Your home’s foundation supports everything above it—so when it starts to fail, the signs can show up in more places than you’d expect. Catching these early warning signs can save you from costly structural damage and even potential safety hazards.
Here are some key indicators your home may need foundation attention:
1. Cracks in Walls or Floors
Diagonal cracks in drywall or wide gaps in concrete slabs can point to foundation movement. While small hairline cracks aren’t always a concern, deeper or widening cracks often mean it’s time to consult a foundation crack repair specialist.
2. Uneven or Sloping Floors
If your floors feel slanted or furniture no longer sits level, this could be due to foundation leveling needs caused by soil movement or settling.
3. Doors and Windows That Stick
When doors and windows become difficult to open or close, it may be more than just humidity—it could be a shifting foundation affecting frame alignment.
4. Gaps Around Window Frames or Exterior Walls
Visible separation between windows, ceilings, or exterior walls can suggest foundation movement or pressure from expanding soil.
5. Water Intrusion in the Basement
Water seepage in your basement might result from foundation cracks or poor drainage. Left untreated, it can cause mold growth and structural issues. Explore our basement waterproofing services to keep your home dry and protected.
