The Causes of your Home’s Foundation Settlement
Evaporation
Hot and dry conditions may
cause soil to pull away from the foundation.
Settlement due to this foundation moisture
imbalance could cause cracks to appear
throughout the structure.
Transpiration
Tree roots could dehydrate
the soil beneath a home causing soil
shrinkage.
Plumbing Leaks
Water from leaky
plumbing is often a major contributor to
foundation problems including heaving.
Drainage
Improper drainage will lead to
excess moisture build up, which could
erode or consolidate soils. Excessive moisture may cause heaving of expansive soils.
Site Preparation
Cut and fill situations,
where soil is removed from part of the
building site and stacked on another,
needs proper soil stabilization before a
structure is built; otherwise unexpected
movements of the soil beneath the foundation may occur.
