FOUNDATION REPAIR IN ATHENS, OHIO

foundation repair company in Athens, OhioAthens, Ohio has soil that consists of mostly clay. Clay soils are referred to as expansive soils. This means that when it rains heavily, it expands and when it becomes very dry, it shrinks. This causes the soil to constantly shift and create voids beneath the foundation. As the soil is shifting, so is your foundation.

When water pools around your home this can also cause foundation problems. It puts pressure on the foundation walls which causes bowing and leaning, and occasionally, wall cracks will form and leaks will occur. A homeowner can address any water damage or foundation failure by contacting Matthews Wall Anchor & Waterproofing Services for foundation repair needs in Athens, Ohio.

BASEMENT WATERPROOFING IN ATHENS, OHIO

If you have encountered water damage to your foundation, you have many solutions to help you take care of the problem. One thing you should do is check your gutters. Clogged gutters are a leading cause of water in the basement. The water runs right over the edge and lands next to the wall. It has nowhere to go but through any cracks you may have in your foundation. As concrete ages, it will likely develop cracks. If left unattended, the cracks will get larger and water will rot the sheetrock, insulation, and be a threat to electrical wiring. Matthews Wall Anchor & Waterproofing Services recommends that the homeowner checks the landscape to make sure water is moving away from the foundation. A modern sump pump and drain system is another good solution to keeping your interior dry. We have many choices from Earth Contact Products Pro-Series sump pumps to choose for your home. We will also help with crack repair and prevention.
