What Sloping & Uneven Floors Mean for You
Sloping & uneven floors can be challenging to spot. One way to tell is by taking a ball and rolling it on your hardwood. If it rolls in a downward trajectory, then the foundation of your home is the problem. It is just one of the many issues that may arise.
Foundation Repair
POSSIBLE CAUSES OF UNEVEN FLOORS
When there is a downward movement of a structure or building, then you have a foundation settlement. Soil can move, shift, or compact because of a multitude of problems such as:
Soils that can’t hold up – Soil underneath and around your home cannot support the house’s structure.
Poorly compacted soils – If the soil fill wasn’t correctly compacted when the business or home was built, this could lead to a compression.
A change in the moisture level – An excess of water surrounding and under the foundation puts pressure on the walls of the foundation. If there is too little moisture, it leads to soil shrinkage and insufficient support for the foundation.
Solid consolidation – The structure’s weight may compress, and soil fill may consolidate, leading to the structure above having a downward movement.
