    and brick appear.

  • Floors settle.

Q: What causes foundation problems?

Foundation damage is typically caused by:

  • Water damage or erosion

  • Tree roots

  • Soil expansion and contraction

  • Improper site preparation before building.

Q: Will installing piers prevent the sale of my home?

No. In our experience doesn’t affect the homeowner's ability to sell the home. In fact, we would argue that piering installed by a reputable company such as Crown Foundation & Concrete Lifting should be attractive to home buyers, as it signals that necessary work has already been done and future repairs are unlikely.
