Signs and Causes
Though it’s normal to check your home for signs of damage after a major storm strikes, a busy life can undervalue the importance of routine home inspection. By paying attention to the warning signs, homeowners have the ability to detect foundation damage in its earliest stages in order to correct problems before the damage has the chance to spread.
What should you be on the lookout for? Fortunately there are many foundation damage signs that you can spot if you take the time to notice them. Be mindful of cracks, especially cracks around door frames, horizontal cracks, wide cracks, and an abundance of cracks in one area or throughout the home. Difficulty opening doors and windows, warped or slanted floors, and water intrusion are all signs that also point to foundation damage.
When it comes to understanding the underlying causes of foundation damage, soil and water are almost always the culprits. In addition to the impact of severe weather, flooding, soil erosion or changes in the soil condition can greatly upset the stability of a home. Soil expands with an abundance of water and contracts when it is in short supply, which can lead to an unstable foundation and structural cracks, wreaking havoc on a home’s stability.
Other causes of foundation damage can be linked to structural damage, intrusive nature growth, plumbing leaks, and drainage system failure. In order to solve foundation problems right the first time and prevent further issues down the line, Atlas Shoring & Home Elevation always uncovers the source of the foundation damage in order to permanently resolve the issue.

Step by Step Repair Process
While each home lifting, shoring, elevation, or foundation repair project presents its own unique set of factors to take into consideration when sculpting a custom solution, the same general foundation repair process applies in many cases. If your home needs to be lifted, your foundation is deteriorating, your home is becoming unlevel, or damage is on the rise, there are steps we can take to correct the structural stability of your home and ensure for the safety of all occupants.
Shoring – First, we prepare for the home to be raised by inserting jacks and beams underneath the structure.
Detaching the Home – Next, the home must be detached from its foundation. To minimize the damage to the home’s interior, we raise the jacks slowly and at an even pace.
New Support Installation – The new installation is now installed in the form of mudsill, girder beams, posts, and piers. This process will allow the home to regain an even floor level.
Final Touches –Finally to complete the project, the temporary shoring is removed and the leveled and reinforced structure is connected back to the foundation. Now the building will be both stable and leveled.
