The foundation showed a horizontal crack running through the brick and mortar joints at the base, along with efflorescence and mortar deterioration indicating settlement from seasonal movement. Charlotte's Piedmont clay swells with heavy rain and shrinks during dry periods, a cycle that shifts footings and opens cracks in masonry over time. The existing vapor barrier in the crawl space required replacement and the foundation needed structural support to arrest ongoing movement.
HydroHelp911 installed helical piers to stabilize the foundation and halt settlement, then performed crawl space encapsulation with a new moisture barrier system to control humidity and protect the structural elements. The crew also installed a vapor barrier and completed structural repair work to address the mortar deterioration and restore integrity to the brick walls. The job was fully documented across 11 site visits with 176 on-site photographs and the work of 4 crew members to ensure quality and accountability.
