Your home in Bartlett, Illinois, Il is built on expansive soil which means that it is constantly shifting beneath your foundation. When this type of soil is dry, it shrinks and when it is wet it expands. As the soil is shifting and moving, so is your home's foundation. This movement of the foundation can lead to foundation failure. The professionals at United Structural Systems of Illinois has solutions if you find that you are in need of foundation repair
If you notice any of these signs of foundation failure, contact United Structural System of Illinois. We use underpinning products such as helical piers and steel piers to get your foundation back to its original level and structurally sound again. These piers are driven deep into the earth, through the unstable soil, to a solid bedrock. Once the piers are installed, they are individually load tested and then the entire structure is hydraulically lifted onto the piers, leveling your foundation.
Another sign of foundation failure is bowing walls. USS can repair bowing or leaning walls by installing helical tiebacks. These tiebacks will pull your wall back to its level position. We install helical tiebacks through a small hole inside your basement, then with outside excavation, the wall is immediately pulled back.
