If the problem is not severe, the wall can be reinforced with structural steel columns. Water problems are solved by excavation and sealing the walls or installing an interior drain tile system. We have a number of different repair methods that are customized to fit your particular problem. They range from interior drain tile installation to complete rebuilding of the foundation. In most cases buckled walls can be excavated, straightened and reinforced. Most water problems can be correct by simple routine maintenance. The most important item is keeping the soil around the foundation properly pitched to prevent water from pooling next to the walls. Concrete must also be inspected for proper pitch. Next, look at your gutters and downspouts. Keep all water flowing at least 6 feet from the foundation. Check the sump pump to insure proper working order. If the home is older, there is a palmer valve that drains the tile system, usually found in the floor drain. Keep trees 30 feet from walls to prevent pressure against the walls from growing in the drain tile.
