Foundation Repair in Omaha, NE

The foundation at this Omaha home showed the classic signs of settlement common in Douglas County's clay soils, where moderate shrink-swell cycles create ongoing stress on structural elements. The interior inspection revealed a vertical crack in the foundation wall and visible structural displacement, indicating that foundation movement had already begun and required intervention to prevent further damage.

Epp Foundation Repair addressed the problem with push piers to stabilize the foundation and installed a comprehensive moisture management system combining interior drainage, a sump pump, and exterior yard drainage to redirect water away from the structure. The completed work included a new discharge system with white PVC piping and catch basin in the landscaped yard, while the interior was sealed and drained to protect the crawlspace from future water intrusion. The job was fully documented across 6 site visits with 115 on-site photos and a crew of 4 members to ensure quality control throughout the repair process.
