Henryetta, Oklahoma Foundation Repair Solutions

If you live in Henryetta, Oklahoma, then you are probably aware of the fluctuating weather conditions year-round. Summer months are hot and humid, and winter months are extremely mild. These inconsistent weather conditions cause evaporation, leading to foundation problems over time. Foundation failure can also be caused by other soil-related factors that includes:

• Transpiration of Trees and Shrubs: This occurs from the evaporation of water from trees and plants. Maturing tree roots dehydrate the soil beneath the foundation, causing soil shrinkage and settlement.
• Leaky or Broken Underground Pipes: Leaky plumbing often causes foundation issues. Leaks may go undetected for years until foundation issues arise. If leaks go unrepairable, the foundation may shift or move.
• Poor Drainage: Constant moisture in concentrated areas can cause foundation problems. Make sure your gutters are free of debris and leaves to avoid saturated spots in your yard.
• Poor Soil Conditions: Clay soil, which is common in Oklahoma, can lead to foundation issues because of its properties. It swells when it absorbs water, and shrinks when it dries. These drastic changes create pressure against the foundation walls of your home, eventually forming cracks.
• Ground Preparation: Low density soils or improperly compacted soils underneath the foundation can lead to foundation failure over time. Before construction, make sure your home is built on stable soil to increase the life span of your foundation.

If you suspect foundation issues, look for the common signs of foundation failure. They include the following:

• Misaligned windows and doors
• Bowing or leaning walls
• Wall or floor cracks
• Water seepage through foundation cracks
• Sinking, shifting or settling foundation
• Leaning chimney
• Garage floor cracks
• Brick and masonry problems
• Sloped or uneven floors

If you notice any of these signs, don't ignore them. Contact FRS immediately to avoid further foundation issues and costly repairs. We offer effective foundation repair solutions such as helical piers, steel piers, helical tiebacks, and polyjacking. All of our foundation repair products are made by Earth Contact Products (ECP), the leading manufacturer in the underpinning industry.

Our piers are designed to lift your foundation back to its original position with minimal disturbance during installation. They are permanent foundation repair solutions that will restore and stabilize the value of your property for many years to come.

We install helical tiebacks anchors to support leaning, bulging, or bowing walls. These anchors are immediately tested and loaded requiring no excavation when removed. They are the most preferred because they can be installed in limited access areas.

When it comes to settling concrete slab, we apply polyjacking to the concrete surface. Polyjacking involves injecting a polyurethane foam under the concrete slab to fill in gaps and voids. It accurately lifts the concrete back to its original position without replacing the concrete.
