Foundation Repair Photo Album: Foundation Repair in Westerville, OH

Nate and Lane installed helical piers to support this leaning chimney in Westerville OH. Chimneys will sometimes fail when they have a missing or inadequate chimney footing. When this occurs, your chimney has not been designed with the proper structural support, and it must fail over time.

Finished Repair

The backfilled soil will need time to naturally settle back into place after the repair.

Helical Pier

To repair a tilting chimney, we at Mid-State Basement Systems recommend stabilizing it with a helical pier system. These foundation piers include a helical blade that allows the piers to be driven (or "screwed") deep into the ground to stronger supporting soils.
