Foundation Repair

Foundation cracks can occur for different reasons. For some homes, it is because of uneven foundation settlement and parts of the foundation become stressed to the point of cracking. For other homes, it can be because of hydrostatic pressure as outside groundwater presses against the foundation, especially during rain storms. One case of hydrostatic pressure being responsible is when a homeowner is having bowing basement walls. ‘58 Foundations & Waterproofing has over 65 years of experience behind our foundation repair solutions. Whatever the reason for your foundation cracks, you can be sure that we’ll have a comprehensive solution to repair your foundation cracks while also addressing the source of the problems.

When there are foundation cracks leaking with water, it is important to address the problem as soon as possible to prevent further water damage and moisture-related problems.

Foundation problems don’t fix themselves. In fact, waiting to get a foundation problem fixed will only let it get worse. That means more damage to your foundation and more repair costs. Foundation problems can even lead to other problems for your home, such as water leaking into your basement, leaning chimneys, and the jamming of your doors and windows.

Due to the uniqueness of each foundation repair situation, the cost of the foundation repair job will depend on a number of factors. Our ‘58 foundation repair experts will need to assess and determine the scope of the work needed to properly fix your foundation. This can include what products and materials will be needed, such as our ‘58 Strong Helical Piers and our ‘58 Strong Steel I-beams. Your foundation repair can include your foundation sinking due to settlement as well as your walls either cracking or beginning to bow. We must also assess the land surrounding your foundation. Once our inspection is complete, you will receive a free, no-obligation foundation cost estimate.

For foundation repair, the length of time it will take will depend on a variety of factors, such as the size of your building or home, the soil situation around and under your foundation, and the scale of work to be done. On average, you can expect your foundation repair to take around 2-5 days.
