Exact number after on-site assessment.
/// Process

4 Steps. No Theatre.

01

Survey

Laser-leveled elevation readings at all exterior corners. Interior floor slopes noted.

02

Bore

2–3 test borings to understand what the original footing is sitting on and where competent strata are.

03

Design

Pier count, type, and depth engineered to the actual load and soil.

04

Lift

Synchronized hydraulic lift. Doors close, cracks tighten, floors level over 1–2 days.

/// Questions

FAQ.

01Can you fix the cracks in my drywall too?+
The structural lift closes most cracks as the house returns toward level. Cosmetic drywall/paint/tile is typically done separately by your finish trade, but we coordinate with them.
02Will settlement come back?+
Not through the piers — they transfer load to load-bearing strata below the problem soil. The lifetime warranty covers it.
