Foundation Repair for Orchard Hill homeowners
Orchard Hill sits on red clay over rock, and that combination gives foundations a particular character. The clay layer is limited in depth, so water that soaks in reaches stone and then moves sideways through exactly the zone where footings sit.
Most homes out here are older frame construction on brick piers, set on shallow footings or none at all. Those piers have carried the house for decades, and what eventually shifts them is water moving through that shallow clay layer and softening what they bear on.
The work is rebuilding the bearing. Piers get reset plumb on properly sized footings, additional support goes in where a span needs it, and floors come back toward level gradually. Where the clay layer is too shallow to give a footing what it needs, we go to the rock beneath it. Drainage gets corrected so the water stops working under the house.
Orchard Hill homeowners get the same scope every time, priced in writing before a crew books the date.
