Not Sure Your House Has a Problem?

In some instances, the homeowner can tell they are experiencing a structure crisis.

And in some instances, the symptoms are apparent and evident.

In other instances, the indicators are harder to detect.

And these concerns can show up at any kind or design of building construction.

Example of a older house with a list of items

Likely Problem Clues:

• Water collects near your house after a rain
• Windows or doors stick to their frames when you open or shut them
• There’s water in your basement
• Gaps between doors and their frames, especially exterior doors and garage doors
• Irregular or sloped interior floors
• Splits in exterior or interior brick walls or their mortar
• Up and down cracks in drywall, primarily between a door frame and the ceiling
• Cracking in solid surface exterior or interior walls
• Cracked or separated wood molding, sometimes crown or door moldings
• Major cracks in a cement floor or foundation
• Damp, humid or musty-smelling basement
• Wood floors are saggy, spongy or sloping, or tile floor sections are loose
• Gaps between a wall and ceiling or wall and floor
• Separations between exterior walls or wall and chimney

Can These Issues Be Corrected?

Sure, often these issues look like they will be hard to take care of.

A San Diego County homeowner may believe their house issue is nearly impossible to fix, or cost a lot of money to get done.

But many issues can be resolved at a reasonable cost.

With that in mind, handling a home structure predicament requires a professional contractor and work crew, along with the right equipment and tools to elevate and fix a house that is no longer straight and level.

Waterproofing Crawl Spaces

If your basement or the area under your home is wet, an examination will attempt to discover what is causing water to leak into it.

They might develop a waterproofing treatment that can take care of your moisture problem without having to work under your house at all. Maybe they could correct the issue through working outside your house on the gutter system, landscaping and lawn around your house.

Mira Mesa Slab Jacking Services

When a part of your concrete walkway, terrace or driveway has sunk below where it was previously, they will handle that too.

They use a operation called mud jacking (also called slab jacking).

Slab jacking is the operation in which they forcefully force a thick liquid solution under the bad sunken cement slab.

This thick material gathers below the slab and gradually presses the slab upwards to its desired height.

Pretty slick.

Sometimes a property owner wants mudjacking performed primarily as a way to improve the appearance of their property, but cement slab lifting can aid in eliminating accidental trips which result from walking on uneven pavement segments.

Practically all projects are finished in one morning or afternoon.

How Come These Problems Happen?

Well, around and under your home, the soil can shift a little occasionally.

Wetness, high or low temperatures and a few similar slight variables could cause the soil to shrink or stretch.

Don't allow your property to become like thisThis motion, even though it can be minor, can affect whatever is on top of it, from a house to a patio or other solid surface.

A house that is put up on a nice-graded lot, where rain water is designed to flow away from the house, and a home that has a suitable gutter system is in a stronger position to withstand these problems than a house which does not have decent lot grading or appropriate gutters.

The specific natural characteristics of the soil and dirt on your lot is a major factor.

Certain particular varieties of soil retain far more moisture than other varieties will, so they can swell up and expand more than others will.

Fortunately, right along the coast, the soil is generally classified as being only somewhat absorbent.

So our soil won’t contract and swell as much as some other soil types around the country or the central part of California.

An additional cause for property issues is keeping a large tree that is too close to your house.

A large-sized tree may cause concerns if those roots stretch underneath the residence and put demands on your slab, or interfere with water pipes.

The roots from a major tree that is right next to your house can also extract considerable amounts of moisture away from the dirt underneath your property, making the soil too dry during our Summertime dry period.

Natural environmental stress can help cause slight cracks starting in your home’s structure.

These small cracks permit moisture and other things.

And these modest breaks can get larger as time goes on.

Can I Wait and Deal With It Later?

If you’ve got a situation at your SoCal house, you probably should get it looked over and repaired.

It normally isn’t something you should put off for long.

A homeowner shouldn’t just ignore the situation and just hope it magically goes away.

These problems won’t go away.

Basement foundation crack repair is an issue you should do something about soon as opposed to later.

Remember, your foundation literally is holding up the whole building.

The walls all count on it.

If you forget to fix it you may end up in a serious place a year from now.

Water consistently leaking under a house may cause trouble including mold. And mold doesn’t get any better on its own.

It only gets worse.

If you are considering listing and selling your house, just remember, no home buyer is thinking of buying a house with a structural condition or which has warning signs of moisture down underneath it.

Plus, if you know your house has a serious structure or water problem, you are required to disclose to the buyer of what it is.

You do not want the buyer to come back after you a few months after the sale is over.

They can create a plan to fix the situation.

Try to not worry.

Even lots of predicaments that appear to the property owner to be too difficult to resolve can typically be corrected.

Granted, the work might call for a complicated and often challenging process, but they can be done.
