Cracks in the Foundation & Dry Wall

At Warner Foundation Services, we get a lot of phone calls for cracks in walls, cracks in the dry wall and ceilings, as well as cracks on the exterior walls of the home. Cracks typically mean that the structure has settled in some areas causing part of the home to shift or sink. This unbalance causes the structure to separate and crack, and as a result the walls will start to crack.

Doors & Windows are Sticking

Another very common issue is when doors and windows begin to stick and become difficult to open and close. This is another sign that the home has settled and most likely the house will need some foundation piers to level the structure and fix the problem. As a home owner it is important to do some research on the different types of piers that each company uses. Read about the the DynaPier® compared to other common foundation piers.

Water is Leaking Into the Basement

Common signs that your home needs repair is when water leaks into the basement. This is another common problem that we can fix quickly. Water can get in a number of ways including, leaking over the top of the footer, leaking floor cracks, seeping between the basement wall and floor, leaking wall cracks and windows. We find the source of the water leak and fix it fast. It’s important to take care of it sooner rather than later so that there is no major water damage to the home.
