Knightdale, established in 1927, was named for Henry Haywood Knight who was a local landowner that donated land to fund a railroad depot. Knightdale is located in Wake County, North Carolina and is just east of Raleigh. The beautiful North Carolina weather allows Knightdale residents to enjoy all of its parks and trails majority of the year.
Like most of the Triangle, Knightdale is booming with new residents and new construction. Knightdale is currently home to over 17,000 residents and over 6,000 households. These homes are a healthy mix of both new and old.

Foundation Repair
Signs of Foundation Issues
Be alert for cracks in the walls, floors that are not level, and doors or windows that are difficult to open or close. These symptoms often point to underlying foundation problems that need immediate attention from a professional. Failure to address these issues promptly can result in more extensive damage and higher repair costs in the future.
Causes of Foundation Damage
Several factors can cause foundation damage, including unstable soil conditions, excessive moisture, termite infestations, and poor drainage. Additionally, natural occurrences like flooding, droughts, and earthquakes can progressively weaken the foundation. Improper construction methods and invasive tree roots can also contribute to the deterioration of the foundation over time.
Foundation Repair Solutions
Wood Damage Repair
Foundation wood damage requires addressing issues with components such as joists, girders, and subfloors. Techniques include sistering or replacing joists, repairing girders, fixing subfloors, and treating termite or water damage. These methods restore structural support and prevent further problems related to moisture or pests.
Typical signs of wood damage in a foundation are uneven floors, cracks in the walls, difficulty opening doors and windows, visible rot, dampness, and termite evidence. Prompt repairs are crucial to maintaining the structural health of your home and preventing additional damage.
Helical Piers
Helical piers, also referred to as helical piles or ground anchors, are used to support structures built on unstable or weak soil. These piers, which resemble large screws with helical blades, are driven into the ground with hydraulic equipment to reach stable soil layers.
Helical piers are versatile, making them suitable for both new construction projects and foundation repairs. They adapt well to various soil conditions, cause minimal disruption during installation, and offer immediate load-bearing support, ensuring long-term stability.
Wall Repair Systems
To address issues like bowing, cracking, or buckling in foundation walls caused by soil pressure, hydrostatic pressure, or settlement, wall repair systems are essential. Common solutions include the use of wall anchors, carbon fiber straps, and steel braces.
These repair methods collectively stabilize and reinforce foundation walls, restore their structural integrity, and can sometimes straighten bowed walls, ensuring the overall stability and safety of the structure.
Crawl Space Support Posts
Crawl space support jacks, also known as support posts, are critical for stabilizing and leveling floors that have sagged due to weakened joists. These jacks enhance the structural integrity of the home’s foundation.
Installed in crawl spaces, these support posts are positioned strategically under beams or joists that require reinforcement, ensuring that the floors above remain level and secure.
The Repair Process

The foundation repair process starts with a detailed inspection to assess the extent and underlying causes of the damage. Customized solutions are then applied, including wood damage repairs, installation of helical piers, wall stabilization techniques, or waterproofing. Each solution is tailored to the specific needs of the home. Throughout the process, efforts are made to minimize disruption to daily life while ensuring the foundation’s stability and safety.
Concrete Leveling
In Knightdale’s growing neighborhoods, sinking driveways, uneven front walkways, and cracked patios are a common sight. This damage usually happens when the heavy clay soil underneath the concrete washes away during heavy storms or simply compacts over time. Without solid ground to support it, the heavy concrete slab drops into the empty space, creating dangerous trip hazards and severely dragging down your home’s curb appeal.
Advanced Polyurethane Injection

Tearing out a sunken driveway to pour fresh concrete is loud, expensive, and takes days to finish. Elite Moisture Solutions relies on a much faster, permanent fix: high-density polyurethane foam injection.
To restore your slabs, our repair technicians drill small, barely noticeable holes into the sunken concrete and inject a specialized structural foam directly into the ground below. As this material reacts, it rapidly expands to fill every empty void, aggressively compacting the loose dirt and generating a precise upward lift that brings your concrete back to an even grade. Since our polyjacking foam is totally waterproof, it permanently seals the underside of the slab to block future soil erosion. The entire application is clean and cures fast enough that you can drive your car on the concrete just minutes after we finish.
