Foundation Repair Photo Album: Helical Piers Installed in Oberlin, OH

A homeowner in Oberlin, OH was noticing that the addition of his home was sinking into the ground little by little each year. He wanted to fix the issue before it got worse so he had Cleveland Basement Systems expertly install helical piers to permanently stabilize the foundation. Take a look at the install process!
