## Foundations in St. Francisville: what to know

St. Francisville, the West Feliciana Parish seat, was established in 1807 on a narrow ridge above the Mississippi — briefly the capital of the Republic of West Florida in 1810 — and it is the most historic town in our service area, surrounded by Rosedown, the Myrtles, Butler Greenwood and the Audubon State Historic Site. At about 148 feet, it also sits on very different ground from the rest of the Capital Region: the loess bluffs and Tunica Hills country, where wind-deposited silt blankets the uplands, as the LSU AgCenter notes for East and West Feliciana.

Loess stands in steep bluffs when dry but erodes readily and loses strength when saturated, so drainage around a house here matters as much as it does in the low country, for a different reason: concentrated runoff cuts channels and undermines footings and piers. Much of the town's housing is historic and raised, which calls for the most careful kind of work — gradual re-leveling on steel shims, concrete piers replacing failed brick ones, and sill repair — without harming original plaster and millwork. St. Francisville is about 35 miles from our base via US 61.

## St. Francisville foundation repair questions

### Do you work on historic homes in St. Francisville?

Yes. We lift gradually, set realistic targets rather than forcing old houses flat, and replace failed piers and sills with appropriate materials. For listed properties, check with the parish and any historic review requirements first.

### How much does re-leveling a historic home cost?

Re-shimming typically runs $1,500–$6,000; with pier and sill replacement, $6,000–$14,000 or more depending on the size and condition of the house.

### Why does drainage matter on the bluffs?

Loess erodes readily when water concentrates on it. Directing roof and yard runoff away from piers and footings prevents undermining.
