Foundation Repair in Portsmouth, OH

Review Logo 4.2 (168)

Portsmouth homeowners must be vigilant about their foundation, especially given the area's diverse soil types, including clay and silt, which respond differently to the average annual precipitation of around 40 inches of rain and 17 inches of snow. Changes in moisture levels can lead to soil expansion and contraction, causing foundations to settle, crack, and bow. Ohio Basement Authority offers reliable foundation repair solutions, such as pier systems and wall anchors, designed to stabilize and restore your foundation's integrity.

"Ohio Basement Authority (OBA) installed my inside French drain and I couldn’t be more pleased. The install went quick and smooth. OBA does yearly checks of the system. A pleasant young man named Kyle was the tech today and besides being thorough he was very informative and efficient. All my interactions with employees of OBA was been pleasant and would recommend their services."

Types of Foundation Damage in Portsmouth

Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in Portsmouth

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.
