Indicators of foundation movement

 


The following is a list of items to look for which could be evidence of foundation movement. If you are experiencing two or more of these items, you might want to consider contacting us to schedule an inspection by one of our home foundation repair Structural and Drainage Experts.

* Cracks in mortar or brick
* Separation in brick frieze boards on outside of home--particularly at corners
* Brick or trim separations from sides, top or bottom of windows and doors on outside of home
* Cracks in interior drywall--either in ceiling or walls
* Sloping floors in home
* Doors that won't open or close properly
* Doors that won't latch
* Windows that won't close properly or latch
* Separation, tearing or buckling of wallpaper or paneling
* Separation or unlevel trim at ceilings
* Separation of base trim from the floor
* Wrinkles in linoleum

In addition to these obvious indicators, poor drainage and/or improper maintenance could be leading to foundation movement.

Because the clay soil in this part of Texas is expansive, regular routine maintenance is very important.
