I do this everyday for a living hand digging holes carrying piers the whole 9 yards great animation really puts things in perspective

Great illustration of re-leveling the perimeter foundation. Here in Christchurch, New Zealand we used different method such as under-pinning, screw piling jacking and slab jacking in re-leveling earthquake damage homes. A combination of mechanical jacking, the use of flowable grout and high pressure cement grout application.

Awesome animation of how releveling of a ring foundation is undertaken/completed. We undertake a similar method here in Auckland, New Zealand, however use a pressurized cement grout to "in fill" any gaps created by lifting of the footing or slab. We also cut and insert jacks directly beneath the footings and support and manually lift the mid floor bearers ( if applicable ). Great video guys from Access Foundations and Houselifting

Foundation repair solutions at its best! Awesome vid!

[@SkillBuilder]

Great idea. Is there a tendency for the foundation to tip inwards if all the lift is on the outside edge?

[@crackedslab6386]

nice detailed video on repairing the home foundation

[@JjoshD]

hi, how can you be sure the strip foundation (which is designed for a uniform bearing surface) will be able to withstand the point loads from the new Pier footings you would install?

Does installing the push pier sections cause vibration in the house? Do you install one pier at a time or add sections to each support so that the whole section is improved evenly? What are the chances of long term settlement for the push piers?

[@ragmon331]

can this method be used to lift/level a house that is leaning or has lowered on one of the corners?

[@floridaman6982]

One company out of 3 is recommending AP-430 chemical grout after the lift. This is not the same as the poly foam im getting from the other two and this video. What’s the difference and is it important?

[@ELLEON1959]

Sounded just like what I needed then clicked on website and see they are out of California. A little far to come to Texas to help my little project....

[@casualbillionaire]

Hi, I had this done on my cracked concrete slab foundation but the company did NOT perform step 9 (filling voids with foam). Is that a problem? Thank you!

[@crimony3054]

Shouldn't the fill be added before the hydraulic pressure boosting the piers is removed? Then the structure will come to rest on the fill and and piers evenly, instead of greater stress on the piers alone.

I once repaired a foundation by digging 6 foot depp holes around the foundation and pouring large blocks of concrete every 5 feet or so. It required a backhoe, plywood forms, yards and yards of concrete, rebar, going under the house and jacking up beams. even then it was still sitting on dirt. This seems a lot easier.

[@zorigtogomboev588]

will not hydraulic pressure distribute to different pillars at different time? So far as I remember, on some mechines, such as lifting of a grass cutter platform from both sides of a tractor, it is lifted in different pace, one side would alway be slightly later than the other. Just curious, reality makes me think like this.

[@redsky7238]

In a home with poured concrete basement walls can the piers be placed inside to jack the foundation? Excavating all the way down would destroy the garage slab and basement widow wells.

[@vail8150]

Very nice animation...thanks for sharing. May I link the video from my website?

[@samsonn25]

Thats pretty intense

[@FirstLast-fr4hb]

Why porus foam? Why not something solid like.... rock? or concrete? And why leave all that pipe in the ground? I'm guessing because pulling it out would leave some minor sinkhole effect?

[@ramsinlarios641]

where can i buy these type of equipment ?
