Seasonal weather change is the most common cause of foundation movement. During the wet months of winter soil expands and rises. During the dryer months of summer soil shrinks and settles. The moisture changes may cause the foundation to move.
|
 |
Poor water drainage is another common cause of foundation movement. Water should be diverted away from the home to minimize foundation movement.
|
|
Plumbing may also cause of foundation movement. Certainly, all plumbing or sprinkler leaks must be repaired prior to the foundation repair.
|
|
Tree Roots and Poor Foundation Construction are additional causes of foundation movement. Trees should be planted a greater distance than their mature height from the foundation.
