This house is not moving downhill in one whole piece. It is moving in pieces. The house is literally coming apart or separating. Mountainside creep is pulling the house apart as it slowly moves the house downhill. Here is a link to a photo and description of mountainside or hillside creep www.flickr.com/photos/usnationalarchives/3972031794/in/ph...
The tie beams are a part of the design that will stablize the house and stop the house from slowing sliding downhill and from being pulled apart. As the name suggests, the house is being tied together by beams.

This wall is pushing in or also know as a bowing wall or buckling wall or bulging wall. That means that pressure from the outside is moving this wall. Our expansive soils in Colorado will expand and contract and that pushes against the wall causing cracking, bowing, buckling, tilting - all horizontal movement.

The garage slab has areas sloping toward the house and garage foundations. Lots of cracking as well.
This is great information for slabs in the greater Denver area: www.denverfoundationrepair.com/about-us/post-2262-slabs-a...
Wall Anchors can be installed in either finished or unfinished basements with a minimal amount of disturbance. Please notice how flat to the surface of the foundation the wall plate is.
The anchor is buried deep in the virgin soil. It anchors the foundation wall to a stable area. These anchors can have a bearing surface of up to 480 square inches. That is awesome holding power!

This corner of the foundation is settling. It will need piering. Only 3 piers are necessary to stabilize and lift. Check out this to see how piers are installed: www.denverfoundationrepair.com/foundation-settlement/pier...

Once the piering process is complete, all support systems are out of sight! Piering the house from the inside is cost effective because on the outside of the home, Peak's crew starts at ground level; but, on the inside, Peak's crew starts well below ground level. New concrete fills in the excavation for the piers and levels off the floor. Now, the carpet padding and carpet that was pulled back can be put back to where it belongs. Very little evidence, if any at all, of the construction process! What a difference! For more information, contact Peak Structural. We’re located at 600 17th St. Suite 2800 South, Denver, CO 80202. You can contact us at 303 243 3028 or go to www.peakstructural.com
