"Before I ever contacted Groundwork’s, I was told by a private contractor that my entire kitchen would need to be torn out to fix the structural damage under the house. However, I called Groundworks, which was the company I had hoped would have a better solution, and they did! For our particular needs, I worked with two separate teams. The first team was from Nashville. Shane was the foreman and the two men who worked with him were Mike and Heli. After we removed some flooring, these guys worked tirelessly to dig out a crawl space, haul the dirt away, remove rotten rem boards, spray mold from wood, jack the house up, and rebuild what was torn out. By the time these guys finished, I could noticeably see and feel a more level floor. Also, I want to add these guys came in the sleet and ice, which made their days longer and harder. Yet, this team stayed positive, respectful, and hard working. The second team was from Southaven. Eugenio was the foreman and the two mean who worked with him were Jamil and Jose.This team was equally professional, hard working, courteous, and punctual. These men replaced some addional rem boards, added additional supports to further firm up the floor, and actually further leveled the existing structure. This team was equally pleasant to have working in your home; they worked very hard but had an equally positive attitude. What is most impressive is the actual work done by Groundwork’s as this is not a job just anyone can do. Both teams were highly trained and experienced. In addition, these guys came to fix the problem. There are no delays, no disappearing, and no half fixes. Despite this company being national, communication was easy and effortless from the initial conversation to the men working. I am so glad that I called Groundwork’s for a project deemed impossible. Groundworks completed the project quickly and thoroughly. It was hassle free for me as Groundwork’s delivered on all of their commitments from communication to execution to finishing and cleaning up. I highly recommend Groundwork’s"

Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in Hernando

Wondering why your home's foundation might be showing signs of distress? In areas like Hernando, various environmental factors contribute to foundation issues. The clayey soils found in many local areas tend to swell and contract significantly with changes in moisture levels. Periods of heavy rain followed by dry spells exacerbate this, causing the soil to expand when wet and shrink when dry. Over time, these movement cycles can lead to shifts in the foundation. In some parts of Hernando, inadequate drainage systems further contribute to water accumulation around the foundation, potentially leading to water damage or increased soil movement.

These environmental factors can manifest in multiple ways around your home. Commonly, homeowners may notice cracks in the walls, uneven floors, or doors that stick. Water pooling around the foundation is another indicator that might be linked to poor drainage. As your home's foundation continues to encounter these stressors, timely identification of such warning signs is crucial. Addressing these issues early can prevent more severe damage, helping to maintain the stability and safety of your property. Being aware of how these regional conditions affect your home ensures you're better equipped to mitigate potential foundation problems.

FAQs

You can pay for foundation repair through various methods such as credit card, check, or financing options provided by the repair company. Some companies also offer payment plans to help manage the costs.

If foundation issues are not addressed, they can lead to more severe structural damage over time. This can result in increased repair costs, decrease in property value, and potential safety hazards.

In Hernando, the foundation can be impacted by seasonal changes such as heavy rains and clay soil expansion, which can lead to soil movement and foundation shifting. Dry periods can cause soil contraction, also affecting stability.

Your main point of contact during the foundation repair project is typically the project manager assigned by the repair company. They will oversee the work and communicate updates to you.

Helical piers are screwed into the ground and are ideal for lighter structures or where soil conditions prevent the use of push piers. Push piers, on the other hand, are driven into the ground using the weight of the structure and are typically used in heavier buildings.
