House Leveling Austin
House leveling is the process of bringing the foundation’s lowest points up to the same elevation as the highest points. This process ensures that the house is once again level and on a sturdy foundation. Over time a home’s foundation can shift for a number of reasons: the elements, environmental concerns, construction issues and more. A failing foundation will allow your home to sink and sag causing significant interior and exterior damage and costly repairs. Therefore, ensuring that your home is on a sturdy and level foundation is essential.
Does Your Foundation Need Leveling?
Often when a residential foundation has issues there are interior signs. Things like cracked walls, sticking doors or doors that won’t shut properly, sagging floors, walls that no longer meet the ceiling or the floor, among other issues are signs that your home’s foundation may need leveling.
If you have concerns about the structural integrity of you foundation, a member of our team can inspect your home and advise you on whether or not your house needs leveling. Our inspection will also assess any damages and estimate the cost for repairs before leveling to ensure that your foundation is as healthy as it can be.
How We Level a Pier and Beam Foundation
At Quality Foundation Repair Austin – House Leveling Specialist, we specialize in pier and beam foundations. Our process involves a thorough inspection to determine the overall health of your foundation. We will then make any repairs necessary to get the beam in good shape. We then place jacks at every pier in order to do a whole house adjustment. Using a measuring device inside the house, we will check the level as we adjust the entire house. Once we reach the desired level, we install steel shims that will not deteriorate or compress. We then remove the jacks and the house is now level.
Save money in the long run and preserve the structural integrity of your home by making sure that your house is level. If you have questions about house leveling or are in need of help with your foundation, call Quality Foundation Repair at (512)363-7769.
