Look for cracks in walls or floors, doors or windows that stick, uneven floors, water in the basement, and gaps between walls and ceilings. If you see any of these signs, get a professional to check your foundation.

Foundation cracks can happen because of soil settling, water pressure, poor drainage, tree roots, or big temperature changes. It's best to have a professional check to find out why and how to fix it.

The time it takes to fix a foundation depends on how bad the damage is and what kind of repair is needed. Simple crack sealing might take a day or two, but bigger repairs could take several weeks. We'll give you a timeline after we look at your foundation.
