Structural Foundation Damage and Foundation Repair

January 5, 2016

Homeowners often discover structural foundation damage has occurred. This is extremely common in the Dallas, Fort Worth and Arlington areas for a number of reasons. Most foundation repair in Texas is done using two standard methods to restore houses and commercial buildings in cities all throughout the metroplex. Because severe deterioration can prove costly to fix, it’s best to have your foundation evaluated soon as you see signs that something might be wrong.

Structural foundation damage is an issue that requires repairs.

Which Two Methods Of Foundation Repair Stop Structural Foundation Damage:

Most professionals that serve customers in and around Dallas, Fort Worth and Arlington use pressed concrete foundation piers and steel piers to halt destruction. These two types of pilings are very popular in Texas and widely used to halt harmful conditions. The reasons contractors use these foundation repair methods is to make a structure level again. This stops foundation damage from occurring. Regardless of which types of piers are used, when they’re installed in the metroplex, piers are generally pushed to a depth of approximately 8-15.’ The soil is deeper is some local cities than it is in others. In those cases, piers must be installed further beneath the earth in order to stop foundation damage in Texas structures including houses, apartments and commercial buildings.

Deterioration often occurs in periods of drought or heavy rain. Up until the end of 2015, Texas went through a long period of extremely hot conditions. Temperatures of 100-104 degrees extended for weeks, and in some cases over 28 days. What’s more, El Nino was responsible for torrential downpours in the state. These volatile weather conditions lead to a great deal of structural foundation damage. They affect concrete slabs as well as pier and beam foundations. If you see cracks or notice your home is tilting, contact a foundation repair contractor.

How Settlement Harms Foundations:

One way it hurts these structures is by making one part of a foundation lower than the rest of it. Sinking and sloping eventually leads to cracking in walls, brick and ceiling. This can cause a great deal of destruction all throughout a house. Foundation repair contractors know how to deal with these sorts of problems. They can make recommendations and let you know if, in fact, your structure has been damaged. If you see evidence of foundation settlement, you need to end it. It is entirely possible that you may require house leveling services.

A large number of companies in the DFW area offer no-cost estimates for performing foundation repair service. To have your house or other structure evaluated for damage, contact professionals. If setting in your foundation is a concern, let us know. We can put a stop to foundation issues and help you preserve your property.
