Diagnosing A Problem Basement

Most homeowners don’t regularly examine their basement walls, but scrutinizing the concrete blocks that form the foundation of your home can clue you in to signs that all is not as it should be.

Go to your basement, look around and take note of any of the following:

  • Bulging, cracking or crumbling
  • Walls that lean at the top
  • Evidence that walls are sliding inward at the bottom
  • Leaks and seepage

Standing water continuously soaking in the soil around your home is also a telltale sign that your foundation could be at risk.

Why Do Basement Walls Crumble?

Contractors build concrete foundations to withstand the test of time, but certain conditions can negatively affect your home’s stability. Homes built on poor-quality soil may sink over time. Excessive rain and standing water is also a risk factor; oversaturated soil puts pressure on your basement’s walls, forcing them inward, slowly eroding the concrete and causing the concrete to crack or even disintegrate.
