Foundation Issues Aren’t Cosmetic—They’re Structural
We specialize in evaluating residential foundation defects by reviewing geotechnical reports, slab design, drainage plans, and execution methods. When builders cut corners—whether on concrete strength, depth, compaction, or waterproofing—we document how and why the failure occurred. Our findings support liability claims and clarify the cause of long-term damage.
Foundation Warning Signs
- Diagonal wall cracks near doors or windows
- Floors sloping toward corners or exterior walls
- Gaps between baseboards and flooring edges
- Water pooling near foundation after rainfall
- Doors that stick, drag, or don’t fully close
- Vertical cracks in stem walls or block joints
- Exterior bricks separating at mortar lines
Understanding Design Load, Drainage & Site Prep Failures
We review foundation plans, rebar layout, engineering specs, and soil compaction tests to determine where compliance fell short. In many cases, the root cause stems from low-cost shortcuts that ignored building code and engineering intent. This documentation becomes vital for insurance claims, breach of contract cases, and structural defect litigation.
How We Help Resolve Foundation Disputes
Our analysis includes plan comparison, defect photos, on-site measurements, and local code references. This helps attorneys, property owners, and insurers pursue financial recovery, stop further structural loss, and enforce contractor accountability.
