[DIY] Re: Found some problems with the foundation

So from what you have descriped I am going to be Weeeellll ... my brother successfully repaired my dad's pier & beam house foundation (one corner was sagging badly) by using a car jack to get it back into place and then shoring up the foundation. But frankly, my dad's house is a structural disaster anyway (it is a 1920's "catalog house" that was built by amateurs, then moved to a new location by more amateurs and plopped on top of a rickety foundation -- yikes!) so if he had messed it up further instead of fixing it, it would not have been a great loss. But iffen it was me, I wouldn't take chances with the foundation of a decent house. Just my .02, of course! Ann
