Finding a crack in your drywall should not be ignored. Not only will the crack cause water to leak into your home, but it can be a sign of foundation settlement. It is important to understand the cause of the crack and not try to repair it by just covering it up. This could lead to bigger problems. Learn if your drywall crack is a sign of foundation problems by calling Jerry’s Waterproofing. We can inspect your Nebraska home for drywall cracks and let you know if the problem is serious or not.

If it is discovered that your drywall crack is a result of a foundation problem, then underpinning is the process used to provide the support that your home’s foundation needs. Products used for underpinning are push piers or helical piers. Steel push piers are excellent for structural foundation repair for settling foundations. The function of these push piers is to support and stabilize the load-bearing walls by transferring the weight of the structure from weaker soils to the steel piers that have been driven deep into the ground to load-bearing soils. These push piers are the most common foundation repair product used today.
Each steel push pier is driven into the ground individually and the entire structure works as the reaction. During the load transfer, high-pressure hydraulic jacks are placed at multiple locations reducing the load on each pier.
Helical piers are excellent for foundation repair when light structural loads, unstable rock basements or very deep load bearing layers are present. These are also an excellent choice for foundation structural repair. The products we use are all made by Earth Contact Products (ECP), the leading manufacturer of basement waterproofing and foundation repair products in the industry.
