Foundation Issues to Watch out For

If you notice any of the following, it’s best to contact us to assess it for you:

Foundation cracks: If you see vertical, horizontal, or stair-step cracks in your basement that widen over time, this indicates soil shifts or water leaks.

Leaning walls: Over time, hydrostatic pressure on your foundation and around your basement walls will cause them to lean inward.

Sticking doors and windows: Foundation movement can cause jamming.

Moisture damage: Rain and snow soaking into the soil can seep into the foundation and cause basement mold.

Foundation settlement: Soil expansion and contraction can create voids, leading to sinking and an unstable home.

Wall cracks: Thick cracks, especially by joints or above window frames, indicate a settling foundation.
