How do I find a qualified foundation repair company in Sherwood Park?

The best approach to find a qualified foundation repair contractor is to confirm their expertise in their trade’s, and the locations they have served. Understanding the unique soil types, neighborhood, local home-builders, and foundation-related building practices in Sherwood Park will translate to their knowledge about your foundation repair project, and your home’s foundation in general. 

It’s often the case that neighborhoods are built by a small number of homebuilders, and unfortunately, sometimes certain homebuilders fail to maintain best-practice standards. These mistakes typically result in foundation deficiencies such as clogged weeping tile, failing drainage, shifting/settlement, and other issues that can result in costly foundation repairs to homeowners.

You’ll want to choose a foundation repair company that has seen a range of basement foundation issues in Sherwood Park. This will help in achieving the correct identification of the root cause of your foundation issue. Choosing a company that has a good understanding of your neighborhood’s unique issues will save you time and money, and prevent unnecessary steps when trying to diagnose and solve your water seepage problems.

What kinds of foundation repair problems are common in Sherwood Park?

Sherwood Park has a number of common problems that plague foundations of residential homes and commercial buildings: The most common being shifting/settlement issues of newer neighborhoods built on old-house locations, and built on loose “fill” material which is prone to settlement. Another common issue is plugged or clogged weeping tile, caused by “silty” or “sandy” soil types, again usually caused by the home being built on in-fill material.

Another common concern with Sherwood Park foundations is properties with too many large trees too close to the foundation. Although beautiful, these large trees roots tend to reach around the foundation, sucking moisture away and causing certain areas to dry-up, resulting in soil movement in specific areas.
