Owasso, Oklahoma Pierman Foundation Repair Services

The weather in Owasso, Oklahoma can affect homeowner and business owner's foundation. When the soil beneath your foundation gets saturated from the heavy rains that Oklahoma sometimes gets, the soil will heave. Also, Oklahoma can have times of very dry weather. When the soil gets too dry, it will shrink. With this constant shifting of the soil beneath your foundation, this causes the foundation to shift and settle, causing structural damage. Some of the signs to look for around your home to see if you are in need of foundation repair are:

• Floor cracks
• Sloping and uneven floors
• Wall cracks
• Doors and windows that stick
• Ceiling cracks
• Leaning chimney
• Brick and masonry problems
• Garage foundation problems
• Beam and post problems
• Bowing walls

If you see any of these signs of foundation failure in your Owasso, OK home or business, the experts at Foundation Repair Services has the products and experience to get your foundation back to its original level and make it structurally sound again.

We use underpinning products such as steel push piers and helical piers to level your foundation. These piers are driven deep into the soil through the unstable soil layer until they reach a solid soil layer. Each pier is individually driven into the ground and then load tested. After installation, the entire structure is lifted onto the piers to level and stabilize it for years to come. These piers are manufactured by Earth Contact Products (ECP), the leading manufacturer of foundation repair products made in the industry.

Pierman Foundation Repair Services also uses helical tiebacks to pull bowing or leaning walls back to their original level. They are installed through a small hole that is drilled through the wall, then with exterior excavation, the wall is pulled back to its original level. This will also give the wall strength so that it will not experience any future problems.

If you are experience any type of foundation problems, let the professionals at Pierman Foundation Repair Services come and give you a free inspection and find the best solution for your foundation repair needs.
