Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I delay foundation work?

If you don’t complete the work in time, existing structural issues may worsen and result in permanent damage to your home. Delaying crucial interventions such as lifting, stabilizing, or replacing a foundation can also lead to much higher long-term costs.

Key risks of postponing structural work include:

  • Progressive settlement: worsening cracks, warped walls, and sagging floors.
  • Water infiltration: weakened foundations become more prone to moisture penetration.
  • Loss of structural integrity: safety may be compromised, with risk of partial collapse in extreme cases.
  • Increased repair costs: secondary damage often requires more extensive and costly interventions.
  • Reduced property value: homes with visible structural issues are harder to sell and lose market appeal.
