Asheville homeowners have relied on the '58 Foundations & Waterproofing team for foundation repairs since 1958. From basement wall cracks, to settling and sinking foundations, we're here to restore your home’s safety and value with lifetime-lasting results.
In Asheville, where steep terrain and clay-heavy soils create constant challenges for homes, foundation problems are all too common. Many homes here—especially older properties—were built before modern grading and drainage techniques were in place. Today, shifting soils, seasonal rain cycles, and aging construction can all lead to foundation issues that threaten your home’s structure and value. At ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing, we provide long-lasting foundation repair solutions designed for Asheville’s unique conditions. Backed by our Life-of-the-Structure Warranty and more than 65 years of experience, we help homeowners across the region protect what matters most.
Asheville’s natural terrain and soil composition create difficult conditions for foundations. Expansive clay soils around the home absorb moisture during wet seasons and contract during dry spells—causing soil movement that stresses foundation walls and footings. Homes built on hillsides or sloped lots face added risk from erosion and lateral soil pressure. Older homes in neighborhoods like Montford and Grove Park often have foundations that were never designed to handle modern water loads or drainage challenges. Left unaddressed, these factors can lead to cracking, settlement, bowing walls, and long-term structural damage.
Foundation problems often begin subtly but worsen over time. Many Asheville homeowners first notice small cracks in drywall, brick, or foundation walls—early warnings of shifting or settling. Doors and windows may begin to stick, crack the drywall. or show gaps as frames shift out of alignment. Floors may start to slope or feel uneven underfoot. In basements, bowing walls or inward bulges signal dangerous soil pressure. Outside the home, tilting chimneys, leaning porches, or visible gaps between walls and trim are further signs that the foundation may be compromised. If you’ve observed any of these symptoms, it’s important to schedule a professional inspection before the damage progresses.
Wall cracks stemming from the corner of a window indicate that there is foundation settlement occurring.
At ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing, we take a customized approach to every foundation repair project. After a full inspection, our team will recommend the right combination of solutions to address your home’s specific issues and restore structural stability.
Every repair is performed by our trained in-house team—not subcontractors—and backed by our Life-of-the-Structure Warranty for lasting peace of mind.
