Are foundation repairs permanent?

• <div><p>Some foundation repairs are permanent, like underpinning and exterior drainage systems like the French drain. These fixes address the underlying problems—insufficient support from the soil and hydrostatic pressure on your foundation walls, respectively—so they can last for many decades, making them “lifetime fixes.” There are other solutions to address these issues that will last for up to a decade, making them temporary. These include slabjacking to raise concrete slabs back into place and dampproofing to reduce the water in the soil that interacts with the concrete foundation. </p></div>

Q: How do you fix water damaged concrete?

• <div><p>You can patch minor cracks and damage yourself using concrete fillers or mortar. Larger damage may require full replacement of affected slabs. However, water damage to your concrete will never disappear unless you address the root cause causing the water to cumulate. To prevent future damage, you can also waterproof your concrete.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to repair a cinder block foundation?

• <div><p>The actual <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-foundation-repair-cost.htm">foundation repair costs</a> will depend on the extent of the damage, how many blocks you need, labor costs, and material costs. As an estimate, the average repair costs for a cinder block foundation fall between <b>$350 and $25,000</b>. Because the range is so large, it&rsquo;s important to call a professional foundation repair company and have them assess the damage and estimate the repair costs.</p></div>

Q: What does a bad house foundation look like?

• <div><p>While it can be difficult to identify a bad foundation at first glance, look for large horizontal cracks, discoloration, bulging basement walls, or signs of water damage. You may also see large gaps between the home and the foundation on the outside or signs of pooling water from a recent storm.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain a raised foundation?

• <div><p>Regular inspections, proper drainage management, and ensuring soil stability help prevent future settlement issues.</p></div>

Did a very professional job and were honest about the condition of the systems. I have old systems, and both needed to be checked and cleaned, but no repairs were needed (which I knew), and they didn't try to talk me into unneeded repair work.
