Award Winning and Highly Rated Repair Solutions
A: Foundation issues should always be addressed immediately. Minor cracks can sometimes be indicative of more serious structural concerns. It’s crucial to consult with foundation repair experts like Groundworks for a thorough evaluation and appropriate repair solutions.
While musty odors are common in basements with moisture intrusion, they should not be considered acceptable or normal. Musty smells indicate an unsafe, unhealthy condition impacting your living environment and family’s well-being. If you detect unusual basement odors, don’t ignore or mask them—have your basement professionally inspected and repaired promptly.
The ideal humidity range in both crawl spaces and living areas is 50-55%. Below 50% creates overly dry, unhealthy air conditions while humidity exceeding 55% enables mold growth and spread.
Uneven foundation settlement can occur due to various factors, such as soil contraction during dry periods, soil expansion during heavy rains or flooding, improper soil compaction at construction, and erosion from poor drainage or clogged gutters. If you suspect foundation issues, contact Groundworks for a free inspection and estimate.
We advise against DIY concrete lifting and repair. Although products like mudjacking concrete and self-leveling compounds are available, incorrect mixing and application are common issues. Specialized tools and equipment, which can be expensive for one-time use, are also required. It’s best to leave concrete leveling to professionals like Groundworks for optimal results.
