Foundation Repair Smyrna, Georgia

For over 30 years Atlas Piers of Atlanta has exclusively installed steel foundation products and shoring systems to lift and/or permanently stabilize building foundations throughout the Southeastern United States. 

Foundation repair is an important service in Smyrna, Georgia, near the Atlanta area. This area of Georgia is prone to severe weather and the occasional sudden change in temperature. These conditions can cause several different types of foundation failure. That is why it is important to check your home and foundation for signs of structural problems and water problems, as many of these problems indicate an issue with the foundation. Atlas Piers of Atlanta is proud to serve the city of Smyrna with our quality foundation repair solutions. 

Our commercial foundation and geotechnical capabilities include:

Elevator Pit Foundations

Constructing elevator pits requires precise excavation, engineered shoring, and deep foundation support to ensure vertical transport systems perform safely and reliably. We assess site conditions and execute pit excavation with temporary or permanent earth retention systems as needed, followed by durable foundation installation to support elevator loads. 

Geotechnical Shoring & Earth Retention Systems

For projects with deep excavations, adjacent structures, or unstable soils, our geotechnical shoring solutions provide essential lateral support throughout construction. We implement temporary and permanent earth retention systems based on soil conditions and engineering requirements to protect your site and surrounding infrastructure. 

Deep Foundations for Heavy Loads

Whether you’re supporting telecom towers, bridge abutments, or large industrial facilities, we install deep foundation systems—including driven piles, drilled shafts, helical piles, and resistance piers—to transfer loads to competent strata and ensure long-term performance under heavy structural loads. These solutions are engineered for projects where shallow footings simply won’t suffice. 

Underpinning & Foundation Support for Complex Projects

When new construction or expansion demands extra structural support, our underpinning and foundation reinforcement services integrate with your build plans to enhance stability. We collaborate closely with design teams to ensure solutions align with project specifications and performance goals. 

Coordination With Engineering & Construction Teams

Large commercial projects require seamless integration with architectural and engineering plans. Our professionals work directly with your structural engineers to interpret geotechnical data, recommend foundation systems, and execute field work that adheres to industry standards and project milestones.

Do not hesitate to contact a repair expert if you see any of these issues in your home. The longer you wait to repair foundation problems, the more complicated and expensive the repairs will become. Foundation problems are caused by excess moisture and shifting soils. If the water in the soil leads to erosion or increased hydrostatic pressure, the foundation may start to settle, or to develop foundation cracks. Soil shrinkage and settlement can lead to the formation of voids under the foundation, a common cause of sinking and settlement, as well as foundation cracks.

To support and lift settling and sinking foundations, we can use one of our quality underpinning solutions. Installing helical piers or steel push piers to stabilize the foundation is usually the preferred solution. These piers are screwed or driven depending on the type of pier, into the stable soils deep underground, and the weight of the foundation is transferred onto them to relieve the foundation.

For shifting foundations, helical tiebacks can be installed to pull the foundation wall back into place and close wall cracks. These devices work much like large screws, anchoring into the yard adjacent to the foundation wall and applying opposite pressure to counteract the bowing or leaning wall. Carbon fiber strips can also be used to straighten and strengthen the walls. These strips add the necessary stabilization to correct bowing and close cracks.

For basement or crawlspace water issues, we can install a vapor barrier with our wall encapsulation services. In this process, the vapor barrier is installed all along the interior surface of the area. This helps prevent water seepage thorugh cracks or through the porous concrete of the foundation walls to keep moisture out of your home.
