What happens if you don’t fix foundation problems?

• <div><p>Foundation problems will likely get worse over time if they aren’t repaired. As foundation problems progress, your home may experience signs of structural damage, water damage, and health and safety risks—all of which will only get more expensive to fix the longer you wait. Repair foundation problems as soon as you’re aware of them to avoid complex and expensive remediation in the future.</p></div>

Is slab-on-grade good?

• <div><p>A slab-on-grade or slab foundation is a great option in many areas—usually in warm or moderate climates—and has been a successful foundation style for many decades. Slab foundations don’t require excavation or concrete block wall construction, so they’re the least expensive foundation type. They’re also the fastest to construct and don’t have many issues with moisture or water intrusion. However, they don’t give you extra storage space or potential living space like a crawl space or basement would, and they’re not ideal in colder areas where utility lines can freeze and frost heave can cause major damage.</p></div>

Q: How do you seal a leaky concrete slab?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-seal-concrete.htm">seal a concrete slab</a> by cleaning the surface, filling in any cracks, etching the surface, applying a sealer, and letting it dry. Concrete slabs don't typically need sealing, but you can use a topical concrete sealer if you notice signs of water damage. If you haven't already fixed the cause of the leak, then you'll want to repair the plumbing before you seal a concrete slab.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance is recommended for solidifying a foundation?

• <div><p>Periodic inspections and addressing drainage issues prevent further damage.</p></div>

Q: When does water damage a foundation?

• <div><p>Water damage to a foundation often starts as a slow leak or water vapor problem that worsens over the course of months or even years. The speed at which foundation leaks worsen depends on a few factors, including your climate and location, the soil composition around your home, the foundation drainage system you have in place, if any, and the type of foundation you have. Even if you have a minor issue that&rsquo;s slow to develop, it&rsquo;s best to have a professional address the issue immediately.</p></div>
