For many homeowners, the house they live in represents more than just a structure—it’s a place filled with memories, dreams, and a sense of security. This was exactly the case for Courtney and her husband, who cherished their beautiful two-story home. However, they recently noticed a troubling issue: part of their home was starting to settle, leading to cracks forming in their drywall.
When the foundation of your home begins to shift, it’s not only unsettling but can cause serious structural issues. For Courtney and her family, this meant a growing concern about the stability of their home.
That’s when Guardian stepped in.
Like many homes, Courtney’s house was showing signs of foundation settlement, a common problem caused by soil movement beneath the house. When the soil under the foundation shifts or erodes, it can lead to portions of the home sinking, causing visible issues like cracks in the walls, uneven floors, or doors and windows that no longer close properly.
For Courtney, the cracks in the drywall were just the beginning. Left untreated, foundation issues could have led to further structural damage, potentially putting their entire home at risk.
Guardian’s expert team quickly assessed the situation and determined the best course of action: installing 14 push piers. These steel piers are designed to stabilize and lift the settling foundation by transferring the weight of the house to deeper, more stable soil layers.
The process of installing push piers involves driving them deep into the ground until they reach load-bearing soil, then slowly lifting the home back to its original position. Not only does this solution prevent further settlement, but it also restores the structural integrity of the home.
Once Guardian completed the installation of the push piers, Courtney and her husband were able to breathe a sigh of relief. Their home was once again on solid ground—both literally and figuratively. The cracks in the drywall would no longer spread, and the couple could go back to enjoying their beautiful home without the looming worry of foundation problems.
