Description

Contractors performing foundation repairs can significantly improve customer service by providing basic information about the causes of foundation problems. This booklet shows how to protect your home or building by controlling fluctuating moisture levels around its foundation. Water effects the stability of soil under the structure and foundation problems will reoccur if water is not controlled. Informing consumers about methods that achieve long-lasting foundation problem resolution is the driving force behind this publication. Homeowners must insist that root causes of foundation problems are identified and addressed in the work to be performed before authorizing repairs. The additional cost of drainage work will be well worth the investment by preventing even greater future foundation work expenses. This is not a do-it-yourself drainage instruction manual, but rather adequate guidance for readers to become better evaluators, and purchasers, of professional proposals aimed at addressing their foundation problems.
