Foundation Repair in Omaha, NE: Push Piers, July 2026
The crawlspace beneath this Omaha home showed standing water, exposed soil, and deteriorated wooden structural elements, typical conditions in Douglas County where clay soils with moderate shrink-swell characteristics promote moisture retention and foundation stress. The exposed cinder block walls, debris-covered floors, and lack of moisture control systems indicated that water intrusion was ongoing and unmanaged.
Epp Foundation Repair installed interior drainage along the foundation perimeter, complete with white PVC piping and a collection basin to direct water away from the structure. The crew then encapsulated the crawlspace with a vapor barrier membrane and installed rim joist insulation to seal the space and control moisture. The completed work was thoroughly documented across 6 site visits with 80 on-site photos to ensure every stage of the repair met Epp's standards.
Completed and documented on site by Epp Foundation Repair’s field crew. Serving Nebraska homeowners since 1994.
