"I have used Hernandez concrete for landscaping and a block wall. They have done amazing work. They are super friendly and professional and do work in a timely manner."
"Due to inclement weather the crews worked extended workdays to complete all work on schedule. They picked up and removed all trash and excess materials daily. The actual work performed was exceptional. I am very pleased with the job and highly recommend this company."
"Roger and his crew of RNH Asphalt installed a jaw-dropping asphalt driveway that includes a roundabout. I m absolutely thrilled with the result and impressed with the incredible speed of the installation and the resulting quality (especially the grade as the property is sloped at different angles!). My neighbors cannot stop talking about it (one called me as he parked his car in front of it on the way to his house!) and another asked for the name of the contractor as they are wanting to repair or replace theirs. The crew worked tirelessly into the evening after completing a prior project in the area and even repaired an unfortunate flat on one of the machines prior to my project (most contractors would have scheduled for a later date). I will definitely use RNH Asphalt for my future projects and highly recommend their services."
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.
You could DIY the work, but unless you have plumber’s knowledge for identifying and fixing a slab leak and specialized equipment in your tool shed, attempting to DIY your slab leak repair isn’t a good idea. It’s simply not something that the average homeowner can take on themselves, regardless of how many successful DIY projects they’ve got under their belt. You could, however, do something simple like foundation waterproofing yourself to save some money on the post-repair work.
Violating building codes can lead to a number of consequences, including fines, citations, and even being required to demolish the structure and start over. If your house isn’t compliant with code requirements, you can also run into trouble when it comes time to get homeowners insurance or sell your house. Following all applicable building codes will avert costly consequences.
Foundation settlement should be a concern if you notice it happening suddenly and years after construction, if the settlement results in signs of structural damage in your home, or if it happens after a flood, nearby sinkhole, or earthquake. Some signs of severe foundation settlement that should prompt you to call a repair specialist include sloping or uneven floors, large cracks in your foundation, moisture issues or pest infestation in your basement or crawl space, and an uneven roofline.
Yes, slab leaks are fairly common, especially in older homes and places that are prone to earthquakes which can move home foundations.
