Foundation repair
A foundation problem, quite simply, is a breakdown of the base of your home. The term “foundation settlement” describes the moving of the Corpus Christi soil on which a foundation is placed. The soil in the Coastal Bend is made up of sand and clay, which expands with rain moisture and flooding and contracts and shrinks when there is drought or little rain.
There are two types of foundations. First is a pier and beam foundation, which is found mostly in older homes, and second is a concrete slab foundation, now the most common.
When the beams that form the perimeter of the home or the short supporting piers inside the perimeter break down, Eagle Foundation draws on its years of experience to determine one of several methods to repair the issue. The “crawl space” under the home allows access to make repairs. Often, pier stacks or wood must be replaced, but sometimes all that is needed is shimming. This is filling the space with a wedge of wood to slightly lift the house.
Different methods are needed for a big slab of concrete. Eagle Foundation determines where the slab is sloping down and installs concrete pilings to level and firm up the foundation. The pilings are pushed into the earth with a hydraulic pressure tool and the side of the home is raised.
A checklist of inspectors, including a general inspector, hydrostatic inspector, and foundation inspector, will review your home to assure that we have assessed and corrected the issue properly as we work on the project.
Every home has the potential for foundation problems, but Eagle Foundation experts have the knowledge necessary to repair all types of foundation issues.
