Common Signs of Foundation Issues
Cracks in Walls or Floors
Horizontal, vertical, or diagonal cracks in interior or exterior walls, ceilings, or flooring may indicate shifting or settling.
Stair-step cracks in brick or masonry walls are a particular concern.
Doors and Windows Misalignment
Doors and windows that stick, don’t latch properly, or have uneven gaps around the frame could signal foundation movement.
Uneven or Sloping Floors
Floors that sag, dip, or have noticeable slopes are often caused by foundation settling or structural weakening.
Gaps Between Walls and Ceilings or Floors
If you notice spaces forming between walls and ceilings or baseboards pulling away, your foundation may be shifting.

Water Infiltration or Moisture Issues
Persistent water pooling around your foundation or dampness in the basement can weaken the foundation and lead to issues like mold growth.
Chimney Leaning or Cracks
A tilting chimney or cracks in its structure may result from uneven foundation settling.
Bowing or Bulging Walls
Walls that curve inward or outward are often a sign of excessive pressure on the foundation.
Separation of Exterior Structures
Gaps forming between the foundation and attached structures, like porches or garages, indicate movement.
Persistent Plumbing Issues
Unexplained leaks, slow drains, or frequent plumbing issues may result from foundation shifts damaging pipes.
What Causes
