Quality and Dependable Foundation Repair Services

If your Pierre home needs foundation repair, Rapid Foundation Repair will be there to provide the services for you. By offering high-quality products from Earth Contact Products, you can be sure that what is being used to repair your foundation are some of the best.

Our solutions are tailored to your problems. If the damage has been caused by portions of the foundation starting to sink or settle, we can level or stabilize your foundation with a piering system. The piers will be sunk down until they reach a load-bearing strata of soil, load tested to ensure they can handle the weight of your home and then attached to the foundation footing with brackets. These piers provide your home with the stability that the shifting or loose soil beneath your home can not.

Depending on factors such as bedrock depth and soil condition, we can opt to install either steel push piers or helical piers, which are drilled into the soil. Either way, you are getting a top-quality steel pier without the long-term wear problems and long curing times that can come with concrete-based foundation repair solutions

Bowing Wall Repair

If, on the other hand, one of your basement walls has started to bow because of the hydrostatic pressure being exerted on them from the surrounding soil, we can solve that issue as well. Depending upon issues such as how much the wall is bowing, we offer both carbon fiber wall stabilization and helical tiebacks or plate anchors.

Carbon fiber repair is less intrusive, requiring no excavations because all of the work will be done inside the basement. The strips, which are attached above and below the wall, have the strength to stabilize the wall and prevent the bowing from getting worse.

Helical tiebacks and plate anchors, on the other hand, anchor the wall in the soil outside. Because of this, they usually require at least some excavation in your yard. On the plus side, however, this allows them to better straighten the wall along with stabilizing it. That can be an ideal option if the wall is bowing too far for carbon fiber to be effective.

Your Basement Waterproofing Source in Pierre, SD

Since your home is a huge asset, you will also want to be aware of the signs of water damage to your basement. Rapid Foundation Repair offers basement waterproofing options that will fit your budget.

We offer both interior and exterior waterproofing options, from applying a waterproofing membrane to the exterior of the basement walls to installing an interior drainage system complete with sump pump in your basement.

These waterproofing measures can prevent the damage that comes with a flooded basement and is especially important if you are planning to finish your basement.

Crawl Space Encapsulation in Pierre SD

If you are noticing signs of moisture on your pipes, or a musty smell coming from your crawl space, a wet area could be the cause. At Rapid Foundation Repair we offer crawl space encapsulation services. With crawl space encapsulation, we seal off your crawl space from moisture, including installing a tear-resistant vapor barrier on the crawl space walls and floor.

Encapsulating your crawl space can help prevent health problems by eliminating the growth of mold and mildew in the crawl space, stop structural damage from moisture-induced wood rot and even help keep pests out of your home.
