Sinking foundations, cracked and buckled walls and uneven floors are problems commonly faced annually by some quarter-million homeowners. Homes and other structures situated on unstable soils settle when their foundations are subjected to extreme moisture conditions or lack proper drainage. A shifting foundation may result in structural damage to your home and a loss of your investment.

Waterproofing

The number one cause of water damage in the basement of a home is from poor water management around the exterior foundation. So…

Be sure that the dirt is graded properly away from your foundation – so the rainwater can travel away from the wall without impediment.
Check that your gutter and downspouts are in good condition and slope properly so that water flows.
Get the downspout water as far away as possible from the home – use black piping available at any store. Buried is the best, but make sure the water exits at least 6 feet from the foundation.
Don’t forget to trim those bushes back or rip them out altogether – don’t let things grow against your house. The air needs to get at your foundation.

Follow these simple steps and you’ll have little trouble with water in your foundation under normal circumstances.

Foundation repair issues are usually due to bad drainage, ground movement, subsidence or poor construction, which causes your foundation to shift or settle. Your foundation repair problem will usually be noticed by doors or windows that no longer open and close, or drywall cracks. Incomplete or failed waterproofing around and under basement walls and floors is a significant cause of sinking foundation problems.

When a foundation settles, sections of the structure will shift unevenly, causing cracks to form. Over time, the broken sections of the foundation will begin to drift, or “rotate”, causing the cracks to widen and become uneven.

A foundation that shows significant settlement damage may have tilting chimneys, jamming doors, windows that do not open or close, and leaking through the openings. Pests may also find their way through the cracks, leading to infestations in the home.
