Are Deep Foundation Issues Repairable?

Foundation issues can be repaired if you act within a certain time frame. 

The Worst-Case Scenario 

Damage in foundations will continue to develop and worsen if left unattended—to the point where 

repair work will not be sufficient and replacing the affected parts is the only option. This is a worst-case scenario in which foundation troubles have been left alone for years. 

In most cases, sinking and cracking foundations can be repaired by a JES team. Depending on the cause of the issues, there are different options. Resolving the root cause is a necessity; otherwise, the foundation issues will repeat themselves. 

When Repairs Aren’t Needed 

Poured concrete foundations will commonly see hairline fractures develop as the slab fully cures post-construction. This will happen for a series of months after project completion, and these minor cracks are not a concern. Fractures that are over a set length and width are what you need to be on alert for. Caught early on, these can be repaired easily. 

Foundations can be repaired and reinforced using a variety of JES solutions. To learn what solution your home needs, book a free inspection with one of our foundation repair experts.
