Residential Common Problems & Warning Signs
Foundation Settlement
One of the primary causes of damage to your home’s foundation comes from the ground that is supposed to support it. Poor soils and improper compaction can settle over time, leading to portions of your home sinking slowly. This settlement usually involves issues like cracked drywall, sticking doors and windows, step cracking in exterior brick, unlevel floors, and even water damage.
Wet Basement
Water trickling down your basement walls and seeping through your basement floors is the primary sign that your home needs additional help keeping water away from your foundation. Internal drain systems, sump pumps, and external Waterproofing are all methods used to combat water intrusion.
Bowing Basement Walls
Expansive soils and excessive water on your basement’s exterior walls can cause much damage. Often the first signs a homeowner will notice are small cracks in the basement foundation walls. Over time, that pressure exerted, season over season, will push your basement walls to the point of needing repair and reinforcement.
Settling & Uneven Floors
The floor joists and structural beams in your crawl space often need to be reinforced and even lifted back into place due to ground settlement, water damage, and seasonal changes over time. Some warning signs a homeowner can expect to see are uneven floors in the center of the home, both bowing up and dipping down.
