Your Northern North Carolina house is only as strong and stable as the foundation it was built upon.

Foundation Problems in Northern North Carolina

When your foundation is damaged, you will easily be able to spot various problem signs throughout your Northern North Carolina home. Keep an eye out for wall cracks, floor cracks, drywall nail pops, cracked bricks, cracking and leaning chimneys, bowing basement walls, uneven floors, and sticking windows and doors. Don’t panic when you see these red flags, but take note and contact Tar Heel right away to schedule a free inspection. If these issues continue, they will get worse, become more dangerous for your family to be around, and cost more to fix in the long run. 

Causes of Foundation Damage in Northern North Carolina

Most causes behind your foundation problems stem from outside forces, namely Northern North Carolina’s weather and soil conditions. The soil throughout the area is varied and includes rocky types as well as expansive clay like Cecil soil. These soils often cannot handle the copious amounts of precipitation northern and mountainous locations receive, and they can become wet and soft, allowing the foundation to settle into the unstable soil. The soil also can wash away with heavy rain, as well as shrink during particularly dry periods. When voids form due to shrinking or tree root movement, the foundation also can sink into them. Excessive hydrostatic pressure created by overly saturated expansive soil also results in cracking, inwardly moving walls. 

Foundation Repair Solutions in Northern North Carolina

Foundation repair is specific to each Northern North Carolina home and its foundation. That is why we offer a variety of foundation repair solutions to address several issues faced by homes in the area. To address foundation settlement by permanently stabilizing and potentially lifting the foundation, we will use pier systems such as helical piers, push piers, or slab piers. Crawl space supports function similarly to reinforce and help lift sagging floors and floor joists. Cracking and bowing walls will benefit from carbon fiber supports, specialized wall beams, or wall anchors. All these American-made solutions are customizable and backed by long-lasting warranties.

Why Choose Tar Heel Basement Systems?

Your foundation is what supports your entire Northern North Carolina home and everything and everyone in it, so it must be safe and structurally sound. Problems like cracks, settling, and unevenness can threaten your home and family, so put a stop to them before severe damage ensues. 

Trust in the expertise and nationally recognized solutions our team at Tar Heel Basement Systems has to offer. That is what thousands of local homeowners have done for 20 years.

I talked with 3 companies regarding a moisture/mold problem in my basement and was most impressed with Tar Heel Basements. The initial inspector was thorough and knowledgeable, spending more time checking my foundation both inside and out than Tar Heel's competitors. He answered a lot of questions and assisted with the interest free financing. It was an expensive repair that I was very stressed about, but Tar Heel made it as easy as possible. Once the scheduled week arrived, the technicians provided advanced notice of arrival each day, and showed up on time or early. They kept me informed throughout the process and answered numerous questions. They hung plastic to protect my belongings from the dust and advised regarding their findings (such as termites) as they removed walls and insulation. They coordinated with the electricians for installing power to the sump pump and made sure they cleaned up. Tar Heel kept everything clean and even mopped my floor once the work was completed. I'm very appreciative of Nathan Griffin, Zac Mathis, and James Passmore for their hard work, and the care and consideration they provided while working in my home.

I have used Tar Heel Basement Systems on three different occasions and found them to do excellent work. Recently I had my existing sump pump replaced with a dual pump with a battery back up. Austin Moody and Chris Perdomo did a beautiful install and explained the operation to me. They even hauled off an old pump for me.
