In this photo, there are posts that are not properly supported with an insufficient footing which is greatly contributing to the homeowner's problems.
Push Piers Installation
coincidently the area of the home that was settling was on the same side that the entrance of the crawlspace was located. The concrete had to be removed to make room for the Push Piers to be installed to lift and stabilized the problem area of the home.
