Did you post any more info anywhere? I’m very interested in how you did the foundation piers, and how much that cost.
This is my first post about the work - though i probably have a few about the frustration. They wanted to do 42 piers to level but we settled on 29 to stabilize. It was about $30k. We probably could have found someone cheaper but i went with a company with a good reputation. It's a 2000 sq ft house and it had a 4"drop corner to corner. The doors had been trimmed over the years and were trapezoids. To do the work they dug 2' holes about 6' deep. A guy gets in that hole and stacks 1' cement cylinders.
