Concrete Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, a house can collapse from severe foundation problems if left unchecked, which is why it’s so important to carry out routine foundation inspections and call for repairs at the first sign of an issue. Foundation cracks often take years to get to the point where your home is at risk of collapsing. Implementing a solution quickly, even if your issue seems minor, is always worthwhile.

Underpinning is a type of foundation repair in which a repair specialist installs piers under your foundation to provide additional support for the concrete and structure above. Foundation repair is an umbrella term that includes many other repair methods, including foundation crack repair, waterproofing, cosmetic repair, concrete block wall stabilization, and more.

The best solution to fix a foundation crack in your basement floor depends on the underlying cause. If you just have hairline cracks from settlements that are no longer growing, the best option is to seal them with a crack sealant. If the cracks continue to grow, one edge rises above the other, or there are signs that water is getting in through the crack, a professional repair will be necessary. Depending on the root cause, your professional may employ foundation underpinning or some other type of stabilization, seal the cracks, or install a drainage system.

Periodic sealing and cleaning to maintain appearance and integrity.

Homeowner’s insurance doesn’t cover foundation cracks unless they’re a result of a natural disaster like an earthquake, vandalism, or a vehicle accident that causes sudden damage. Taking care of your foundation to prevent problems with expansive soil and drainage is considered ongoing maintenance, and your insurance company expects the homeowner to carry out that preventative maintenance.
