We Build Experiences!

For the past 45+ years, we’ve been in the repair industry; we’ve realized that issues related to the foundation are common. According to a report released by insurance companies, about 80% of the claims are as a result of foundation problems. It’s for this reason that we avail our foundation repair services. From an expert’s perspective, we can say to you that you will experience this foundation problem in one way or another.
           You may never realize how essential a foundation is to the entire house unless you’re an engineer. A weak foundation can affect the resale of your home negatively. As many house brokers will tell you, a faulty foundation can only attract cricket. It’s usually a turn off to any potential buyer. Thus, we always advise our clients to request for the repairs once they notice a problem with their foundation. 

​How to tell if your foundation needs repair
           When it comes to houses and stuff, a small problem can result in a significant issue, if left unattended. But, the fact that you are not a structural engineer or contractor, it might be difficult to tell when it’s time to ask for a repair on your house foundation. At Foundation Repair Mesquite TX, we always advise our clients to ask for assistance while the problem is still young. You will end up saving a lot. The savings are because dealing with the issue at the last stages can be a bit tricky when it comes to the cost. 
           You don’t need a specialist to do the checking for you because there are a few signs you can observe. For instance, faulty foundations may start by developing a diagonal crack in the brick. Well, the break may start small and continue to grow with time. If you observe such a thing, it’s advisable to call us so that we can evaluate the problem and come up with a solution. 
           Although cracks are the most common signs of a faulty foundation, you may need to check for other indications. For example, you may start to experience standing water around the foundation or even sagging floors. At first, the state may appear reasonable. But, ignored, it can worsen because the sagging will continue to increase day in day out. You don’t need to wait for that long as we are just a call away. 
           Also, some homeowners have complained about their doors and windows failing to close. You may ask how the windows are related to your faulty foundation. Well, as long as the foundation is the mother of everything within the house, it can interfere with your door’s normal functioning.
So, in case you find your door not closing one morning, be sure something is wrong with the foundation. A number of our clients have also called in with complaints about cracks or gaps in the walls and even around the fireplace. Such signs can never be ignored as they can make things worse if undermined. You can always call us to examine the condition and give a professional review. 
           In the few years we’ve dealt with cases related to the foundations, we’ve learned that the age of your house does matter when it comes to the signs they show. For instance, for the modern houses we ever dealt with, we realized that the signs were visible on the outer edges or the home exterior. But, for the older homes, you could witness the symptoms of a faulty foundation from the interior.

 How long do our foundation repairs take?
           Will the entire repair process take a day, a week, or a month? This is a question we get a lot from our clients. Well, it’s good to know based on the fact that you’re the one welcoming us to your private zone. Sadly, we can never give a specific answer to this inquiry. We can only tell the amount of time we’re likely to take once we access the condition of your foundation. The smaller the problem, the faster we can rectify. Some of the issues can even cost a day, while others can last even a week or a month based on the size of your house and the level of the damage. 
Does the insurance cover foundation repair?
           Foundation repairs can be a bit expensive, and that’s based on the size and depth of the damage. As a result, we find most of our clients asking if the insurance covers the repairs. Most insurance policies do cover the costs that may arise from a direct event. An example of an immediate tragedy that the insurance company may consider is a broken pipe flooding your home and causing the damages.
However, it will cost you nothing to call your insurance agent and confirm. Some policies are exceptional and can take care of small repairs. Besides, they can step in based on what caused damages to your foundation.
