What to do if you have cracks in your foundation 😲 ?
It’s something no home is immune to; extremely common and almost unavoidable, there are many factors that can cause cracks in your foundation.
Tree roots, freezing and thawing, ground settlement, excess water, even plumbing issues can cause cracks over time! Whatever the cause, thankfully there is a solution.
There are many companies that specialize with foundation cracks and repairs. They first assess the severity, excavate the earth around the foundation as needed, then inject the crack with an epoxy filler which expands and creates a seal.
Of course there can be more serious cracks that cause displacement and structural issues, heavy water infiltrations, so it’s important to assess cracks early on before the wreak havoc on your home!
