The Top Name for Structural Foundation in Barrington, IL

Are you confident that your home is safe and sound for your family? Maybe take a second look at some of the cracks you see on the ceiling and in the ceiling corners or doors that stick when you try to open them. Instead of just assuming the structural foundation in Barrington, IL, is fine, let Tolutions, Inc., inspect your home and discuss our findings.

Barrington has many older homes with natural stone or wood foundations. While they are susceptible to some types of damage, stone foundations are often strong and long-lasting. Modern homes usually have a concrete foundation. The company that built the homes can lay out the floorplan and pour the foundation long before they start building the house. If you aren't sure you need concrete foundation repair or another type, let us help.

Common Foundation Problems

A general contractor in Barrington, IL, can assist with any foundation issues you have. Sticking doors are just one sign of an issue. While humidity can cause doors to stick, the problem also happens when your foundation moves. This causes a misalignment in the door frame, which affects the way it sits inside the frame. When you try to open the door, it can stick to the frame. Similar issues happen with windows. You'll also want to look for uneven floors, sloped walls or floors, a leaning chimney, and cracks in the walls or foundation.

We Recommend Regular Foundation Inspection and Assessment

A good way to think about a foundation inspection is this serves as a great first step to  a preventive measure for your home. It lets us examine the sloped floors, cracked bricks, and other issues you noticed in the past. Once we get a better look at the damage, we’ll work with you on the next step. We'll recommend solutions that make your home safer and help you stay within your budget.

The Techniques We Use

One repair we offer for issues with structural foundations is steel piers. Also known as push piers, they add the support the home needs that the foundation lacks. We gain access to the space under your home and sink the piers into the ground. We can install new floor joists at the same time if needed. Slab jacking costs less, but it also doesn't last as long. In some cases, you'll need a better repair within 5 to 10 years. It's important to let us assess the situation and find the best remedy.
