"As a structural engineer myself, though my work is in a different sector of construction, I can confidently say that working with Joe Daleo from groundworks was an absolute pleasure. While I don't specialize in residential construction, I knew I needed an expert to thoroughly assess the structural integrity of the foundations of a single family residence. Joe exceeded all expectations.
He is extremely knowledgeable in his field and was able to provide valuable insights that I would not have considered. His attention to detail was excellent, and he took the time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand. Communication was seamless throughout the process—he was always available to answer questions and discuss any concerns I had.
Beyond his technical expertise, what stood out the most was his professionalism and friendly attitude. I highly valued his input and felt confident in the thoroughness of his inspection. If you’re looking for a structural inspector who is reliable, skilled, and dedicated to doing a thorough job, I wholeheartedly recommend Joe Daleo from groundworks."
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.
