The goal of sinkhole repair is to stabilize the area and prevent the sinkhole from reappearing. That means finding and eliminating the cause of the sinkhole. If water caused the sinkhole – and it usually does – then we need to get the water under control.

Have you noticed sticking windows and doors in your Murfreesboro home? What about bowing walls or cracks in your basement? These could all be indications of a foundation problem, and you don't want to wait to call for an inspection. Fortunately, USS is here to help. We have spent the last 30 years restoring foundations across Tennessee, so we know how to assess your property, whether it's commercial or residential, to find the best and most cost-effective solution for you.
One of the most reliable methods for foundation stabilization and repair in Murfreesboro are is foundation pier systems. With piers, we can lift and level a damaged foundation, as well as larger concrete steps and porches. There are several different types of products we use for foundation stabilization and repair in Murfreesboro, but they all follow the same essential concept: a long metal shaft that is hydraulically advanced into deeper, more stable soils than the dirt currently surrounding the foundation. This surrounding dirt is likely backfill that is poorly compressed, meaning it is riddled with air pockets and constantly shifting, causing the foundation itself to move and sustain damage.
Foundation piers are attached to a metal bracket fastened to the house or commercial building, anchoring the foundation to more stable soil and helping distribute the weight evenly. The number of piers needed and their arrangement on your property will depend on the unique aspects of your foundation, so the team at USS will design a tailored pier system for your Murfreesboro property.
At no additional charge, we offer transferable lifetime warranties on our foundation repair and waterproofing services.
There are two main types of foundation pier systems we use in our Murfreesboro work:
Push piers—like nails, these straight and smooth metal rods are pushed directly into the ground. Helical piers—like screws, these metal rods have helical plates on one end and are rotated into the ground. United Structural Systems is proud to be a trusted name for foundation stabilization and repair in Murfreesboro, and our experts can determine whether you are a good candidate for a pier system. Foundation repair is not only something that needs to be addressed immediately but it's also one of the best investments you can make in the longevity of your home or business.
