Subdivision homes on piers set into graded fill. The fill keeps compacting and the piers go with it.
In Centerville the pier and beam problems are usually about what the piers are standing on. These are subdivision homes built from the eighties onward on graded lots, and the fill placed during that grading keeps compacting for decades after the closing.
The framing above is normally in good condition. What has moved is the support. A pier set on fill drops as the fill densifies, the girder above it sags toward that point, and the floor follows. It typically shows on one part of the house, matching where the fill was placed.
The repair takes the support down to ground that will hold. New footings are excavated past the fill, piers get reset or rebuilt on them, adjustable steel supports go in where a span needs more, and the floor comes back gradually toward the elevation of the stable side of the house.
The scope is fixed before we start on a Centerville home, so nothing gets added once the crew is underneath.

Trench Guys came to my home and corrected a sagging kitchen floor. They did a great job and guarantee their work for 10 years! I absolutely will be calling them anytime I need help.
I don't usually write reviews but John and his crew are absolutely awesome. They did my crawl space encapsulation. I got other quotes - don't waste your time with the other guys. Outstanding service at an incredible price!
