What If I’m Not Sure I Have a Problem or Not?

When it comes to understanding home structure issues, sometimes the homeowner realizes right away something is wrong. Sometimes, the signs are really clear.

Other times the symptoms are difficult to see. These issues can happen in all types of houses, no matter what kind of design or age they are.

Items to Watch For At Your Property:

• Cracks in interior or exterior brick walls
• Splits in sheet rock between a door frame and ceiling
• New spaces around doors and their frames, commonly exterior doors and garage doors
• Pitched or uneven floors
• Separation or spaces between exterior walls or a wall and chimney
• Separated or cracked interior molding, often crown or door molding
• Big cracks in a cement foundation or basement floor
• Water, dampness or a musty smell in your basement
• Spaces between a ceiling and a wall or ceiling and floor
• Windows or doors that close hard or stick to their frames when you open them
• Floors are sagging, warped or a floor tile is loose or broken
• Water collects near your house after a rain or in your crawlspace

Park and Kennedy Slab Jacking Services

When a section of your cement sidewalk or courtyard has sunk a little into the soil, they can resolve that as well. The approach used to correct it is known as mudjacking (some people refer to it as slab jacking).

Slabjacking is a unique treatment.

The procedure consists of pumping a thick mud-like solution beneath that portion of concrete which has gotten too low. The mud compound flows in all of the spaces under the concrete and then incrementally pressures the slab up to the height it initially was at.

When your concrete slabs are all at the same height, your walkway, porch or courtyard will look better and people won’t be tripping and stumbling on the uneven edges of adjoining sections any longer.

Why Is This Issue Happening to Me?

Well, it’s just how our soil acts. The soil which is under your home routinely alters, shifts and moves a little. It swells and tightens based upon exposure to water and temperature.

This regular expansion and contraction of the soil places significant force on even a solid house.

Some homeowners experience difficulties in these areas; most others do not. One of the significant variables in blocking property foundation situations is how much water is around and under your home.

The unique physical makeup of the soil and dirt on your lot is a major contributing variable. Certain particular varieties of soil retain far more moisture than other varieties do, so they can swell and then contract more than others will.

Certain soils with a high concentration of clays retain a lot of water and then dry out and contract to a severe degree. Unfortunately, some of these clay soils are found in certain areas of San Joaquin Valley.

One more cause for structure problems that many homeowners overlook is having a broad tree too too close to your residence. There is a chance of a challenge if the roots of a tree push under the house and put pressure on your slab, water and sewer piping.

In some rare situations, the long roots of a big tree that is too close to a house can also suck moisture out of the ground under the building, which makes it too dried out during our hot and dry Summer seasons.

These elements can promote the start of modest cracks over time in solid surfaces such as concrete. Small cracks bring in air and moisture and might become big cracks. And merely one sizable crack can cause problems.

Can’t I Wait and Get It Done Later?

If you have a challenge with your CA home, just call and have it looked over. It is not something you should delay.

And if you find out you should get some work done, you should not disregard that information.

Don’t forget, your basement structure lifts up the whole house. The floors, roof and walls rely on it. These problems should be covered when they are discovered.

When you’ve got moisture leaking in your basement, it can lead to troubles such as mildew and mold. And these situations won’t get any better over time.

Some property owners want to put maintenance off since they believe they will be moving soon. But it’s hard to sell a house that contains signals which might indicate a foundation problem. Real estate buyers get scared of being stuck with a substantial repair as soon as they move in.

As a house seller, it is advisable to reveal to the buyer all big troubles with your property or you may be in trouble down the road. So you should not simply try to ignore your problem and then leave it for the next owner.

Try to relax, many situations where a property owner might imagine to be too difficult to correct can generally be repaired. The repairs could call for a tricky and sometimes challenging procedure, however it can be done. They can do the work.
