Foundation Repair in Oak Park, MI

Review Logo 4.7 (2,291)

The clay-rich soil in Oak Park, combined with the area's average annual precipitation of about 34 inches, can create challenging conditions for foundations. This moisture causes the clay to expand and contract, leading to pressure on your foundation walls. Homeowners should be alert for signs like bowing walls, cracks in the foundation, and issues such as sagging floors or sticking doors and windows. Foundation Systems of Michigan has over 15 years of experience in repairing foundations and uses reliable American-made solutions like wall anchors and piers to secure your home.

"Jason R and Jordan B. did a great job today. They were very thorough and offered to extend my warranty for five years from today since I had problems with their quality of work originally. I did not expect that, but that really made a difference plus them getting the job done correctly today. These guys were excellent and did an amazing job with lifting & leveling, a professional looking saw-cut to prep and then filll the cracks."

Types of Foundation Damage in Oak Park

Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in Oak Park

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.
