Description
In this presentation, we will take an in-depth look at how to identify foundation settlement problems, failing basement walls, and settling columns or sagging beams in a crawl space. We will examine the common causes of these structural problems, such as ever-changing moisture content of soil and poor compaction of fill soil. Finally, we’ll discuss the pros and cons of various options for repair, and how these repairs are able to restore property value without excessive cost. MD Approved
