Excellent video. Clearly not a lot of folks needing to discover this process on youtube, but this was very helpful to me.

Now i had a company put in piers and this setup except the company, dwyer, broke/ cracked the footing apart on one corner. This corner is now sagging considerably. Ive had them come back out 3 times to “fix” the issue but everytime they just dig the corner up and repressure the pier and just drive it further in the ground.. they’ve added 40 extra feet of pier onto the first time they did it totaling 120 feet on that one corner. But its still sinking just in that one corner.. like right now is about 2” down which is fucking up the everything inside.. they told me that the first time they did work they repoured some of that footing thatthey broke drilling into it but told me last time they were out that the footing is crumbled.. and were jacking the corner up via a steel plate they put the pinning on.. as of now i can hear a void under that corner.. about 5 feet in until the slab hits ground.. im not sure on what to do to fix this issue since they got god knows how much pressure either pulling or pushing on the house at the pier so adding a helical right there would do no good from the broken footer.. if i poured a new footing there in the corner and attached it to goid footing then i couldnt lift the corner back up. Now i couldnt lift the corner up from that pier and pinnig.. unless i undid it and not sure on the removal of those dudes.. theres piers on either side but that corner is just sinking.. about to just dig it up myself and loosen that pier from the pinning, lift the corner 1.5-1.75” with a bottle jack then reattach the pinning to pier with a steel plate to account forthe difference then tie into footing with rebar and fill the void with concrete and be done with it.. good idea or no?
