Cracked Wall or Bowing Walls
This one is pretty obvious. When a foundation settles it can cause walls, which are brittle and not meant to bend, to crack and break. If you see a crack forming on your wall, contact us right away.
Strange Smells
If you smell a musty or odd smell coming from somewhere in the home and you just can’t find the source, it’s possible you need foundation crack repair in Newton MA. Air can seep through places it was never meant to travel and come up into your home, leaving a bad smell behind.
Uneven Doorways
It is a staple in most homes that door-frames are rectangular-shaped at 90-degree angles. If you notice that your doorway is no longer squared off, or that your door isn’t fitting into the door-frame quite like it used to, you may have a crack in your foundation.
