Lexington Foundation Repair

Bowing walls, a sinking house and cracked concrete floors could mean that your house or business has foundation issues.

United Structural Systems Ltd., Inc. has a trained foundation repair and basement waterproofing team ready to evaluate your Lexington home or business, and give you a free estimate. We specialize in foundation repair, waterproofing and wall realignment. Every foundation is different and our team is vigorously trained to handle any foundation and can work with you to determine the best way to lift and stabilize your commercial or residential property.

Commercial Services

United Structural Systems, Ltd., Inc. provides vertical and lateral application of support material to lift and support your foundation, as well as guard against future damage. Waterproofing could entail encasing the exterior wall or installing a drainage system to remove the water. We offer other services, including slab repair brackets, retrofit brick ties, and benchmarking. No matter what kind of commercial foundation repair needs you have, our expert foundation repair team can help you and your business.

Vertical Applications

Any vertical settlement to your commercial foundation should be addressed with vertical applications by USS KY. Our vertical foundation repair solutions include auger cast piles, caissons, aggregate piers, helical pull-down micropiles, and more.

Lateral Applications

Lateral applications are best applied to foundation settlement caused by horizontal movement in the soil your building sits on. We often use different kinds of tie-backs to anchor structures back into place and prevent further movement. Whether you need helical tie-backs, soil nailing, slope stabilization or other lateral solutions, we can assess the damage and figure out the perfect choice.

Commercial Waterproofing

If you’ve avoided water damage so far it doesn’t mean your commercial building isn’t at risk of it in the future - waterproofing is a great preventative measure. Avoid the damage to goods as well as your building itself by preventing any moisture infiltration with waterproofing from USS KY.

Other Commercial Services

We are proud of the variety and quality of the commercial services we offer. In addition to the services already mentioned, we also do:

• Pressure grouting, also known as mudjacking, where we lift concrete slabs by drilling small holes and pumping in a grout to lift the slab back into place.
• Polyfoam injections for concrete leveling are similar to pressure grouting, only instead of a concrete grout, we pump in high-density polyurethane foam that will expand and lift the concrete into place.
• Helical slab repair brackets, which are a type of steel pier that is dug deep into the soil to stabilize concrete slabs with heavy loads.
• Retrofit brick ties were originally designed to reinforce brick walls of flooded buildings. Installed from the interior walls and anchored in place, they can be used in any interior renovation of masonry walls.
