🪵 WOOD vs. STEEL — Which One Belongs Under Your Home?
Ever looked under a home and wondered why one foundation repair uses steel shims while another uses wood shims?
There’s a reason — and it comes down to how the home is built.
🔩 Concrete slab homes typically use STEEL shims at the pier-to-foundation connection because steel provides a strong, precise, durable connection beneath the concrete.
🪵 Pier & beam / crawl-space homes may use WOOD shims or blocking because the structure above the supports is already built with wooden beams, joists, and framing.
The key is using the right material, in the right location, for the right type of foundation.
Steel Shims vs. Wood Shims in Foundation Repair: Why Slab Homes Use Steel and Crawl-Space Homes Use Wood - Leon Foundation Repair Learn the difference between steel shims and wood shims in foundation repair, and why slab homes use steel while crawl-space homes use wood.
