Foundation Repair in Charlottesville, VA

Review Logo 4.6 (1,401)

The clay soils in Charlottesville, combined with the significant rainfall averaging 40 inches per year, can lead to serious foundation issues. As the ground absorbs moisture, it expands and pushes against your foundation, which can later cause it to settle unevenly when the soil dries. This cycle of expansion and contraction can create structural problems in your home, such as cracks in walls, misaligned doors and windows, and gaps in the floors. JES uses advanced foundation repair techniques, including pier systems and wall anchors, to provide the necessary support and protection for your foundation.

JES Foundation Repair (JES), a Groundworks Company, specializes in helping homeowners with their foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, and concrete needs. Our top priority is providing high-quality home repair solutions and personalized service across Virginia and Maryland. With fully trained technicians, industry-leading products, and nationally backed warranties, JES is here to restore your foundation or crawl space.

Types of Foundation Damage in Charlottesville

Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in Charlottesville

Water Damage

Excess water from leaks, heavy rains, or floods can weaken the foundation by accumulating around it, leading to cracks and structural issues.

Expansive Soil

Certain types of soil, particularly those rich in clay minerals, are prone to expansion when wet and contraction when dry, exerting pressure on your foundation.

Poor Drainage

Improper drainage systems can lead to water pooling around the foundation, increasing the risk of water damage and soil erosion.

Tree Roots

Roots from nearby trees can grow under the foundation, causing it to shift or crack as they expand.

Plumbing Leaks

Leaks from plumbing systems can saturate the soil around the foundation, leading to erosion and weakening of the structure.

Climate Conditions

Extreme weather conditions, such as droughts or heavy rains, can cause soil to expand or contract, putting stress on the foundation.

These common causes highlight the importance of regular maintenance and inspections to prevent foundation damage and ensure the longevity of your home.
