Rest assured, we provide industry-standard concrete installation service at a very reasonable price.
Signs of Foundation Problems
The signs of foundation problems can be deceptive. They tend to mimic conditions that are benign only to find out in the end that it's time for a foundation repair. That is why you need an expert concrete contractor to check and assess your home's foundation. To give you an idea, here are some of the major signs of foundation issues:
1. Exterior Wall Cracks
Large cracks that have a zig-zag pattern indicate that there's something wrong with your home's foundation. The same indication goes for brick cracks or protruding bricks from the wall.
2. Interior Sheetrock Cracks
Interior sheetrock cracks that are zig-zagging and almost the same height as the wall are a sign of a foundation problem.
3. Doors and Windows Separation from Brick Walls
A door or a window (or both) that's pulling away from the brick wall is a serious indication that you need foundation repair.
4. Uneven Floors
Having the gradient of your floor more than one or two inches per 15 feet is also a sign of a foundation issue.
5. Tile Cracks
Tile cracks are generally normal. But, if you see too many of them around your home, take it as a sign of a major foundation problem.
6. Bouncing Floors
If your floor feels like trampolines, call us. You need our professional expertise to handle the issue.
7. Expansion Joint Separation
A failing expansion joint can cause your home's foundation to fail. In the same way that a failing foundation can also cause expansion joints to fail, which causes widespread cracking.
8. Nails Popping Out of Drywall
A widespread popping of nails in the structure is a sign that you need a professional's help.
9. Walls Pulling Away from the Structure
This one's a serious problem. Once you notice the exterior wall pulling away from your house, call an expert right away. If not addressed immediately, it may cause the wall to collapse. It's major structural damage that costs a lot.
Concrete Foundation Repair and Installation Process
Knoxville Concrete Contractors Co is a premier concrete company in the Knoxville, TN area. We are known for providing high-quality work output at an affordable cost. To ensure quality end results, we follow the following processes for both our concrete repair and installation services:
On-Site Inspection
Our team visits on-site to check for any cracks, damages, or any signs of foundation problems. We also check for foundation settlement, which happens when the soil under the structure shifts. We make sure to look into every detail of your space so as not to miss anything. This repair process is crucial for us as we base our solutions depending on the foundation problems we see. Meanwhile, for concrete foundation installation, we assess the soil on the site. Not all soils are easy to deal with. Expansive soils or expansive clay soils, for instance, are problematic. Only experts like us can handle such concerns.
Recommendation
After evaluating your concrete surface, our team comes up with a list of recommendations. We base our endorsements on the best possible solutions available depending on the existing foundation problems. We also consider the latest trends in the concrete industry for the best quality of results. As for a new foundation, we always recommend having a crawl space. Crawl space is necessary to ensure proper ventilation throughout the property. It also provides easy access to electrical systems and plumbing when needed.
Preparation
Before addressing foundation issues or installing a new foundation, we make necessary preparations first. For concrete foundation installation, we prep up by making measurements and ensuring the project site is ready for pouring. The same process goes for repairs. We make sure existing concrete slabs are clean and if necessary we may recommend concrete resurfacing over replacement. Also, we ensure all construction materials we need are delivered on-site. Having all we need in place helps us save a lot of time and money.
Actual Foundation Repair or Installation
Only professional concrete specialists handle the actual foundation repair or installation process. That's how serious we are in providing you the highest quality of concrete work. A structural engineer ensures all foundation cracks and damages are addressed. In the same way, ensures the foundation wall is installed properly to avoid any foundation problem in the future. Also, we value the importance of starting and ending a project on time. Thus, our people see to it that we're always on track.
Quality Assurance
Before we turn over a concrete project, our team does a quality assurance check. We make sure we do not leave anything behind our checklist. We ensure all foundation issues are addressed. As for new installations, we see to it that they're sturdy enough to avoid foundation damage or foundation failure in the future. The QA process is our guarantee that every concrete project we do is of the highest quality possible.
