Foundation Repair in Medina, OH

Can you fix a bowing basement wall in Medina without digging up my yard?

Yes. For most bowing walls in Medina we work entirely from inside with carbon-fiber straps or the Richtech Stabilizer System, which brace the wall and can pull it back over time. There is no excavation and no tearing up your landscaping, and the repair is backed by our transferable lifetime warranty.

What causes the stair-step cracks in my Medina home's block foundation?

Those stair-step cracks come from the heavy clay soil under Medina swelling and shrinking with the seasons and pushing on the block. The pressure follows the mortar joints, which is why the cracks climb in a stair pattern. We seal them with epoxy or polyurethane injection and stabilize the wall so the movement stops.

One corner of my Medina foundation is settling and sinking. Can you lift it?

We can. A settling corner in Medina usually means the soil under that footing has given way. We drive steel piers down to stable soil below, then use them to lift and hold the corner back in place. The work is covered by our transferable lifetime warranty.

Why do my upstairs doors and windows stick in my Medina house?

Sticking doors and windows upstairs are often a sign the foundation below is moving or settling, which twists the frame just enough to bind. In Medina that movement usually traces back to clay soil and hydrostatic pressure on the walls. We find the cause downstairs and stabilize the foundation so the frames sit square again.

Is a horizontal crack in my Medina basement wall something serious?

A horizontal crack is one to take seriously, since it often means the wall is bowing under soil pressure and points to more than normal curing or shrinking. In Medina we see this with block walls after wet springs. We can brace the wall from inside with carbon-fiber straps or the Richtech Stabilizer System and back it with our lifetime warranty.
