"He came to house I game him arch. plans of bath and closet he came back with no drawings and no plans - said he had to take pictures.(for what??) As I recall he took pictures the first time too. I finally called to get my original plans back. He lives in Santa Fe and works often in Albuquerque. I drove to Albuquerque and met him in the parking lot of UPS, about 35 miles from my home.and he gave me several computer generated drawings with only open rack shelves where i have cabinets with doors and open rack shelves for entire closet- no room for hanging clothes. switched toilet and bidet so that door would be blocked by toilet. He was very nice and the three areas of drywall repair look good. I am expecting to use the $$ I paid via Angie promotional will cover the drywall."

The best foundation repair method will depend on the issue you’re having, but usually, foundation instability is best fixed using supportive piers, like steel piers or helical piers. A professional foundation repair contractor or structural engineer should always decide what the best course of action is, and even then, it’s imperative that you also take measures to treat the underlying issue as well, like soil erosion or oversaturation from runoff.
If your foundation isn’t properly square, there’s a chance that anything you built before detecting the issue may need to be torn down. A major miscalculation could leave some walls of your home unsupported.
Many horizontal cracks in home foundations result from water and soil pressure from outside of the building or from a footing that is shifting. Under those circumstances, horizontal cracks are a structural problem that requires repair before they become worse and more difficult to fix. However, in very specific cases, thin horizontal cracks may simply be a cosmetic blemish due to concrete shrinkage.
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.
Yes, you can fill cracks in concrete if you’re a somewhat handy homeowner. It’s important to know which concrete patching method to use, as small cracks require different approaches than large ones. It might seem challenging to determine which product to use and the tools necessary for the project, but with a bit of background, homeowners can restore their cracked concrete easily.
