Signs Of Foundation Problems
What Homeowners Notice Before A Foundation Repair.
Foundation problems present in two ways: water finding its way through the wall, and the structure itself moving. Often both are happening, because water is what erodes the soil and deteriorates the concrete in the first place.
The inspection determines which is which — and whether the correct response is a crack repair, an exterior wall repair, structural reinforcement or underpinning.
Types Of Foundation Damage
- Vertical & diagonal cracks
- Horizontal cracks
- Bowing or leaning walls
- Spalling concrete
- Deteriorated mortar joints
- Settlement & movement
- Water entry through cracks
- Failed previous repairs

Foundation Crack Repair
Seal The Crack, Then Remove The Pressure.
A repaired crack that still has water pressing against it from outside is only half a repair. We seal the crack and then deal with what put water there — drainage, grading or a deteriorated wall surface.

Underpinning
When A Foundation Needs More Than Repair.
Where a foundation is settling, has inadequate footings, or a homeowner wants usable basement height, the correct solution is underpinning rather than surface repair.
Underpinning extends the existing foundation downward in controlled sections so the structure stays supported throughout the work.

Common Questions
Foundation Repair FAQs
Still unsure what applies to your home? Call us and describe what you're seeing.
No. Many cracks in poured concrete are shrinkage cracks that appear in the first years after construction and are primarily a water problem rather than a structural one. Cracks that are widening, stepped, horizontal, or accompanied by sticking doors and sloping floors are treated differently. The assessment matters more than the crack itself.
Not Sure How Serious That Crack Is?
Have it looked at before water, weather and another winter make the repair larger than it needs to be.
