Have You Noticed These Common Problems?

Signs you may have have foundation Problems

With a unique climate of extreme temperatures and moisture, midwest and southern structures are susceptible to a number of different foundation issues. If these issues go unaddressed, homeowners and building owners can be faced with serious damage, costly repairs, and safety concerns. Typically, the most common foundation issue we see in Mississippi, Tennessee, and Arkansas are cracks in foundation walls, bricks, chimneys, and/or drywall. Some more subtle signs of foundation damage may be floor cracks, floor gaps, foundation settlement, nail pops, and sinking foundations. Some issues, such as sticking doors and windows or uneven floors, are less concerning than the more serious issues like basement wall cracks, bowing basement walls, collapsing retaining walls, and wall shearing.

Each common foundation problem has their specific solution that can only be done by a highly trained professional. To ensure the stability of your structure and the safety of its inhabitants, do not hesitate to call C&B Foundations straight away.

Floor Gaps
