Foundation Repairs

A foundation crack is either cosmetic or structural, and the whole cost of the job depends on which one you have. That is the first thing we establish.

What this actually is

Not every crack is a structural problem. Shrinkage cracks in poured concrete are common and often cosmetic. Horizontal cracking, bowing, stair-step patterns through masonry and any crack that is actively widening are a different conversation.

We measure and document the movement, establish whether water is driving it, and repair accordingly. Crack injection, carbon fibre reinforcement, repointing, rebuilt parging, or underpinning where the footing itself has failed.

Then we waterproof, because almost every foundation problem in this region is a water problem wearing a structural hat. Repairing the wall without fixing the drainage that damaged it is how people end up paying twice.

Signs you have this problem

  • A crack that has visibly widened over a season
  • Stair-step cracking through brick or block mortar joints
  • Doors or windows that have started to stick on one side of the house
  • A wall that bows inward, or a floor that slopes
  • Chronic damp or efflorescence across a foundation wall
  • Crumbling parging or mortar at or below grade

Questions people ask

Foundation Repairs, answered plainly.

Sometimes. If the movement is active, or the repair changes how the building carries load, you want an engineer's letter. We will tell you so, and work to their specification. For most water-driven foundation work, you do not.

Foundation movement from long-term settlement or groundwater usually is not. Damage from a sudden event sometimes is. We document either way so you can put the question to your carrier with evidence.

We can, and on a genuinely cosmetic crack that is the right answer. On a wall that is wet because of what is happening outside it, an interior seal moves the problem rather than solving it.
