Photo Album: Sloping Home Stabilized in Cedar Rapids, IA

The owner of this home in Cedar Rapids was troubled by his sloping foundation, so he called the experts at MidAmerica Basement Systems. The team installed Helical Piers to permanently stabilize the home. The owner is relieved to have a supported home and is impressed with the minimal disturbance from installation!

Helical Piers

The first section that is advanced into the ground has one or more helix shaped blades welded to the shaft.

Ensuring Quality Every Step

The team has a check system that ensures accurate installation every step of the way!

Steel Brackets

Heavy duty steel brackets are installed under the footing of the foundation.

Hydraulically Driven

The piers are hydraulically driven into competent soil.

Backfilled

Once the desired depth is reached the weight of the home is transferred through the piers to competent soils and then the team back fills the area to complete the project.
