"Thomas and Like arrived on time and met with me to verify the scope of work. I showed them one additional item that I would like to be completed and they were able to do that. They met with me a couple of times during the project to show me what had been done and what limitations they were looking at based on the condition of the concrete. They completed the work and showed me what they had accomplished. I was extremely satisfied with their work. Great team and good representatives of LRE Ground Services/Foundation Repair."

"I would recommend Mark in a heartbeat. He's honest. He could have told me I had problems that I didn't have and I wouldn't have known any better. He spent over an hour going over my house in all the problem areas and said that the problem wasn't my foundation. The crumbling concrete was from the rebar rusting inside the concrete, causing it to expand, crack and crumble. I had the same issue on a couple of window ledges. The problem with my blinds turned out to be a problem with tile. 4 tiles at one end sounded hollow underneath and had raised slightly, causing the blinds to press against them. Since they do concrete work, I asked him if he could repair/replace the concrete base for the door and the window ledges and he told me that he could, but that I would be much better having someone else do it. He said he would have to charge me double what others charge because his rate is based on foundation work and that's the rate he would have to charge. He even told me that the repairs I needed shouldn't cost more than $500 with a regular concrete company and that if someone tried to charge me more they were ripping me off. So he gave me an honest inspection (free) for over an hour, suggested I have someone else do the repair work and even told me how much I should expect to pay with someone else. I've never met another contractor with such good business ethics. The only weak point (and it's a stretch) is that sometimes it takes him some time to get back to you. But to me, even that is a plus, because that means he's in such demand, and after meeting him, I can understand why."

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

While a contractor is on-site repairing your concrete steps, you can have them inspect other concrete surfaces for minor damage. They may be able to fix cracks in your driveway or garage floor during the same visit. You can also ask them to check your home's foundation for minor issues they can address. However, general concrete repair experts typically cannot handle larger jobs, like leveling a sunken foundation. For major structural projects, you will need to hire a structural engineer.

Most houses are expected to settle over time, but foundation sinking of more than a few inches or uneven sinking of more than an inch for every 20 feet is cause for concern. Any significant or uneven sinking should be assessed by a professional to determine the cause and perform any necessary repairs. 

If your concrete steps have crumbled or chipped, you can fix them by removing any chips or flakes, cleaning and wetting the affected area, applying a concrete bonding agent, and finally applying new concrete, usually in the form of Portland cement. For widespread damage, you can consider concrete resurfacing instead. For fixing concrete spalling that has led to deep damage, you might need to remove damaged material, add structural supports, and pour new concrete into a mold.

Foundation cracks that are 1/8 inch wide or less, aren’t uneven across the gap, and don’t continue widening over time are usually just normal settling cracks and don’t suggest structural issues. Horizontal cracks and stair-step cracks on foundation walls, any cracks that continue widening, are wider than 1/8 inch, or where one side juts out beyond the other, are often indicative of structural damage.

If foundation problems are not fixed, they will likely worsen over time, leading to more complex and expensive repairs. Neglecting a damaged foundation can cause a range of issues, including:

  • Structural Damage: Minor problems like small cracks can escalate into major structural issues. This can damage the house above the foundation and, in severe cases, lead to foundation walls caving in or a total collapse.

  • Water Damage and Pests: Moisture and water intrusion can cause flooding, mold growth, and pest infestations.

  • Health and Safety Risks: Mold can lead to poor indoor air quality and other health risks, while structural instability poses a significant safety hazard.

  • Reduced Home Efficiency: A compromised foundation can negatively impact your home's energy efficiency.

To avoid these escalating problems and costs, it's best to hire a foundation repair company to address any issues as soon as you become aware of them. The earlier problems are discovered and fixed, the lower the repair cost will likely be.
