“Is my foundation crumbling?” is one of the unsettling questions that many homeowners ask whenever they notice a sudden crack on their wall or a door that refuses to shut. Unfortunately, the answer to this common question is possibly a yes. People often assume their homes’ foundations are constructed to perfection and that nothing could ever go wrong. Sadly, that is never the case.

The crumbling foundation came to be by a company mixing in a mineral called pyrrhotite into their concrete.  The pyrrhotite then causes a deterioration of the concrete when exposed to oxygen and water.  The first signs that a home is affected would be a visual of horizontal or web cracking in the concrete walls.  This process can take anywhere from 10 to 30 years before any evidence is visible.

Unchecked foundations cause serious long-term problems for home owners. If your foundation is cracked or worse, you probably know already that you need a skilled foundation repair company you can trust with the job—Grondin Builders!
