From the first call or click at the Cantsink Atlanta website, our friendly experts will answer your questions about your home’s foundation and schedule a site visit for a thorough analysis during your foundation inspection to determine your foundation stability.
Homeowners who detect cracks in foundation cement, water seeping into basement areas or sagging floors and uneven door frames need answers a foundation inspection can provide about whether reinforcement is needed to prevent further damage.
Foundation cracks wide enough to allow water to seep through are a clear sign of pending distress. Water intrusion not only erodes existing cracks, but can make unseen weaknesses worse, further undermining a home’s foundation.
Other signs that a concrete foundation is unstable include eroded ground under the foundation or visible gaps between the foundation and the ground. Depressions or sinkholes under the home and discernable differences in ground height between one side of the home and another also signal foundation weakness.
If you are unsure whether your concrete foundation is showing signs that indicate a serious issue, some basic guidance about foundation integrity can be found in local building codes.
