Are you looking for a Foundation Repair company and don’t know where to start? Let’s take a quick look at the most common warning signs of foundation failure.
Cracks in the Wall
If your home is settling, the most common sign would be cracks in the sheetrock. Specifically, we’re looking for diagonal cracks above door frames or windows.
Sagging Floors
Sometimes you can feel or actually see the floor is not level. If your home has un-level floors, you may need additional support in your crawlspace to correct the problem.
Doors or Windows do not operate correctly
If your doors used to work, but now they won’t close without pushing really hard…chances are your foundation has shifted.
Exterior cracks in brick or block walls
If you see the typical “stair step” cracks on your home’s exterior, it may be sign that your foundation is in trouble.
If you suspect any of these problems at your home, we invite you to call us and set up an evaluation. Depending on the nature of the visit, we may or may not charge an inspection fee.
At American Crawlspace Solutions, we offer a thorough and unbiased assessment of your foundation, and sometimes that takes more work than just a quick walk around the house. Many times, our inspectors will find that there really is no foundation problem present. In this case, the homeowner is encouraged to simply monitor the issue going forward.
We may charge a fee to properly investigate because it just takes time to do something right. Your home is often the biggest investment you make, so isn’t it worth getting the right information into your hands when deciding who to hire to fix your foundation?
