foundation repair
Fixing building base
Foundation repair is the process of fixing structural damage to a building's foundation—the concrete, stone, or masonry base that supports the entire structure.
Methods include underpinning, crack injection, and pier installation.
Signs that foundation repair may be needed include cracked walls, uneven floors, and doors that won't close properly.
The contractor said foundation repair would cost twenty thousand dollars.
