Interior Symptoms:

Uneven or sloping floor

As a foundation settles, so do the floor joists and the finished flooring above.

Cracks in floor

When concrete slabs often settle unevenly, large cracks are likely to form.

Cracks in interior wall

Interior wall cracks typically appear where walls are weakest: near doors and windows.

Inward bowing walls

Water-saturated soil can sometimes exert enough pressure to cause foundation walls to bow, bulge or tilt.

Hard to open windows & door

When a floor sinks, openings become out of square, causing windows and doors to jam.


Exterior Symptoms:

A tilting chimney can be stabilized and returned to its original position without demolition.
