Secure Your Home’s Stability with foundation settling repair
Unstable soil is often a geographic trend in certain areas, particularly near rivers or lakes. In our 50 years of providing concrete raising services, foundation settling repair, and waterproofing, we have identified soil-related issues as the primary cause of most foundation repairs.
Changes in soil moisture content with the seasons can cause heavily concentrated clay soil to shrink, reducing the overall support under existing structure footings. Additionally, poor soil compaction, the presence of organic materials, and overloading can contribute to the failure of structural footings. Our extensive experience and expertise in foundation settling repair allow us to address these challenges effectively, ensuring the stability and longevity of your structures.
