An unstable foundation is something that should never be taken lightly. If you’re worried about the costs to inspect a foundation, basement, or crawl space, don’t be. We provide free evaluations and estimates with no obligation to residential and commercial customers throughout Akron and Summit County.
A foundation that is failing can be very expensive to repair, not to mention dangerous to occupants and devastating to the structure if not assessed in a reasonable time period by a certified local contractor.
No-cost foundation inspections provide the benefit of peace of mind for homeowners. Best of all, you’re not required to pay a large sum of your hard-earned cash to a professional when no structural problems are present.
Many foundation issues are obvious even to the untrained observer, most notably significant cracking or bowing. Yet, other problems are less obvious. If you have reason to think your foundation may be damaged or unstable, there is zero risk in scheduling an evaluation with our foundation contractors in Akron, OH.
No-cost assessments that are thorough
So you’re thinking about schedule a free inspection for your home or commercial building. What exactly does that entail?
Here’s what you get:
- Thorough examination of the interior and exterior walls and floors. We look for signs of sagging and sinking, window and wall cracks, bowing and leaning, as well as soil and grading issues outside that may be putting pressure on the foundation.
- In our post-inspection report, we present the problem in detail (if one exists) and offer trusted solutions (if necessary) so that you can make an informed decision according to the issue and your means.
- With the report, we also provide an accurate repair estimate, detailed plan of action, and rough timetable for work to be completed.
Call us to learn more about our free assessments and quotes. Please note that you must own or be in the process of buying the home for the inspection to be free.
Signs your foundation, basement, or crawl space is failing
We suggest routinely examining your basement walls and floors to ensure that they are in good shape – especially in older houses and structures. Foundations rarely show signs of damage overnight. Instead, they endure wear and tear from soil pressure, dryness, drastic weather changes, freezing and thawing, root intrusion from nearby trees, improper grading, poor soil and other factors over periods of weeks, months and years.
In your investigation, look closely for the following:
- Chips and cracks in concrete walls
- Wet basement floor
- Musty odors from moisture
- Cracking drywall
- Leaning or tipping walls
- Bouncy flooring on top levels
- Wet and expanded soil outside
- Plumbing leaks
- Jammed doors and windows
- Uneven and sagging flooring
- Window squares out of place
- Gaps at the tops and bottoms of walls
- Tipping chimney
- Gaps around chimney
- Misplaced moldings
- Misaligned door and window frames
- Popped out nails
