Foundation Wall Repair is almost always an involved process that often requires stabilizing a structure that has already been built but has encountered damaged from issues like soil erosion, water damage, foundation settlement, or even direct impact. Foundation Wall damage can manifest itself in several ways, like stair step cracks, horizontal cracks, leaning or bowing of walls, or a variety of other signs that you need foundation wall repair. More so than just fixing the temporary symptoms of the wall damage, you need a professional to assess your situation, and ensure that you don’t have deeper seeded problems, like damage to the foundation of your home.
If you have issues with the foundation walls of your East Alabama home, you may be able to get away with an epoxy-style repair to the cracks in your wall, if there isn’t underlying foundation damage. If you have deeper problems, you might notice that adjacent floors are beginning to become slanted, sloped, or sagging. You could notice that doors and windows are becoming hard to open. If these things are happening, or you think your foundation wall repair needs are just the beginning, you need an experienced professional to address your situation.
Quite often, foundation wall repair needs are caused by some sort of water event below the surface, or an above the surface event that has resulted in direct drainage to foundational areas, and has resulted in damaged foundational elements. Whether it’s sudden damage from busted pipes or flood waters, or long-term damage from poor water drainage that has caused foundational inconsistencies in your home, FoundationRX can tell you if your damage has resulted in the need for foundation wall repair, or if you have even bigger foundation repair needs.
