Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in Sarasota
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.
