American Foundation & Basement Repairs has a many answers to your foundation repair needs in TN.

These galvanized steel foundation push piers can quickly be installed all year round without the use of heavy equipment, usually within a day.

Helical Pier Systems

For porches, patios, and other lighter structures that are bending and showing fatigue, American Foundation & Basement Repairs installs the Foundation Supportworks line of Helical Pier Systems. Helical piers are systematically screwed into the ground to stabilize your Tennessee home. Often times, they are used as an alternative to the push pier system. They are ideal for new construction projects. Helical piers are usually installed with light construction equipment, but can be installed with manual equipment in hard-to-reach areas.

Basement Wall Anchors

Cracking and bowing of basement walls is a frequent problem for many Tennessee homeowners. These distorted walls are often a result of pressure from the soil around the foundation exceeding the structure’s load-bearing capacity. Basement wall anchors can help restore the unity of your home. They are a great alternative to restructuring your foundation walls or using other wall bracing systems.

Crawl Space Supports

The earth around your foundation TN often times shift and settle over the years. This occurs from having the soil routinely go from dry to wet, back to dry again. This natural process can result in sinking columns and sagging crawl space beams, which can cause your crawl space to settle. Inadequately-placed beams can also be overworked and start to sag, causing the flooring to bow as well. Our SmartJack Crawl Space Stabilizer has tough steel support beams specifically designed to stabilize your crawl space and restore your home back to normal.
