In Reply to: foundation Posted by: ron solomon on August 17, 1999 at 14:24:16:

: Our front porch foundation is made of blocks with block pillars at both ends supporting the roof. At one end the walk is giving away and the pillar to the porch is starting to move away from the foundation. What is the best thing for me to do? Thanks Ron

Ron
I sounds as if the footing is moving allowing the block to settle. You are probably going to have to dig down and pour a new footing and relay the block.
