Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Settlement Stabilized in Point of Rocks, MD
Mary P. of Point of Rocks, MD, called Fortress Foundation Solutions with concerns about the foundation of her home. A large crack had been growing in the foundation and her porch roof was pulling away from the house. Our System Designer, Riley Ethier, was able to perform an inspection and provide a permanent solution. Riley knew the best solution was to install Push Piers. Our Push Pier System is installed under the footer of the home, supporting the foundation, preventing further settlement. Now this home's foundation is sound again!
