The soil around your foundation expands and contracts with the changing weather. This constant change in moisture and density in the soil can put up to 1000 pounds of pressure on your basement walls.
The average home weighs around 160 tons. This, in conjunction with the changing soils that support the foundation of your home can cause your foundation to settle, slabs to crack and foundation walls to bow over time.
Cracks in foundation walls, tilted chimneys, basement slab cracks, or sticking doors and windows are some of the symptoms of foundation problems. If you live in Greater Memphis, including nearby Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi areas, don't let a small foundation problem turn into big structural damage.
