Why House Foundations In East Texas Have So Many Issues
Your home’s foundation in Longview, TX is at a disadvantage from the day the concrete is poured.
The red clay soil in East Texas freezes in the winter and then thaws during the summer, causing the soil to shrink and expand. Some years we’ve seen as many as 9” of shrinkage and expansion.
That kind of movement is hard on foundations. In unfortunate situations, you may experience foundation problems, like cracks in your slab, piers, or beams. If left untreated, those cracks will get worse. Eventually, you’ll have some serious foundation problems on your hands.
As a local East Texas foundation repair company, we’re familiar with the common foundation problems in the area. We’re able to identify foundation problems early, before they cause a lot of damage.
If you think your home may have cracks in its foundation, contact us today for your consultation. We’ll make sure you understand your foundation’s health, even if it means you don’t need us.
Longview’s Foundation Repair Service Experts
Lone Star Foundation Repair is licensed to handle both slab leveling in Longview and pier and beam foundation repairs. These two types of foundations make up most homes in East Texas. East Texas soil tends to act on these foundations differently, which means they’ll manifest different problems.
Pier And Beam House Leveling in Longview, TX
If your home has a crawl space, then you have a pier and beam foundation. Pier and beam foundations have concrete piers that go deep into the soil. On top of those piers, or shafts, are cylinders on which the home sits.
In East Texas, pier and beam foundations are pretty stable, but they can still get cracks in them. Our pier and beam foundation leveling services can restore and protect your home.
If you need house leveling for your pier and beam house, contact us anytime.
Concrete Slab Foundation Repair in Longview
Concrete slab foundations are really common in East Texas. They tend to be a little cheaper than pier and beam, but they’re also prone to more long-term problems because of the soil. They’ll frequently develop cracks in them because of the ground shifting. Sometimes those cracks can become a serious foundation problem.
If you need concrete foundation repair or slab concrete leveling services, we’re here to help.
House Leveling In Longview
Occasionally in East Texas, a home can come unlevel because the ground has shifted--sometimes permanently. If doors or windows in your home are stuck open or closed, there’s a chance your home may need to be leveled. Leveling your home can often prevent more serious foundation problems down the road.
5 Signs You Need Foundation Repairs
Diagonal Cracks On Interior Walls
Diagonal cracks on interior walls are one of the telltale signs of foundation problems. As the house begins to move it causes stress on the walls and weaker areas, like around doors and windows, will shear and crack.
Cracks in Exterior Brick Grout
If you notice foundational cracks in the grout of your bricks, you may need to call us for an inspection. These cracks will resemble stairs and, like the diagonal cracks on your interior walls, happen because one side of the house is pulling down and away.
Doors Won’t Open Or Close
If you notice doors or windows sticking closed or open, you should have a foundation company inspect your home. Foundation problems will pull doors and windows off square. Windows will be stuck open or closed.
Exterior Trim Pulling Away
If the wood trim on your home’s exterior begins to separate from the rest of your home, you have a foundation problem. When a house shifts substantially, the trim will pull away from the home as walls become less level and less square.
Interior Fixtures/Trim Coming Off
Similar to the exterior trim, fixtures like bookcases, cabinets, and chair rails will also peel away from the wall. As the home’s walls begin to pull off square, the walls will shift and trim and fixtures will separate and pull out nails and screws.
