With homes, particularly old homes it’s not unheard of for owners to ascribe a slight sense of unlevel floors to ‘character’. If that character comes from hundreds of years old wooden floors quietly bending that may be fine but the problem is that most times the ‘character’ actually means subsoil subsidence and that means your home is likely to progressively acquire more and more ‘character’ until structural cracks and breaches become impossible to ignore.
Although it sounds like a big deal house levelling doesn’t have to be a major league drama. Depending on the nature and causes of the subsidence there are ways of levelling a house that are relatively gentle. For example in some situation it is possible to inject resins into the ground beneath the foundations that then mix, react with each other and expand to gently push a building back to the straight and level. Talk to Corpus Christi Foundation Repair about the different techniques suited for different situations and you’ll find that leveling doesn’t have to be such a big deal.
In some cases the experts at Corpus Christi Foundation Repair may find that the solution is to put reinforced resistance piers into the ground to give your foundations extra strength. That’s not a project to undertake without professionals, not least since there’s more than one way of underpinning a house’s foundations with piers. So talk to the experts at Corpus Christi Foundation Repair as soon as possible before matters get worse. And remember, the inspection is free so if it turns out you don’t need re-leveling then you’ve lost nothing.
