Foundation settlement: signs and repair options

Foundation settlement means part of a foundation has moved downward. It can cause uneven floors, sticking doors, or cracks, but those signs can have other causes too. An on-site assessment can help explain what is happening at your home.

Look at what has changed

Write down when you first noticed the changes and whether they affect one area or several rooms. How water drains around the house, the ground beneath it, and how the home is built can all help explain the problem.

Discuss the repair options

A professional may recommend watching for further changes, improving drainage, or adding structural support. When suitable, piers can carry the foundation’s weight to deeper supporting material. The recommendation should explain why that approach fits the cause of the settlement.
