Trotter Company is a full service foundation repair/stabilization contractor. Most settlement problems are a result of structures being built on poorly compacted fill dirt, which has been infiltrated by storm water. Existing soil conditions can also cause settlement problems as well as poor construction. No matter why you structure is settling, Trotter Company can stabilize it! With 80 years working in our red clay, Trotter Company is the most experienced foundation repair contractor in Georgia. We are the only contactor to offer a Helical Pipe Pier as our standard pier. This pier offers the stability of a foundation provided by the Helix and the rigidity of the large diameter pipe pier. The overall strength of our pier is reinforced with a concrete, core. All major repair contractors are following Trotter Company’s lead and are promoting helical pipe piers.

Backfill Settlement behind foundation walls can cause walls to bow or even collapse. Foundation walls in the first stages of bowing (small horizontal cracks) can usually be stabilized with Carbon Fiber Reinforcement. Foundation walls that have been neglected and allowed to bow excessively will require Steel Beam Reinforcements. Some foundation walls may have to be completely demolished and a new reinforced foundation wall built to replace the failed wall. Landscape retaining walls that are leaning up to five inches may be stabilized with Helical Tie-backs.  We also demolish and replace landscape walls that are past saving with reinforced, anchored walls.
