#AtoZ Challenge – F is for Foundation Issues

Improper drainage leads to gradual foundation damage. You can go for years and barely notice a problem. Then you reach a tipping point, and foundation damage can become a costly nightmare.

Foundation drainage problems can result from too much moisture as well as too little. Standing water around your home, large amounts of water dumped by gutter downspouts, or a negative slope of the area around your home can cause saturated soil, which seeps into and eventually erodes your foundation.

Do you see excessive puddling or ponding around your home after a heavy rain? Do your basement walls dribble water? Do you have small yet slowly growing cracks in your basement walls? All of the above questions are warning signs for foundation issues.
