The Appearance of Wall Cracks

Foundation complications usually manifest in the form of cracked walls and floors. This is usually due to weak or moist soil or, in some cases, the difficulty is due to complications during the construction of your foundation. Cracks can be quickly repaired with new concrete, replacement foundation blocks or even waterproof, injectable expoxy material. You can avoid this difficulty with an assessment of your foundation.

Uneven Floor Problems

Direct damage to the foundation walls caused by excess water generally leads to bulges or cracks in foundation footings and your home’s foundation walls.

There might also be major structural complications due to cases of excessive moisture damage.
