Heavy rainfall or melting snow can cause basement flooding which result in weakness in the ground beneath your foundation. Foundation sinking, bowing basement walls, and other structural damage can occur as the supporting ground softens. In the process, your’re left with an ideal environment for the growth of mold and mildew.
Humidity in the soil and air releases destructive water vapor, debris, contaminates, and pollen. This damp air carries mold spores and musty odors, providing the perfect environment for insects and other pests, as well as wood rot. These issues affect your home’s structure and the quality of air in your living spaces.
All soil can expand and contract after a heavy rain or drought. When the soil supporting your foundation changes, it can cause your home to shift. During wet weather, water saturates surrounding soil, causing it to swell and push against subterranean walls. This lateral pressure can make basement walls bulge or leak, causing a wet and smelly basement.
Completed a foundational support installation to enhance the structural integrity of a property. The process involved using a hydraulic jack to stabilize the foundation, addressing potential settling issues. This essential measure helps in ensuring long-term stability and safety, a vital enhancement for the property.
We tackled Amanda's sagging basement floor by reinforcing the existing support structure. The floor had previously separated from both walls, but with precise adjustments and improvements, stability has been restored. This repair, roughly estimated at $13,500, ensures the safety and integrity of the space.
For Lynda's home in zip code 61611, we addressed foundation repairs by leveling the basement and implementing a comprehensive waterproofing system. Significant work was done to correct slanting issues and fix cracks, ensuring stability and preventing future water problems. The addition to the back of the house was inspected, requiring careful attention to the crawlspace over 18 inches. This essential repair was completed for approximately $13,250.
Addressed the separation issue in the addition of Henriette’s home, which is supported by cinder blocks. The team focused on securing the foundation to ensure the flooring remains aligned with the main structure. This intervention was necessary due to limited access under the addition, executed with an estimated budget of around $23,500.
We recently undertook a project to stabilize and waterproof a crawl space in zip code 61611 for Patrick. The job involved addressing water intrusion issues through crack repairs and sump pump installation. Approximately priced at $11,000, the work ensures a dry and secure environment, protecting the foundation from future water damage.
