We’re Ready to Work On Your Structural Foundation in Schaumburg, IL

Your home could not exist without a solid foundation. Once it begins failing, you'll see cracks around the inside of your house and other signs that will only get worse. At Tolutions, Inc., we provide residential foundation repair for all types of homes. Whether you live in a new home with a poured structural foundation in Schaumburg, IL, or an older home with a brick foundation, find out more about what we can do.

Importance of Regular Foundation Inspection and Assessment

No matter how much experience you have, don't think you can walk around your house and see what the building foundation needs. It takes a trained and professional eye to inspect and assess the damage, both of which you get with us. We will be honest with you about the severity of the damage along with what you need to do as soon as possible. Every type of foundation in the area could benefit from a detailed foundation inspection and assessment.

Common Foundation Problems

If you have a crawlspace and think you might have a problem with your structural foundation, we recommend that you check the crawlspace for any signs of moisture. Excess moisture is a sign that the foundation is exposed to the elements and allows rain and snow to seep inside. We recommend checking for these signs:

  • Floors in one or more rooms that are uneven
  • Sticking doors or doors that won't stay closed
  • Gaps in your trim pieces outside
  • Ceiling and wall cracks
  • Floors that bounce when you walk on them

Types of Foundations We Work On

Looking around your house is a good way to see what type of structural foundation in Schaumburg, IL, you have. We see a lot of slab foundations in the area. This type has a large concrete pad that supports the house and anything inside it. Crawlspace foundations are also common. You'll know you have this type if you have access under your home. You may also have a home with a basement, a poured concrete foundation, or a raft foundation.

Foundation Repairs We Offer

We often use slab jacking as a concrete foundation repair technique. The process allows us to lift a section of the foundation to take pressure off the slab. This type of repair lasts for up to 20 years. Using piers involves a similar process, but the benefit is that the piers can last for the entire life of your home. Though piers are more expensive, you can work with us to choose the best ones for your home. You can choose from helical, spot, or steel piers. In some cases, shimming or using a special foam can prevent further foundation damage.
