting and repositioning techniques to ensure your property is raised back to its original height or a safer position. One of the most common solutions is hydraulic jacking, which lets us lift your foundation safely and evenly before securing it with support piers and backfilling.

 

We prioritize safety and efficiency at all times. Our team will carefully evaluate and monitor your home’s condition after every lift, ensuring no further damage occurs.

Foundation Replacement

If your home has experienced severe foundational damage or is at high risk of structural instability, Queen Foundation Repair may recommend a complete replacement service. Our team can complete replacement projects safely, efficiently and with minimal disruptions.

 

The foundation replacement process includes completely removing your old foundation, designing a new one and then constructing and installing it. Our team will carefully plan and execute the replacement using the latest engineering techniques and in accordance with current building codes and industry standards. 

 

We will factor in your home’s size, current soil conditions and structural requirements to ensure maximum stability and a perfect fit.

How We Recognize

Signs of Foundation Settlement

Recognizing the signs of potential foundation settlement early means our foundation repair professionals can remedy the problem, preventing costly repairs and limiting the risk of further structural damage. Some common types of foundation settlement signs include:

  • Cracks in Walls or Floors: Notice any cracks appearing in your walls, especially near windows and doors? These can be indicators of foundation settlement.
  • Uneven Floors: Do you feel like your floors are sloping or uneven? This could be a sign that your foundation has settled unevenly.
  • Sticking Doors or Windows: Are your doors or windows suddenly difficult to open or close? Foundation settlement can cause shifts in the structure, leading to misaligned doors and windows.

If you notice one or multiple settling foundation signs, contact Queen Foundation Repair as soon as possible.
