Our Services in Sugar Creek, MO

Foundation Repair
Foundation failure can be caused by a variety of soil-related and water issues. Some include:

• Soil erosion: After heavy rains or storms, the soil washes away and creates voids under the foundation.
• Soil shrinkage: Hot, dry weather conditions followed by saturated soil can cause soil shrinkage under the foundation. Also, maturing tree roots that are planted too close to the foundation can dehydrate the soil under the foundation.
• Poor soil compaction: Improperly compacted soil before a home is built can lead to settlement issues under the foundation.
• Hydrostatic pressure: When the soil absorbs too much water, the hydrostatic pressure increases in the soil. This pressure causes walls to bow and lean.

These conditions can lead to settlement over time. Look for the warning signs of foundation failure such as sloping floors, floor cracks, crumbling foundations, and garage foundation problems. If you notice any of these signs, give us a call immediately before the problem gets worse. We offer foundation repair methods by Earth Contact Products. Our products include helical piers and steel piers to stabilize your sinking foundation. These piers are driven deep into the soil to reach more suitable soil, then the structure is lifted onto these piers to bring it back to its original level.

Basement Waterproofing
If you have basement wall cracks, water could find its way into your home even through the smallest crack. This leads to flooded basements, causing water damage and expensive foundation repairs. That’s why it’s important to inspect your basement for signs of water damage. Some signs of water damage may include:

• Condensation on pipes
• Mold growth
• Wet floors
• Respiratory issues
• Standing water in the yard
