Our foundation contractors provide various types of foundation repair. One of them that we specialize in is pier and beam foundation repair.

Depending on when your home was built, you may have cedar piers or cinder blocks holding your home's foundation in place. Over time, cedar may rot from moisture or be attacked by wood-loving pests. In addition, cinder blocks may shift or break. As a result, either of these types of piers may fail, causing extensive damage to your home's foundation.

Pier and beam foundation is a beneficial foundation structure type. If there are ever any problems with pipes typically located underneath your home, these foundation structures make it easy to get under the house and resolve the issues. With basement or slab foundations, they may require extensive destruction of your foundation to get to the pipes to fix the problem. While this structure is very helpful, it can also cause problems. Here are some of the common issues that occur with pier and beam foundation homes:

• Collapse
• Shim failure
• Decaying beams
• Mold and mildew
• Cracking beams
• Poor construction
• Shifting beams

Problems with your piers and beams could lead to significant costly foundation issues. Your best defense against faulty piers and beams would be regular foundation inspections. We suggest at least twice a year to ensure that weather conditions haven't created significant issues with the soil that could affect your foundation.
