How much should I pay for Foundation Repairs?

To stabilize the foundation system of your home, your foundation system may need Piers or Piles. You should retain a professional engineer to evaluate your home and determine if piers or piles are necessary.

However, if you decide to go directly to foundation companies then you should get a minimum of 3 opinion from 3 different foundation companies so you can compare and see if they all agree on the number of piers or piles needed to repair your foundation.

Piers are deep drilled shaft piers with a bell bottom and rebar. Piers are cast-in-place. Typically they can be spaced between 8' to 10' depending on the load applied.

Piles are small sections of concrete and typically spaced between 5' to 7' depending on the load applied.

Therefore, the number of piers will be less than the number of piles. Exterior piers cost between $300.00 - $350.00 per pier. Interior piers cost $575.00 a pier and No tunneling involved.

Piles cost between $250.00 - $350.00 a pile. Tunneling is involved and is not included in the cost shown. Tunneling is very expensive and will eventually cause a lot of issues under the structure.
