Foundational Services

At Central Builders Group, we understand the vital role that a solid foundation plays in the safety and longevity of your home or commercial property. From sinking foundations, collapsing crawl spaces, or simply needing a new installation, our team of experienced professionals is here to provide expert solutions. We offer a range of foundation services, including helical piers, push piers, crawl space support, and traditional foundations, all tailored to meet your unique needs. With over 20 years of industry experience, we take a meticulous approach to ensure that your foundation remains stable, strong, and long-lasting. From initial consultations to post-installation support, we prioritize precision, quality materials, and customer satisfaction to give you the best possible foundation services for your property.

Our commitment is to create a functional and comfortable environment that everyone in the building can call home.

Helical piers are advanced foundation solutions designed to stabilize and support structures in areas where traditional methods may not be sufficient. These screw-like devices are driven deep into the ground, reaching stable soil layers beneath. They’re ideal for locations with unstable or shifting soil, providing the necessary support even when soil conditions change. The helical design allows them to be installed with minimal disruption to the surrounding area, making them perfect for areas where heavy equipment cannot be used.


Additionally, helical piers are ideal for areas that are prone to expansion or contraction, such as regions with clay-heavy soil. They offer long-term durability and can be adjusted if further shifting occurs, making them a reliable option for ensuring the stability of your foundation for years to come.

Push piers are used to restore structural integrity to a foundation that has settled unevenly or is showing signs of shifting. Installed by hydraulically pushing steel pipes into the ground until they reach stable soil or bedrock, push piers to provide strong and level support for your structure. Unlike other methods, push piers can provide both vertical and horizontal support, which is crucial for preventing further settling or tilting. This solution is highly effective for homes and buildings with foundation issues caused by weak or eroded soil.


Push piers can also lift and stabilize buildings, returning them to their original level. They require minimal excavation, meaning less disruption to your property and landscaping than other foundation repair methods. Push piers offer a cost-effective solution to settling foundations, extending the lifespan of your structure while keeping your property safe.

Crawl space foundations often experience problems due to moisture, settling, or sagging beams. Installing support systems such as crawl space piers and stabilization beams ensures the long-term integrity of the structure above. Our crawl space solutions help prevent sagging floors and uneven settlement by reinforcing the foundation’s support points. Over time, inadequate support or moisture build-up can cause issues such as warped floors or misalignment of structural components.


Addressing crawl space support early prevents these problems from becoming significant concerns down the road. Whether it involves raising a sagging foundation or reinforcing weak areas, our solutions work to provide the stability necessary for your property’s longevity. Proper drainage and air circulation are key in preventing mold and mildew growth, which our team ensures is considered when repairing and reinforcing the space beneath your home.

For traditional foundation work, we specialize in everything from poured concrete slabs to basement foundation systems. Concrete slabs are among the most common foundation systems for residential and commercial properties. They act as both the floor and the foundation, offering a cost-effective solution for many projects. However, when constructing a slab, it’s critical to properly compact the soil and install a vapor barrier to avoid moisture buildup.


We also handle full basement foundations for properties that need additional space or local conditions require additional strength. Basements can provide useful additional space for storage or living areas, but they require detailed planning to ensure proper waterproofing and drainage. Our experienced team handles all types of traditional foundation systems with precision, providing a solid, durable foundation that can support your structure for many years.

Common Mistakes

When it comes to foundation work, small oversights can lead to significant issues down the line. Often, these mistakes go unnoticed until they cause major damage to the structure or lead to costly repairs. Understanding and avoiding common mistakes during foundation installation or repair is crucial for ensuring the longevity and stability of your building. Here are some of the most frequent errors:

  • Lack of proper soil testing
  • Underestimating liquid and moisture drainage deeds
  • Using incorrect foundation type

Risks

Neglecting proper foundation installation or repair practices can introduce a range of risks to the long-term stability of your building. While some issues may take time to surface, others can immediately compromise the structural integrity. 

Structural instability is one of the primary concerns, as foundation problems left unaddressed can cause the entire building to shift or settle. This can lead to visible cracks in walls and floors, as well as creating extremely dangerous conditions for occupants. Additionally, water damage and moisture accumulation can wreak havoc on a foundation if drainage is insufficient or waterproofing is improperly done. Trapped moisture can cause mold growth, weaken structural elements, and, over time, compromise the integrity of the foundation.

Delaying repairs leads to significantly higher costs, as neglecting foundational issues causes the damage to worsen, making the fix more invasive and expensive over time. Beyond the financial strain, there are also legal risks to consider. Failing to adhere to local construction codes or obtain necessary permits could result in violations and fines. It may even require redoing parts of the project to comply with regulations.

Lastly, foundation issues can cause problems with insurance and future property sales. Insurance claims may be impacted, and future damage discovered could lead to legal complications, jeopardizing both the safety of the building and the financial security of the property owner.

Foundational work is clearly one that needs to be done right. Using a trusted professional can ensure that your foundation remains strong and the building’s structural integrity is sound.
