If you dropped an apple, would it roll to one side of your floor?  Are cracks developing in your foundation?  Do you feel worried that something is wrong with your house?

These are all symptoms of foundation settlement.  This problem can be caused from a variety of elements, most notably buried debris and poor soils.   

Northeast Helical understands the causes of foundation settlement.  Our staff is very experienced in diagnosing and permanently repairing sinking foundations using both helical pier and resistance pier technology.   These proven methods are cost effective and proven to stop a foundation in its place.

Foundation Underpinning

Knowing that foundation problems can be complicated, we will send out an experienced structural engineer to diagnose the situation.  We believe that only qualified individuals will best serve our clients, and that an engineered approach eliminates all guesswork from the equation. 

Our standard approach to solving your problem is outlined below:

1. An engineer from Northeast Helical determines the extent and probable cause of the settlement.  We determine exactly how much the foundation has settled with a laser level. 
2. Soil borings are advanced into the ground to confirm the cause of your problem.
3. The proper foundation repair technology is designed without guesswork.   
4. Northeast Helical arrives on site to repair the foundation.
