When is the Best Time of Year for Foundation Repair?

Let’s cover the four seasons and what happens each season to potentially affect the foundation of your home and at the end we will reveal exactly WHEN you should get work done.

1) SPRING - When Spring comes, so does the rain. This is when foundation issues are the most apparent. Heavy rain can cause new cracking or make existing cracks even more noticeable. Water damage can be a real drag. Everyone gets into “Spring Cleaning” mode and they tend to see damage that they may not have noticed before. This is the busiest time of the year for home repair and home improvement projects.

2) SUMMER - When Summer comes, so does the heat and often droughts. Dry air causes water to evaporate and this change can cause cracking. The lack of sufficient moisture in the soil can cause your house to show signs of sinking and settlement, which can become worse as the seasons advance.

3) FALL - When Fall comes, the weather tends to get cooler and occasionally damp. The problems caused during the heat of the summer become more noticeable in Fall when condensation increases.

4) WINTER - In the Winter the ground tends to be considerably colder than the rest of the year. Many people think it’s too cold to work on foundation repairs, but that would not be true. Winter foundation repair is perfectly fine with the proper knowledge, technique and the right equipment.

The answer for the BEST time of year to conduct foundation repair is NOW. Every single season is sufficient to get the work done, if you hire a contractor, like us, who knows what they are doing.

If you notice signs of foundation problems, settlement, sinking or damage - DO NOT wait for the problem to get worse or for the season to change.

WHY NOW? The longer you wait, the more expensive the problem can become, the more damage can occur and the more your home loses value.
