Foundation Repair FAQ for Winston-Salem Homeowners

How often should Winston-Salem homeowners get foundation repair?
Given Winston-Salem's hot, humid summers averaging 87°f with frequent afternoon thunderstorms, most homeowners benefit from foundation repair at least once a year. Red clay stain removal from driveways, siding, and walkways often makes spring or fall the optimal time to schedule service.
What home types in Winston-Salem most need foundation repair?
Brick ranch homes throughout Forsyth County and Victorian and Craftsman homes in Ardmore, West End, and Reynolda are the most common home types in Winston-Salem and typically see the most wear. Our local pros are familiar with the exterior materials found across the metro.
Are all foundation cracks serious?
Not all cracks are structural. Hairline cracks in block or poured walls from normal curing are common. Horizontal cracks in block walls, stair-step cracks, and cracks over 1/4 inch wide are more serious and warrant professional evaluation.
How do I know if my foundation is failing?
Warning signs: doors and windows that stick or won't close, sloping floors, diagonal cracks from window corners, cracks wider than 1/4 inch, and horizontal cracks in basement walls.
Can a foundation be repaired or does it need to be replaced?
Foundation repair — not replacement — is almost always the solution. Replacement is extremely rare and prohibitively expensive. Piers, anchors, and drainage correction resolve the vast majority of issues.
Do I need to disclose foundation repairs when selling?
Yes. Known foundation issues and past repairs must be disclosed in most states. A repaired foundation with a transferable warranty is often less concerning to buyers than an untouched failing foundation.
