In Randolph we have straightened bowing walls, lifted settling foundations and sealed cracks since 1985, and every job comes with a free estimate and a transferable lifetime warranty.
Randolph Township sits on the heavy glacial clay that runs through southern Portage County, and that clay holds water and is slow to drain. When spring rain and snowmelt collect against your foundation, they build hydrostatic pressure that pushes on block walls day after day. Over the years that steady load leaves stair-step cracks along the mortar joints, a slow inward bow, or a wall that begins to lean. We have watched this same pattern play out on Randolph basements since 1985.
The clay under Randolph does more than hold water, it swells when it is wet and shrinks when it dries through summer. That seasonal push and pull works your foundation from both sides, and freeze-thaw over an Ohio winter only adds to it as the frozen ground expands against the walls. Poured corners can settle where the soil gives way, block walls answer with horizontal or diagonal cracking, and once movement starts it tends to widen a little more each year.
You often feel foundation trouble upstairs before you spot it in the basement. When a corner settles or a wall shifts, the frame above moves with it, and doors and windows on the main floor start to stick, drag, or leave gaps at the top. We have been the family-owned crew handling this for Randolph homeowners since 1985, and we look at the whole house, from the block in the basement to the sticking door on the second floor, before we recommend a fix.
The right fix depends on how far the wall has moved. For walls that are bowing or cracking, carbon-fiber straps and the Richtech Stabilizer System brace the wall and can straighten it back over time, all from inside the basement with no excavation.
When a corner or section of the house has settled, we underpin with steel piers driven down to stable soil to carry the load and lift the foundation back toward level. Cracks are sealed for good with epoxy and polyurethane injection. Every repair carries our transferable lifetime warranty.

We recently hired All American Basement Waterproofing to address some structural and moisture issues in our basement, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Mike and his team installed carbon fiber straps on one of our basement walls.

Those stair-step cracks come from the heavy clay soil around Randolph pressing against your block wall, especially after rain or snowmelt builds hydrostatic pressure. As the clay swells and shrinks with the seasons, the mortar joints give way in a stair-step line. We seal the cracks and, when the wall is moving, add carbon-fiber straps to hold it, all backed by our lifetime warranty.
They can. When a corner in Randolph settles because the clay under it shifted, we drive steel piers down to stable soil and use them to lift the foundation back toward level. It is a permanent fix that carries our transferable lifetime warranty, and we give you a free estimate before any work starts.
Sticking doors and windows upstairs are often a sign the foundation below has settled or shifted, which racks the frame around them. In Randolph we trace it back to the source, whether that is a settling corner or a bowing wall, and fix the foundation with steel piers or carbon-fiber straps so the frame settles back into place. Every repair is covered by our lifetime warranty.
A horizontal crack is the one to take seriously, since it usually means the clay and water pressure outside are bowing the wall inward. In Randolph we brace these walls from inside with carbon-fiber straps or the Richtech Stabilizer System to stop the movement and straighten the wall over time.
