Signs Your Home May Have Foundation Issues

Many homeowners don’t realize they have a foundation problem until visible damage appears. Here are some key warning signs:

​

🚨 Cracks in Walls, Ceilings, or Floors – May indicate foundation settling.
🚨 Uneven or Sloping Floors – A sign that the foundation is shifting.
🚨 Doors & Windows That Stick – Caused by misalignment from foundation movement.
🚨 Gaps Around Windows & Doors – A result of shifting foundation walls.
🚨 Water Damage Near the Foundation – Can lead to soil erosion and foundation instability.
🚨 Crawlspace or Basement Moisture Issues – A sign of structural weakness or drainage problems.

💡 Ignoring foundation issues can lead to major structural damage and expensive repairs. If you notice any of these signs, get a professional inspection today.

Types of Foundations in California

California homes have different types of foundations, each with unique challenges and repair needs:

​

🏠 Raised Foundations (Crawl Space)

• Built on piers and beams, allowing access to plumbing and electrical systems.

• Common issues: Wood rot, moisture problems, and unreinforced piers causing instability.

🏠 Concrete Slab Foundations

• A single layer of concrete poured directly on the ground, common in modern homes.

• Common issues: Cracks from soil movement, tree root intrusion, or water erosion.

🏠 Basement Foundations

• Less common in California but present in older homes or hillside properties.

• Common issues: Wall cracks, water intrusion, and shifting due to seismic activity.
