What Causes a Sinking Foundation?
If your sinking foundation has been causing headaches, identifying the root cause can make tackling the issue much simpler. With over 20 years in the Houston Metro area, we've seen many sinking foundation problems. Most of them stem from the following common causes:
- Shifting Soil: Houston's clay-rich soil expands when wet and contracts when dry. This causes foundations to settle and sink over time.
- Water Erosion: Heavy rains and floods often wash away the soil under your foundation. This can make it unstable and prone to sinking.
- Poor Footing Installation: Shallow or poorly installed footings can fail. They won't support your foundation, making it vulnerable to soil movement.
Signs Your Foundation May Be Sinking
It's always wise to schedule a free inspection with Two Brothers Foundation Repair. But, you can spot a few signs of a sinking foundation on your own. Keep an eye out for:
- Stair-step or large vertical cracks in your walls.
- Uneven, slanted, or sloping floors that feel unstable underfoot.
- Sticking doors and windows that are hard to open or close.
- Gaps around windows and doors, creating drafts or letting light through.
- Tilting chimneys or walls that lean noticeably.
- Water pooling near your foundation, which can erode the soil supporting it.
If you’re noticing signs of damage, don’t hesitate to reach out! We’re here to help you get to the bottom of it.
How We Repair Sinking Foundations
At Two Brothers Foundation Repair, we use trusted, effective methods. They are tailored to the unique climate and soil of the Houston Metro area. Our approach includes:
Piering
Piers are deep support structures. They are installed beneath the foundation to lift, stabilize, and anchor your home to a solid layer of soil.
Foundation Jacking
This method uses hydraulic jacks to lift and level a sinking foundation. It often works alongside piering to create a stable base for the long term.
Understanding Foundation Footing Repairs
Foundation footings are usually made of concrete and are crucial for your home's stability. They help distribute the weight of your home evenly across the soil and act as anchors to keep the foundation steady.
Over time, these footings can get damaged. Shifting soil or a settling foundation can lead to cracks. Heavy rain can wash away the soil that supports the footings. Sometimes, the original footings may not be strong enough. This can cause undersized footings to shift or crack under pressure.
When your foundation footings show signs of weakness, you need to act quickly. Addressing these issues early is key to keeping your home safe and sound.
