Foundation Repair in Northern North Carolina

Your Northern North Carolina house is only as strong and stable as the foundation it was built upon. If your foundation has sustained damage such as cracks and settlement, the rest of your home will be at risk for damage as well. That is why regular inspections and repair with long-lasting solutions are important. 

Our experts at Tar Heel Basement Systems can help you. For 20 years, we have been helping homeowners throughout Northern North Carolina inspect, repair, maintain, and protect their homes and their foundations. Our service and solutions are award-winning and locally and nationally recognized as the best in the business. You can benefit from our assistance, as well.

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.

Devin arrived on time (1200 noon) just like he said would. I was pleasantly surprised that the inspection included inside and around the outside of the home, as well as the crawl space. I'm glad that no major issues were found . I was impressed with his level of professionalism, as he went as far as to literally record his findings into a slide presentation. He even went as far as to seal around the door to the crawl space in an effort to ensure the possibility of water no longer pooling by the door. I'm very pleased that the encapsulation done by Tarheel Basement Systems is still holding firm. Devin showed me what Tarheel Basement Systems can do for me regarding insulation. Though I'm not ready to make this move now, Devin has given something me to think about.

The guys just wrapped up at my house today. Tylor, Andrew and Stephen did a great job. They were prompt, communicated well and were happy to answer all of my questions. Corey was quick to come out and get a plan of action, which was much appreciated. With remodeling my home I’ve found it’s rare to have a great crew that executes as planned, arrives when scheduled, and leaves things cleaner than when they started. Tar Heel has just that. As a whole they have been a pleasure to work with and I have no complaints. Excited to have peace of mind when it comes to my basement.

We contacted Tarheel Basement Systems because, despite the fact that our home in Stokesdale was only 2 years old, it had a musty smell and shockingly we were beginning to see some mold spots on and around vents and in closets, including clothes. They sent out a representative (Harlan) promptly, on a Saturday, who inspected the crawl space, took readings of humidity in the wood and the insulation and overall air, took schematics of the crawl space, and plenty of pictures. He discussed the cost and options with us, taking his time, including financing options. He was extremely thorough, and we agreed on the scope of the work and cost. They initiated the project, with Jacob C and Terrence A arriving at our home early in the morning. Jacob and Terrence were extremely courteous and professional, dropped off some initial documentation, and got to work. I did not have to be home but was able to work from home for the duration of their visit and I can tell you that they worked hard for two days beginning early in the day until late afternoon. Other than leaving for home after Day 1, they did not leave the site and took minimal break time during the entire duration of their stay. Peeking out from time-to-time they took their time cutting the materials to size, and when the project was over recapped with me what they had done. My wife and I are extremely appreciative of Jacob C, Terrence A, Harlan, and the entire team at Tar Heel Basement Systems and would not hesitate to enlist them again!
