Recognizing Foundation Issues
Foundation problems can jeopardize the entire structure. Common warning signs include diagonal cracks in walls, doors that won't close, and sloping floors. These are often caused by soil settlement, poor compaction, or tree roots.
Modern Repair & Strengthening Methods
- Foundation Jacketing: Encasing existing weak concrete footings in a thick cage of steel reinforcement and pouring high-grade concrete.
- Underpinning: Extending the depth of the foundation to a deeper, more stable soil layer using micro-piles or steel piers.
- Structural Leveling: Using manual screw jacks to lift the settled portions of the building back to their original level and injecting concrete grout underneath.
