Signs Your Home May Need Foundation Repair
Foundation problems often start small — but they won’t fix themselves. Common warning signs include:
Interior Signs
- Cracks in drywall (especially around windows and doors)
- Doors or windows that stick or won’t close properly
- Sloping or uneven floors
- Gaps between walls and ceiling or floor
- Bouncy or sagging floors (especially over crawl spaces)
Exterior Signs
- Stair-step cracks in brickwork or block walls
- Chimney pulling away from the house
- Cracks in foundation walls or slabs
- Separation between walls and roofline
- Water pooling near the foundation
Why Do Foundations Fail in Northwest Florida?
The Florida Panhandle presents unique challenges for homes due to our:
- Sandy and clay-rich soils that expand and contract with moisture changes
- Heavy rainfall and hurricanes that saturate the ground
- High water tables leading to hydrostatic pressure
- Poor drainage and improperly compacted soil
Our local team understands the coastal conditions and customizes every solution to the soil and environmental factors unique to your property.
