Why Do Foundations Crack in Farmers Branch TX?

Improper Drainage & Seasonal Weather Changes

Improper drainage is one of the most frequent causes of cracked foundations. Too much water pools around the foundation, causing cracks to form due to soil erosion. French drains and downspout diverters can help reduce this problem. Seasonal weather changes is another cause of cracked foundations and will cause the expansive soil under your home to change. In wet and cool weather, soil expands and causes your foundation to heave. Hot weather dries out soil and makes your foundation settle.

Problems with Trees & Shrubs

Large trees absorb approximately 40,000 gallons of water a month. Large trees and oversized shrubs can quickly diminish the amount of water in your soil. We don’t recommend cutting down trees, but you can add some drought tolerant shrubs around your home to reduce the risk of foundation failure. Root barriers are a great option for trees growing too close to the home.

Slab Leaks & Broken Waste Water Pipes

Broken waste water pipes don’t pose a problem in modern homes with PVC pipes, but older homes with cast iron pipes often develop holes that leak water into the soil. Before we lift the foundation, we can perform a static water test to determine if this poses a threat. After we life the home, we perform this test again to validate the warranty and eliminate any further problems.

Our Farmers Branch Foundation Repair Process

Repair experts from our foundation repair company go through a proven five-step method to repair your foundation. Before we begin any leveling or repair work, the first step we perform is a thorough inspection and measurement of your foundation. We look for areas where the foundation is failing and discuss with you the best course of action to bring your building back to level.

The second step involves using an independent engineer to evaluate the inspection report and verify the placement of the leveling piers. We use independent engineers to ensure that all of our foundation repair work meets the highest standards. This protects your best interests as well as our own. Because of this third party, you are guaranteed an unbiased engineer opinion.

After we have the engineer sign off on our proposition, we begin to install the piers. We dig 2’ x 2’ holes in predetermined spots around the perimeter of your building to install the piers. You can rest assured that we take special care to preserve any landscaping we need to remove to dig the holes in your property for your foundation repair.

After we drive the piers in place, our lifting team gets to work. They lift the building foundation from the holes simultaneously. Our final step involves cleaning up. We refill all holes and replant any shrubs or plants we had to move. Finally, we distribute all extra dirt to various areas in your lawn. If the reason your foundation failed was due to improper drainage or grading, we will re-grade your property and install French drains. These simple solutions will protect your foundation by redirecting rain and waste water away from it.
