Foundation Settlement
Foundation settlement is when the ground underneath compress and the foundation of the home sink into the empty gaps. Signs of this problem include cracks along your foundation, stair cracks on your chimney, or uneven floors in the home where the wall is raised above the flooring.
Often times, poor soil compaction can cause problems for your home and make it sink into the earth. This "bad" soil can create empty gaps below your home that it will eventually sink into. To fix this problem, we make use of SafeBasements™ helical and push pier systems. Their set up time is fast and they work well at fixing sinking properties.
Bowed Walls
Bowed walls are a common problem for homes that recieve an abnormal amount of water in the yard. This is a common problem that is caused from hydrostatic pressure in the soil surrounding your home. Clay-rich soil will absorb a lot of moisture when it rains, and this causes it to expand and put pressure on your basement walls.
It will eventually push them inside, but this problem can be fixed easily. To fix the problem, we install wall anchors to provide enough lateral pressure to move your wall back to where it needs to be.
Wall and Floor Cracks
Wall and floor cracks in you foundation. Nobody wants to deal with cracks in the basement, but you have to get them taken care of before they start to let water seep inside. Typically, these openings in the floors and walls are caused from concrete shrinkage, or from hydrostatic pressure being exerted from the soil on your foundation.
To fix the problem, we make use of a urethane injection technique that will fill the cracks from the soil to the surface so that they won't ever be able to let water inside.
