Seeing Parts of Your Home Sink or Settle?
When your foundation loses support, quick cosmetic patches won't stop the underlying settlement.
Cracks spreading through brick, block, or drywall
Doors and windows that stick, drag, or won't latch
Floors sloping, separating from baseboards, or feeling uneven
Memphis' clay-heavy, moisture-sensitive soils can swell, shrink, or wash out over time, leaving parts of your foundation without solid support. As the soil shifts or compresses, sections of your home begin to sink, tilt, and pull apart. Cosmetic patches don't stop the movement—and ignoring it can lead to more extensive structural damage. Our foundation piering solutions use steel and helical piers to transfer your home's weight down to stable bearing layers, then lift settled areas where possible. By addressing the problem at the soil level, piering helps re-support your foundation, reduce further movement, and protect your home for the long term.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT PIERING IN MEMPHIS
What is foundation piering, and how does it work?
Piering is a repair method that uses steel or helical piers installed beneath your foundation to reach stable soil. The weight of your home is transferred onto these piers, and in many cases we can carefully lift settled areas back toward their original position.
How do I know if my home actually needs piering?
Piering is typically recommended when parts of your foundation are sinking or settling unevenly. Common signs include stair-step cracks in brick, doors and windows that no longer close properly, sloping floors, and gaps opening around trim or countertops. During an inspection, we'll confirm whether piering is necessary or if another solution makes more sense.
Will piering fix all the cracks in my home?
Piering addresses the cause of many cracks—movement and settlement, but it doesn't "erase" every cosmetic issue by itself. Once the foundation is re-supported and lifted as much as safely possible, some cracks may close or improve. Others may still need separate cosmetic repair, which we'll discuss with you as part of the plan.
Is piering a permanent solution, or will my home settle again?
Piering is designed as a long-term solution. By driving piers down to stable bearing layers beneath Memphis's problematic surface soils, we create new, reliable support points for your foundation. While no contractor can promise that a home will never move again, properly installed pier systems greatly reduce the risk of future settlement in the treated areas.
How long does a typical piering project take?
Most residential piering projects take anywhere from a day or two to several working days, depending on the number of piers, access around the home, and weather conditions. We'll provide a realistic timeline with your written estimate before any work begins.
Will piering tear up my yard or landscaping?
There will be excavation along sections of the foundation. We work in focused areas, protect what we can, and restore the ground as best as possible afterward.
Can I stay in my home while piering is being done?
In most cases, yes. You can stay in your home while we install piers and perform any lifting. There will be some noise and vibration during certain stages, and we'll go over what to expect so you can plan around the work.
Is piering a permanent fix, and do you offer financing?
Piering is designed as a long-term solution because it bears on stable soil layers. We also offer financing options to make the investment more manageable.
