Foundation Floor Repair Near Springdale

Cracked or uneven basement floors aren’t something to be ignored. While small hairline cracks that stay the same size don’t usually pose a problem, growing or leaking cracks indicate structural failure. This means something is compromising the stability of your foundation.

Symptoms of Foundation Heave or Settlement

Normal cracks in cement happen during the curing process; these sometimes appear as shrinkage occurs while freshly poured cement dries. Shrinkage cracks are small and don’t ever change in shape or size. Cracks that you should worry about are ones that change, known as “active cracks,” or appear unlevel.

The symptoms you DO need to be concerned about include:

  • Cracks larger than a “hairline” crack
  • Active cracks that keep growing
  • Leaks in your foundation floor
  • Floor slab cracks that are uneven
