All homes naturally settle over time—it's a normal occurrence and not always a cause for alarm. However, differentiating between normal settling and situations that require the intervention of a foundation repair expert can help eliminate unnecessary worry and ensure the longevity of your property.
Is there a foundation repair in your future or is your home just having the normal settling issues?

 

Recognizing Signs of Foundation Settlement

 

Foundation settlement can manifest in a variety of ways, and understanding these signs is crucial in determining whether your home needs professional attention.

 

Cracks in Walls, Floors, or Ceilings: While small, hairline cracks are often a part of normal house settling, larger, wide-ranging cracks could indicate serious foundation settlement issues.
Sticking Doors and Windows: If you start noticing doors and windows that are hard to open or close, it could be a sign that your foundation is settling unevenly.
Uneven Floors: Sloping or uneven floors are a classic sign of foundation issues. If you notice your floors aren't level, it might be time to consult a foundation expert.
Gaps Around Window Frames or Exterior Doors: Gaps around windows and doors can be an indication that your foundation is shifting.

 

Recognizing these signs early can save you from costly repairs down the line. Remember, it's better to consult a professional if you're unsure.
