A homeowner in Alexandria, VA, began noticing unsettling signs of foundation settlement in their property, including cracks and subtle structural unevenness. Concerned about the potential long-term damage to their home, they reached out to NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair. The company promptly sent out a Design Specialist to perform a thorough inspection. During this assessment, the team confirmed that foundation settlement was the root of the problem, identifying areas requiring immediate attention.

Solution
To address the problem, NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair's experts excavated the affected area and installed helical piers. These specialized piers provided deep, secure support to lift the foundation back to its original position, ensuring long-term stability. One of the piers needed to be placed at an entryway with a concrete slab, requiring an additional step of replacing the slab for a polished, seamless finish. The homeowner was highly impressed with both the efficiency and care taken during the project. With their foundation restored and entryway renewed, they now have lasting peace of mind knowing their home is stable and secure, thanks to the expertise of NV Waterproofing & Foundation Repair.
