Numerous common foundation problems can develop over time in homes and commercial buildings. Most are not a result of any construction deficiencies (though they can certainly contribute to problems). Instead, processes like soil erosion, settling, seismic activity, and even water damage can lead to foundation problems. When a home or business owner sees cracks in the foundation or walls, bowing or warping of wall surfaces, sinking floors over crawl spaces, or anything else out of the ordinary with a foundation and the supports, it’s time to call on foundation repair services and foundation testing services. These experts can help to diagnose the extent of the foundation problem, its cause, and offer solutions to fix the problem.
