Foundation Barn Repair in Kokomo, IN
Challenge
John is the owner of a unique barn from the early 1900s that has stood the test of time. However, the barn had some major foundation issues and John choose to have it fixed rather than knock it down, because of its sentimental value. The foundation issues were severe and put the barn at risk of collapsing if not repaired correctly. Our Foreman Todd and his crew members Nolan and John faced significant challenges with this job. It was the first time that we had encountered foundation issues of such magnitude on an old barn. There was also significant debris in the barn that made it difficult move the excavator around to drill in the piers.
Solution
John found Basement Systems of Indiana at the Indianapolis Home Show and began having a conversation with our Sales Inspector Dave about how we could fix the foundation issues with the barn. Dave explained our Pier Systems that would stabilize the barn and eventually went out to inspect the barn in Kokomo for a closer look. Our Foreman Todd and his crew removed the debris and used a dumpster to make the process more efficient. They then began installing Push Piers to stabilize the beams in the barn with a heavy duty steel bracket. The soil was backfilled around the piers once stabilization and lifting was completed to finish the installation. This is the best foundation repair option available when soil conditions are unknown, providing a permanent solution for your settlement issues.
