Causes of Foundation Failure

problemsThere are many factors that cause foundation failure but when trying to determine if your home is experiencing the problem, here are some simple things to look for:

  • Cracked / Sinking Foundation
  • Sticking Doors & Windows
  • Bowing & Cracked Walls
  • Gaps in windows or door frames
  • Doors or windows out of level
  • Splitting drywall in corners, walls or ceilings
  • Cracking concrete floors
  • Uneven or sloping floors/driveways
  • Leaning, tilting or separation gaps in the chimney
  • Noise of movement, usually heard at night when there is little additional sound in the house

These are not all the symptoms of failure but they are the most noticeable. Once you believe that you have an issue, you should contact our company to inspect your home. This will give you a professional opinion of what your options of repair are. Sometimes it is as simple as installing drainage in the soil or installing rain gutters on your home.  Let All American Traditions help YOU determine what you need.

“Our specialty is Foundation Repair”

Foundation failure, movement, hillside repair and settlement is what All American Traditions specializes in. Something that not everyone suffers from but when one does, the most immediate and educational support is needed.

All American Traditions is here with the solution and help you need. We will have repair and options that work; ones that will eliminate the problem and your worry. We will provide you a permanent solution that you can count on to repair your foundation your home and investment.

Foundation repair can sometimes be costly depending on the approach taken.

All American Traditions gives you options based on the needs of your home overall conditions as well as a specific repair plan for the site your home sits on.

The affected area is usually the only area that needs repair, not the entire perimeter or the entire home. Though it is possible that multiple areas of your home foundation is failing, it is rare. Don’t let other contractors fool you and tell you something that is not true (we see this all the time). Get multiple bids and talk to each company.

We bid the projects and install our system. This gives us the upper hand to know what your options are. We are not just the company that sells and gives our best guess. You need an experienced inspector to keep costs down and just propose what the issue is and not more.

We will use a manometer to take an elevation reading of your foundation and floor, complete an inspection, find out exactly what your concerns are and give you a written proposal of options to help put you and your home back on solid ground.

It is our goal to make any issue that you have with regard to foundation repair as painless and as easy to deal with as possible. Request Your Free Foundation Report Today!
