The technical approach involves excavating along foundation walls to drive steel push piers to load-bearing strata, then using hydraulic jacks to lift settled foundations back to their original elevation. For waterproofing, the company installs systems designed to permanently stop water intrusion, addressing the specific challenges posed by heavy clay soils in the region. The business also stabilizes basement walls and braces them to prevent further movement. Polyjacking work allows for the correction of uneven driveways, sidewalks, and patios without the need for tear-out or replacement, enabling the same-day use of the repaired surface. The company emphasizes honest assessments and fair pricing, with a transferable warranty on completed work.
