Foundation Repair FAQ

Are foundation repairs worth it?

When it comes to foundation repairs, it can be tempting to ignore the problem and hope it goes away. But, that’s not the way to go because foundation issues can seriously impact the safety and value of your home. If you ignore a foundation problem, it could lead to severe structural damage over time. That means the damage might make your house unsafe or lose value. And if you ever want to sell your house, you can be sure that any potential buyers will have the home inspected to see if there are any problems.

Can the foundation of a house be fixed?

Yes, it’s possible to fix the foundation of a house. Foundation repairs are common and can be done for a variety of reasons. The exact process for fixing a foundation will depend on what’s causing the issue in the first place. For example, if the foundation is settling, it may need to be lifted and supported with piers. On the other hand, if there are cracks in the foundation, those can often be repaired using carbon fiber straps and epoxy injections.

Is foundation repair covered by homeowner's insurance?

Most standard homeowner’s insurance policies don’t cover foundation repairs unless the damage is due to a covered peril like fire, flooding, or an earthquake. If your foundation issues are caused by neglect or lack of maintenance, insurance probably won’t cover it. So, it’s always a good idea to take care of your home and regularly inspect for any potential foundation issues.

What is the best price for foundation repair?

The cost of foundation repair will depend on various factors, such as the severity of the damage, the type of foundation, the materials used for the repair, and your geographical location. While you might be tempted to choose the cheapest option, it’s worth investing in quality repairs to make sure your home’s long-term stability. A shoddy repair job could cost you more in the long run if it leads to more damage. When looking for a contractor, ask for references and check their credentials. You want to make sure they have experience, and a track record of quality work.

What type of foundation repair is best?

When it comes to foundation repair, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. The best repair method depends on the specific type and extent of damage that your foundation has sustained.

Are cracks normal after foundation repair?

Some minor cracks are normal after underpinning. When a foundation is lifted via underpinning, this can put a bit of stress on the structure, causing minor cracking. However, if you see anything you feel is suspicious, contact the contractor who did the repair and ask for an inspection.

What is considered a bad foundation crack?

Generally, horizontal and diagonal cracks are worse than vertical cracks. Also, be on the lookout for stair step cracks in brick or masonry, cracks that are getting bigger, and cracks accompanied by bowing. Use common sense. If the foundation crack looks bad, it probably is.

Can I fix a foundation crack myself?

We understand the desire to save money by fixing a foundation crack yourself but don’t do it. Foundation cracks should only be handled by a professional foundation repair contractor. Here’s why:

First, foundation cracks can be caused by soil settlement, water damage, or poor construction. This means that the cause of the crack needs to be correctly identified and addressed. A professional foundation repair contractor has the tools, knowledge, and experience to accurately diagnose the problem and determine the best course of action.

Additionally, fixing a foundation crack yourself, can make the problem worse. You might not use suitable materials or techniques, which could further damage the foundation.

Can a house collapse from foundation issues?

Absent catastrophic events like earthquakes, your home is unlikely to collapse, even if it has a foundation issue. That doesn’t mean a foundation issue should go unrepaired.

What's worse: vertical or horizontal cracks?

When it comes to foundation cracks, both vertical and horizontal cracks can be a cause for concern. However, horizontal foundation cracks are usually a more serious problem than vertical ones.

Is it better to fix a foundation crack from the inside or outside?

The best way to fix a foundation crack depends on the specific situation and severity. Without an inspection, it’s impossible to say if it’s better to fix the crack on the inside or the outside.

When should I be worried about my house's foundation?

It’s always good to watch for any signs of trouble. Here are a few things to look out for: windows and doors that don’t open and close properly, uneven floors, wall, ceiling, and floor cracks, and stair-step cracks in brick or masonry. For more information, see Common Foundation Issues.
