"They completed it in 2 days and I havent had an issue since the basement was waterproofed. However, they did forget to plan the initial inspection prior to the work as part of the permit. The city I live in ended up reaching out near the end of the permit date and I didnt know about it until then. I reached out to the project manager for my project at Acculevel about it and they did handle that issue promptly."

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

New constructions need time to “settle” and sometimes, small hairline cracks occur as a result. Larger horizontal or “stair step” cracks, however, are usually a sign of a deeper, more severe issue. It could indicate an issue with the soil beneath the home, a problem caused by an overgrown tree, or another problem.

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 problems are costly to repair, but if you already own the home, you can either handle the issues or allow the property to (literally) sink into disrepair. The opposite is true when buying a home. Walk away if the seller refuses to lower the asking price once foundation issues are exposed or if they refuse to handle the problems before the completion of the sale.

Underpinning a foundation is when a contractor installs deep piers under your foundation to provide support. Professionals often use this foundation repair method when the soil underneath the foundation is no longer strong enough to support the house evenly. Underpinning a foundation often comes with other repairs to tackle the source of the problem. For example, a contractor may regrade your yard around your home’s foundation to make sure water drains away from your house.
