"I called Montana Basement Solutions when we discovered mold in our basement. We were stressed and worried about the safety of our children in the home. When I called, the receptionist quickly put me in touch with Rich, who talked me through the process and helped give me information about what I could do prior to having someone come out. He set up a time when one of the guys would be close to town and waved the travel fee since he would be in this area anyway. He was kind, knowledgable and made me feel like he really wanted to help us. Wynn came out a few days later and gave us tons of information. He walked us through what we needed to do and was willing to spend an exorbitant amount of time, late into the evening, prior to a long drive home, explaining everything we needed to know about our problem. He addressed every one of our concerns and answered all of our questions in depth. He was friendly, knowledgable and professional. I would highly recommend this company. From the very first phone call, I have been so pleased with the customer service I have received. I had called 4 other companies prior to and after talking with Montana Basement Solutions, 2 who said they would come out two days later ( never heard from them) and 1 that still has not called back (and I have left 2 messages). I am so grateful for the time Wynn gave to us and did I mention , he did all of this free of charge? He also gave me the answer to my problem and it did not require me using their services. If you have a mold problem, I would start with Montana Basement Solutions."

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

If you don’t have any access to or knowledge of any area underneath your home, chances are it’s built slab-on-grade. You can also look for the concrete around the bottom edge of your structure; if it’s just a few inches tall, it’s likely a slab. If it’s more than that, has any windows, or you have steps leading to your main entrance, you likely have a different foundation style.

A sinking foundation can be lifted, most often by installing piers to re-level and support the weight of the house. Depending on the cause and extent of the sinking, other methods to lift a foundation include underpinning and mudjacking. Consult a foundation repair pro to determine the best way to lift your sinking foundation. 

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.

No, house settling is normal as your home’s foundation settles into the soil below and as the framing of your home shifts as it expands and contracts with changes in temperature and moisture. However, if you get to the point where your doors and windows aren’t opening easily, your floors are uneven, or you can visibly see that your roof line is wavy or uneven, you are more likely to have foundation issues.

It depends on the bank and the extent of the issue. Some banks will lend against homes with minor foundation damage, but most won’t if the issue is structural since the home acts as collateral for the mortgage. Banks that offer renovation loans might still finance a home with structural problems. More minor issues like settling cracks and intermittent problems with humidity are unlikely to stop a bank from financing.
