Foundation Repair in Lexington, NC

Review Logo 4.8 (1,370)

The foundation of your Lexington home is under constant stress from the area's 45 inches of annual rainfall and the presence of clay and sandy loam soils. These conditions can lead to soil saturation, creating hydrostatic pressure that causes foundation walls to crack and bow. Additionally, dry conditions can cause soil shrinkage, resulting in gaps that allow for foundation settling. If you notice signs of foundation trouble, such as sticking doors, nail pops, or uneven floors, it’s crucial to act quickly. Tar Heel Basement Systems provides permanent, warrantied solutions including wall anchors and pier systems to restore the stability of your foundation.

Types of Foundation Damage in Lexington

Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in Lexington

Soil Settlement

Shifting or sinking soil under your foundation causes uneven settling, which can lead to cracks and structural issues.

Moisture Changes

Seasonal soil changes, like expansion during wet periods and shrinking during dry spells, put stress on your foundation, leading to cracks and instability.

Tree Roots

Nearby growing tree roots can shift the soil beneath your foundation, causing cracks and uneven support.

Hydrostatic Pressure

Saturated soil creates hydrostatic pressure, pushing against foundation walls and causing cracks or bowing over time.

Plumbing Leaks

Plumbing leaks near your foundation can saturate the soil, weakening its stability and leading to foundation movement or cracks.

Temperature Changes

Freeze-thaw cycles cause the soil around your home to expand and contract, which can cause for your foundation to shift and cause damage.

Climate Conditions

Heavy rains or drought can cause soil to shift, leading to cracks and instability in your foundation. Foundation repair restores stability, protecting your home from further damage and ensuring long-term safety.
