Street Creep Damage
Did you know concrete can expand over time? Thermal expansion and contraction causes concrete to shift over time, including on roadways. Street creep is when the expansion of the road and your driveway puts pressure on your foundation, causing damage to slabs and walls. Street creep will compress expansion joints, cause exterior foundation cracks, and create separation between the garage floor and walls.
This damage is a slow process that takes place as weather turns from season to season. However, when it does affect your home the damage can be severe. We repair street creep damage through a two-step process. First, we install new expansion joints that will create the space needed between your foundation and other slabs such as your driveway. Second, we will install wall anchors that will return the walls to their original condition and provide stabilization. Combined, these two elements will prevent future street creep damage to your home.

Tilting Chimney
If your chimney is tilting or separating from your home, you could have a major foundation issue. Chimney damage is a common sign of poor foundation soils, which can lead to sinking and settling of foundations. This process will cause your chimney to pull away from your home and can lead to additional problems such as a damage to foundation walls. Without the proper support, your chimney will eventually completely separate and fail.
Sometimes homeowners see a gap between the chimney and the house and choose to simply fill the space with caulk to waterproof it. However, this method ignores the root of the issue and can lead to more significant problems over time. In order to properly repair a tilting chimney, we install helical piers for additional support. These piers are screwed into strong supporting soils beneath the problem area, stabilizing your chimney and potentially returning it to its original position.
