Effective Pier and Beam Repair in Winnipeg ​

Pier and beam foundation issues are more than worrisome. They threaten the comfort and safety of your home. That’s why we offer pier and beam foundation repair Winnipeg residents can trust to restore their homes’ structural integrity. A pier and beam foundation is also known as the crawl space foundation of a post and beam foundation. It’s a foundation that the contractor builds above the ground level, leaving a crawl space or a noticeable space beneath the home’s structure. This foundation can be more beneficial to a homeowner since it provides stability when the soils shift.

However, the crawl space it creates is often exposed to damage by excess moisture or standing water. This water can be from cracks in the exterior-facing concrete, a leaky pipe, worn out seals around windows, doors, and utility penetrations. Also, seasonal surges in storm runoff or groundwater can cause this water. Nevertheless, this moisture can cause serious problems, including mold growth, dry rot, and other issues. Faulty construction materials and methods can also cause pier and beam foundation issues. Moreover, dry rot or mold can also damage this foundation if it goes undetected for an extended period. Nevertheless, our crew can fix any issue with your pier and beam foundation.
