Here is a video that shows how to jack up a house or addition to a house to replace a rotten steel pier.

In this video I replace the steel piers that were holding up an addition to the house because several were rotten.

To do this I put jacks on either side of a temporary beam under the structural beam attached to the pier. This allowed for a large enough span to dig out the old steel pier. I placed two cinder block pads on either side of the beam. This allowed for one pad for the jack and one pad for additional cinder blocks as a safety measure if the jack failed.

Learn how to repair a step crack in cement foundation block as well as use inject crack sealer to fix a crack in the foundation footer. Don’t panic. All houses will settle over the years. This house is 60 years old and this is the only crack on the whole foundation. You always want to guide water away from the house and fix any cracks to prevent moisture getting into the basement or crawl space.

Important: When you suspect your foundation is shifting check some things out in your house. If the windows or doors are hard to open your house is settling. Cracks in drywall is also a sign of shifting. If it does not stop you will need to either place metal foundation support posts under your Joyce beams or have a professional dig up and re-support your foundation footer. This could cost up to ,000 dollars to fix.
