After assessing the foundation's condition, our team determined that the sinking was caused by soil subsidence. If left unaddressed, this issue could potentially compromise the overall structural integrity of the house. To prevent further damage, we recommended the installation of helical piers, specifically designed to provide significant reinforcement for the foundation, especially in the local clay terrain.
