Foundation problems
Many houses in this area are built on foundations that are not suitable for the soil conditions. Homes are built on poor land because it lacks the necessary bearing capacity to support their heavy weight.
Additionally, clay soils in our region tend to expand and contract, adding further stress to your home. Moisture in soil can fluctuate due to poor drainage, vegetation (roots), plumbing leaks, evaporation and wet/dry rainfall cycles.
Foundations that are slab-on-grade rely on the soil’s topmost layers for sufficient bearing capacity to support the foundation and to keep it stable. The foundation will settle if the soil bearing soil is not compacted enough before construction. Foundation cracks can be caused by all of these factors. Ace House Leveling’s foundation repair specialists are here to help.
