This porch in Alexandria, Kentucky, was sinking into problematic soil. We stabilized the porch by underpinning the foundation with a helical pier system. Our helical piers are drilled down vertically underneath the porch, and they are able to reach load-bearing strata - which is found deep below the earth. After we drilled them down, we then latched them onto the foundation of the porch by using our bracket system. The brackets help transfer the weight of the porch to the load-bearing strata the piers are secured in. After attaching them to the foundation, we are then able to lift the foundation back up using hydraulic fluid. After the system was installed, we then concealed the piers with a dirt backfill. This porch is now protected against settlement for the entire life of the structure.
A homeowner in a neighborhood off E Main St in Alexandria, KY reached out to us after noticing signs of settlement near the corner of their home. Upon inspection, we found that part of the foundation had begun to sink, putting stress on both the structure and the homeowner’s peace of mind.
To stabilize the home, our team recommended installing helical piers. Because there were plumbing lines and an exterior French drain running just above the footer, we couldn’t bring in heavy equipment. Instead, our crew carefully hand-dug around the utilities to ensure nothing was damaged during the installation.
Once the area was prepared, we wrapped the settling corner with helical piers, transferring the home’s weight onto stable soil below. The result was a reinforced foundation and the peace of mind that this Alexandria home will remain safe and stable for years to come.
A homeowner in Alexandria, Kentucky, reached out to us after struggling with water intrusion and damp conditions in their basement. The space was musty, uninviting, and at risk for long-term moisture damage if left untreated.
To solve the problem, we installed our WaterGuard® interior drainage system around the full perimeter of the basement. Water collected by the system is directed to a TripleSafe® sump pump, which provides powerful and reliable pumping — even during power outages.
To improve air quality and prevent moisture buildup, we added a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier, one of the most efficient systems available for basement environments. Finally, we finished the walls with BriteWall® panels, which not only brighten the space but also help guide any wall seepage down into the drainage system.
Now the basement is dry, bright, and protected — a complete transformation that gives the homeowner peace of mind year-round.
