Foundation problems never fix themselves! As long as foundation problems remain they will continue to worsen and they can seriously compromise the value of your home or building. The foundation of your home is perhaps the most important part of the structure your house is built on and if it is experiencing any problems, chances are, the rest of your home is too.

Some common signs of foundation problems include:

– Cracks in the walls, ceilings, or floors
– Sticking doors or windows
– Cracks in the foundation

If you see any or all of these signs, there could be a much larger, more serious problem at work in your home’s foundation. Barrier Waterproofing Systems utilizes some of the top solutions in the foundation repair industry: the DynaPier system. Using the combined strength of concrete and steel, DynaPier offers the best, most simple foundation repair solution to permanently repair and secure your most valuable investment, your home. The system is installed directly below the foundation.

The segments that make up the piers are hydraulically driven all the way down into the earth until they hit bedrock, or the load-bearing layer of strata. Other systems may require removal of large sections of your foundation footing. If piers are not installed to the correct depth, or aren’t designed to properly carry the load, there will be a risk of future failure. The concentrically loaded DynaPier can permanently lift and level the foundation of your home and, once completed, will provide complete support of your foundation making it stronger than the original. No other pier goes deeper.

One of our expertly trained technicians will evaluate your home to find the number of piers that are needed to repair the degree of damage your foundation has. We install the DynaPier system by positioning a starting segment below the foundation and mechanically push it into the soil. Additional interlocking segments are then pushed deeper until the pier reaches the bedrock or load-bearing strata.

Lastly, the DynaPier lifting platform is attached and hydraulic jacks lift and stabilize the structure of your home. Finally, steel shims are put into place and enclosed within the Peer cap. The resulting repair provides a permanent foundation settlement situation for your home or building. Have any questions about this foundation repair process?
