If you see any of these common brick problems in your home, call the brick repair team at Tar Heel Foundation Solutions as soon as possible to get the best repair options.
We offer the right foundation repair solutions to take care of brick cracks and other issues right away. Some of the foundation lifting and stabilizing techniques that we use include steel foundation repair products from ECP.
We offer helical piers as well as tiebacks and soil nails. Helical piers are like large steel stilts that are screwed into the ground under the foundation to lift settling slabs. For shifting foundations causing bulging foundation walls and brick movement, we offer helical tiebacks and soil nails, which pull the foundation into place for more stability. We can also install Rhino carbon fiber to strengthen and straighten foundation walls from the inside.
Brick repointing is another option available for some brick repair projects.
When utilizing brick repointing, every brick joint is replaced with new mortar. This process gives new life to your brick surfaces and the appearance is almost new!
If the brick problems in your home are due to moisture problems, we provide foundation drainage options to keep water away from your home. This drainage control means that your foundation will not be exposed to moisture since the water will be drained away from the concrete and the bricks.
