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>

What is the average cost to repair a concrete driveway?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cracks-concrete-driveway-repair-vs-replace.htm">cost to repair a concrete driveway</a> is between $830 and $2,800, but your costs depend on the extent of the damage. For instance, raising or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/concrete-leveling-cost-effective-alternative.htm">leveling concrete</a> costs $3 to $25 per square foot, while resurfacing your driveway may cost $3 to $5 per square foot. Meanwhile, small cracks may only cost between $0.10 and $0.15 per linear foot and can be DIYed with synthetic crack filler. </p></div>

How else can I improve the look of my exposed foundation?

• <div><p>If your foundation is unfinished, has surface damage, or is just plain unappealing, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/foundation-refacing.htm">foundation refacing</a> can be another great way to increase your curb appeal and give your foundation a fresh look. Used in conjunction with foundation planting, refacing can completely change the look of your foundation and your home. </p></div>

Q: Does house settling mean foundation issues?

• <div><p>No, house settling is normal as your home&rsquo;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&rsquo;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.</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>

I appreciated the thorough prep work including power washing, priming and making some minor repairs where wood had gone bad. The crew gave attention to details - Mike even did some special painting to make the decorative molding on the peak of the house “pop”.
