Our expanding population requires more and more land for housing, both primary and recreational, business and industry, roads, airports, municipal services, etc. This demand has caused, and will continue to cause, development on less-than-adequate soils. This inadequacy generally translates into the settlement and/or heave of structures built on this soil.
Techniques for repair of these structures have varied. Everything from wood, concrete, cement and steel has been poured, pushed, turned or somehow forced into the ground trying to salvage these foundations. Early on, anyone and everyone, trained or untrained, became "experts" at foundation repair. Often as not, these repairs proved to be futile.

Underpinning
Report
Underpinning in a nutshell: Underpinning is a method used to increase the foundation depth to repair faulty foundations therefore suppling structural support to the footer. This might be the case if you plan to add stories to an existing structure or when your existing foundation has been damaged. Underpinning is also a method of lifting or stabilizing a sinking or settling foundation.
Wall Tie-Backs
Report
Wall Tiebacks When your wall has both cracking and moderate movement, you are a candidate for this type of repair. Wall Tiebacks are mainly used when the goal is to prevent any further lateral movement. The advantage to wall tiebacks is the cost factor. This type of repair is generally one half of the cost of rebuilding a foundation.
