"We contracted with Foundation Support Specialists (Groundworks) to repair our 1985 driveway which had several cracks and sections that had sunk or receded by up to 3 inches. Patrick made the inspection and explained very well what they could do to raise the sections and how the project could be financed with a 5 year guarantee. David Sanchez and his partner Karl arrived on the appointed day and began work by drilling holes in the concrete and then injecting polyurethane to raise the driveway sections to be level. They then filled the cracks and joints with a rubber sealant as well as the drill holes. They also leveled the adjoining sidewalk in the same way. David returned in 2 days to adjust one small section of the sidewalk and overlay the sealant with more of the same material and smooth over the sealant so it was level with the driveway surface. Both David and Karl did an excellent job and explained very well what they would do to correct the problems. David also did an excellent job on finishing the sealant on the second day. We highly recommend their professional work and thoughtful aesthetics. We are completely satisfied with the end result. Their supervisor Kazvin also followed up by phone to be sure we were satisfied with the work. Thanks"

Common Causes of your Crawl Space Problems in Forney

Moisture and Humidity

Excess moisture in your crawl space can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage over time.

Groundwater Seepage

Poor drainage or leaking pipes can lead to standing water in your crawl space, potentially causing mold growth and compromising structural integrity.

Poor Ventilation

Open vents in your crawl space allow humid air to enter, leading to condensation, mold, and long-term moisture damage.

Pest Infestations

Damp or unsealed crawl spaces create an inviting environment for rodents, termites, and other pests, leading to structural damage and contamination.

Soil Settlement

Shifting soil beneath your home can lead to foundation settlement, causing sagging floors and damage to crawl space supports.

Foundation Cracks

Cracks in crawl space foundation walls allow water, pests, and unconditioned air to enter, causing moisture and structural issues.

High Energy Bills

Poorly sealed or damaged crawl spaces can increase heating and cooling costs due to energy loss.

Stack Effect

Damage in your crawl space allows mold and odors to spread into your home. Repairing the crawl space prevents this, improving your air quality and living environment.

Climate Conditions

Heavy rains or drought can shift the soil beneath your home, leading to sagging floors or structural damage in your crawl space. Repairing these issues restores stability and protects your home from further problems.
