Foundation Repair in Knoxville, TN

Leaving uneven floors or sticking doors and windows to fester will only result in a more costly repair down the road.

The AFS Repair Process
Foundation Problem Signs in Knoxville, TN
Your Knoxville foundation problems are likely easy to recognize just by looking around your home. From settlement sinking, foundation heave, a sagging crawl space, or wall cracks, these red flags are an indication of foundation problems. Your foundation problems could be symptoms of a larger problem; it’s best to have the trained professionals at AFS Foundation & Waterproofing Specialists set their sights on the problem with a free, no-obligation inspection.
Causes of Foundation Damage in Knoxville
The cause of the problems at your Knoxville home is most likely out of your control, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t ways you can put an end to the damage.
Knoxville’s weather and soil are most likely to blame for the common foundation problems at your home. Although environmental factors are frustrating, understanding why you see problems is a step in the right direction. Knoxville receives about 50 inches of rain a year, which is well above the national average. Combine the heavy precipitation with the areas loam and sandy loam soil, and the ground supporting your home can easily become unstable. As a result, it’s not uncommon for the soil beneath your home to wash out, causing settlement.
Foundation Repair Solutions in Knoxville
Depending on your home’s foundation type, the degree of damage, and the time you’ve noticed the problem, the right solution may be simple or a bit more complex. For homes that are sinking, AFS uses a piering system to stabilize and potentially lift your home back to a level position. Bowing basement walls are repaired with either carbon fiber straps, wall braces, or wall anchors, depending on the extent of the damage. While sagging floors in a crawl space are repaired with crawl space supports. Regardless of the suggested repair, our products are made in America and come with a long-term, nationally backed warranty.

Your home’s stability depends on the foundation of your home. Ignoring your foundation problem and choosing other home improvements instead could cause additional work in the future.
