Foundation Repair in Newport, TN

Review Logo 4.9 (785)

Newport's humid summers and heavy rains create a challenging environment for home foundations. While the soil generally drains well, prolonged rainfall can saturate the ground, leading to erosion and instability. This instability can result in foundation settlement, especially in areas where clay content is high. When wet, this clay expands, exerting pressure on your foundation and potentially causing cracks and bowing walls. Timely foundation repair is crucial, and we offer various solutions such as wall anchor systems and pier systems to stabilize and lift your foundation back to its original position.

We sat down for an Informational Overview and then proceeded to the Crawl space for an indept Inspection. We discussed options to correct the problem after the Inspection and decided on one of the available solutions to fix our problem.

Types of Foundation Damage in Newport

Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in Newport

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.
