Most Common Reasons Foundation Repair is Required
Damage to your home’s base may require foundation repair. New Jersey experts explain the causes of cracks and issues in your substructure.
(firmenpresse) - Your home is much more than a building; it’s where you make memories, grow a family, and enjoy your life. However, the reality is that a house is actually a valuable financial asset, and to allow you to experience the full potential of your home, it’s important to stay on top of those mundane but vital tasks such as foundation repair. New Jersey experts have decades of experience in supporting you with the upkeep of your property, and they will have a wealth of knowledge and expertise to share with you to maintain a safe and secure home.
Foundation failure can be stressful and expensive if you don’t know why it is happening, so here are some reasons for such issues, and how a reputable foundation repair company can help.
Water
Water is a fact of life, even in New Jersey’s relatively moderate climate. When there is variation in the moisture content of the soil below a building’s foundations, different components of the soil will swell and some will shrink. This can bring about movements beneath the foundations, especially where the foundations have a high clay content. These shifts can cause cracks, which may require foundation repair.
Drainage
If water can become trapped underneath your structure, it will build up over time. This may lead to the soil becoming eroded or consolidated, and with expansive clay soils, heaving can occur. These issues may require foundation repair if they are left untreated.
Flora
Linked to the effects of water, plant life below your home can affect the moisture levels in the substructure. Because plants need water to grow, they pull liquid from the ground around the building, dehydrating the soil and causing shrinkage. Again, this can eventually cause conditions that require foundation repair.
Quality of preparation
When constructing a property, the ground and building site must be prepared properly to avoid future issues requiring foundation repair. The soil needs to be stabilised securely in ‘cut and fill’ procedures, in which soil is removed from one area of the site to another in order to be built upon. Furthermore, the ground underneath the transplanted soil must be properly compacted, or unexpected movements can occur.
Natural events
Nature will play a large part in the security of your base, and things like earthquakes, floods, droughts and extreme seasonal changes can all increase the likelihood of damage. Luckily, temperatures in New Jersey don’t fluctuate too wildly, but any big shifts from Mother Nature will potentially be a cause of problems.
There are many causes of instability in the groundwork of your property, with water and poor planning being amongst the most common. It is vital to understand how these issues can arise in order to protect your financial investment and to ensure your continued happiness and security in your home in the future. Sourcing an experienced and well-regarded maintenance and repair company can give you the comfort of knowing your foundations are secure, safe in the knowledge that should you need any foundation repair work, it can be carried out professionally, to a high standard.
