Steel Piering

Your residential or commercial foundation was at first built on level ground and was structurally composed out of concrete. Over time, natural influences such as rain, ice, earthquakes, and even poor soil can cause settling to occur in your home. Steel Piering is the process of lifting settled or sunken foundation and restoring it back to its original condition.

For over 20 years, we have repaired both commercial and residential foundations with our high-quality steel piering service Here are 5 steps we take to restore your foundation.

  • Expose the footing

The footing is exposed in the areas we intend to lift.

  • Install the bracket

Our company fabricated steel brackets are placed against the footing and secured in place.

  • Push the pipe

Once the pier is firmly seated on the bracket, three-inch pipe is hydraulically pushed into the ground until it strikes bedrock, lifting the foundation and restoring its position.

  • Secure and Pin

When the home is lifted, a pin is placed on the bracket to safely hold it in place against the footing.

  • Seal and repair

We cover the footing and fill any small exterior cracks of the newly restored foundation.We provide a no hassle warranty for ten years on each pier.

If you believe that your home shows signs of foundation settlement call Gugliotta Construction to receive an expert opinion. See our guide to identifying the top 6 six signs that you need foundation repair.

Polyjacking

Driveways or walkways will often settle from their original place due to drainage problems or ground settling after construction. Concrete lifting is the process of lifting this settled concrete. In the past, this was commonly known as “mudjacking” and used a mixture of mud, concrete, and other materials pumped under the settled concrete, forcing it to lift. Today, this can be done using a high-density foaming polyurethane mixture.

Instead of being forced to replace settled concrete, the poly lifting method can save you time, money, and inconvenience. Poly Lift can raise your driveway in minutes, you will be able to walk and park on the lifted concrete shortly after the process is finished! Poly Lift is considered to be the ideal solution for commercial and residential concrete needs.
