Why are published prices so wide?
Foundation Select notes depth, access and who is quoting change the price, and says no industry body audits these figures.
How many piers does a house need?
Foundation Select cites a contractor estimate of roughly 15 to 25 supports for a typical house; yours depends on the plan.
