Foundation Repair in Maple Heights, OH

There's a crack running sideways along the mortar in my Maple Heights basement. How serious is it?

A horizontal crack in a block wall usually means soil is pushing the wall in. It's a sign to have it measured soon, before the movement grows. Straps or the Richtech system can stop it.

Our Maple Heights garage floor has sunk near the door. Can that be repaired?

It depends on what's under it. A garage slab or footing that has settled on soft soil can often be supported. We'll inspect it and tell you what makes sense for that spot.

My Maple Heights basement wall leans in at the top. Can it be straightened?

Often it can. The Richtech Stabilizer System braces the wall from inside and lets us straighten it gradually over time. If the lean is slight, carbon-fiber straps may be enough to hold it where it is.

Is a vertical crack in a Maple Heights poured wall a structural problem?

Many vertical cracks in poured walls come from shrinkage as the concrete cured and aren't structural. If the crack leaks, widens or the sides don't line up, it needs a closer look. Leaking cracks can be injected.

We keep patching the same crack in our Maple Heights foundation. Why won't it stay fixed?

A patch covers the crack but can't stop the wall from moving. If the soil keeps pushing, the crack reopens. Stabilizing the wall first, then sealing the crack, is what keeps it closed.

Doors started sticking in our Maple Heights house this year. Should I check the foundation?

It's worth a look. Sticking doors and new drywall cracks can come from humidity, but they can also mean part of the house has settled. We'll check the foundation and tell you what we find.

Will foundation work make a mess of my Maple Heights basement?

Straps and braces go on the inside face of the wall, so we need clear access along it. We protect the area and clean up when we're done. You'll know ahead of time what needs to be moved.
