How do I know if I have a foundation problem?

You can usually tell by large drywall cracks, slopes in the floor and doors and windows out of alignment. If you see these warning signs, call now for an expert evaluation by a certified foundation repair specialist.

How much does it cost to fix a foundation?

The cost of the foundation repair varies widely depending on the foundation damage. Most small repairs, where just one corner of the house is affected, are between $5,000 and $8,000. More complex repair will be over $ 20,000-$40,000 or more on average. Costs can vary greatly depending on each individual situation. Remember though, 100% financing is available.

Can I postpone foundation repairs after I know what the problem is?

Yes, you can in most cases. In general, the sooner the repairs are completed, the cheaper and better results you will have. Sometimes, conditions can worsen causing damage in greater proportion to time that has elapsed. It is generally understood that by the time you notice a foundation issue that requires repair, you can expect to spend $2.00-$5.00 for every dollar you spend on the foundation repair, above or on other repairs caused by foundation damage. At some point the damage could cause instability in the roof trusses. Doors and windows could eventually become inoperable and the home can be condemned by the City.
