Signs your foundation may need repair
Think your foundation is failing? Pay attention to the signs below. While they might not be clear indicators of damage, it’s a good starting point to determine if a professional is needed to inspect the foundation:
- Chipping or cracking concrete
- Leaning basement walls
- Gaps at the bottoms and tops of walls
- Damaged or cracked drywall
- Windows and doors that jam
- Bouncy flooring
- Uneven or sagging floors
- Popped out nails
- Plumbing leaks
- Basement leaks
- Tipping chimney
- Gapping around chimney
- Misaligned doors and windows
- Misplaced moldings
- Windows out of square
Most foundation issues are caused by soil pressure. Soil contracts and expands due to moisture exposure, dryness and changes in weather. Some soil is naturally poor while improper grading of land may lead to problems and pressure that basement walls cannot withstand.
