Interesting to hear your experience with helical piers—I was initially skeptical about them, but your results sound promising. Still wary of foam injections though... seems more like a temporary fix than a long-term solution.

I share your caution regarding foam injections—cost-wise, they seem appealing initially, but I'm concerned about their durability over time. Has anyone here seen foam injection hold up reliably beyond a few years?
I share your skepticism about foam injections. When we were initially researching foundation solutions, foam seemed attractive from a budget standpoint, but after chatting with neighbors who tried it, I'm hesitant. One mentioned noticeable settling again after just two years, which isn't exactly reassuring. Maybe it depends on the soil or climate...but I'd rather invest a bit more upfront than risk frequent fixes later on.
We had a similar experience with foam injections on a smaller project—initially seemed great, but after about three years, we noticed some unevenness creeping back in. Wonder if it's more about soil prep or just the foam itself...? Either way, I'd probably reconsider next time around.
We've seen similar issues pop up, and from what I've noticed, soil prep plays a huge role. Foam can be solid, but if the underlying base isn't stable or compacted properly, you'll eventually get movement again. Definitely something worth reconsidering next time around.
