Foundation Repair Issues

There are many different foundation repair problems that can occur on a house. Here are a few of the most common foundation repair issues we run into:

• Bowing Foundation Walls begin to bow and buckle inward when the force against them exceeds their ability to withstand the pressure. Failing foundation walls will crack and leak, and if you have a finished basement, they can lead to cracks in the finished walls. Bowing walls may eventually collapse and should be addressed right away to prevent further damage to your home.
• Sinking Floors over crawl spaces – Floors over crawl spaces begin to sink in three scenarios: When there are too few supports, when the supports begin to sink into the ground, and when the structural wood holding up your floor begins to rot and grow mold. When crawl space structures experience settlement, the entire home above can begin to show damage. Drywall will crack, doors will stick and floors will become uneven. If the crawl space is damaged by mold, there may also be moldy, musty odors upstairs.
• Foundation settlement and cracking occurs when the soils beneath the foundation are unable to support the weight of the structure. A settling foundation could mean a great deal of damage to your home — including cracked brick walls, cracked interior walls, doors and windows out of alignment, and tilted or cracked chimneys. If foundation damage goes unrepaired, it will become more difficult and costly to repair in the future.
