Do you have a leaning chimney or a front stoop or porch that has separated from your home? These may seem like smaller cosmetic problems with your home but in all actuality they are signs of a bigger problem. It could mean your foundation is settling or sinking and you are in need of foundation repair. United Structural Systems can, however, fix that leaning chimney, and get your stairs, stoop, or porch back to its original position with an installation of helical piers. We are the helical piers installation experts in the Chicagoland area, and can get your home back into good shape fast.
Using one of our free inspections, we can come to your home and evaluate these conditions. Usually one or two helical piers can be installed to fix a leaning chimney or problematic porch. If we can catch these problems early, they can be repaired before you have a much larger problem - foundation failure. It is important to have an engineer come out to your home and find the best solution for you. At United Structural Systems, we have expert engineers that can design a solution for your foundation problems.
Helical piers are usually installed with a helical screw anchor during installation. They are installed based on the weight of the structure you have that is faulty so they can handle the full load. Once they are installed, the load can be immediately shifted over to the piers. Helical piers are easy to install, there is little to no vibration during the process of installing the piers, and we can install them with little or no disturbance to your yard, home, or business.
