Get Your House "Back to Normal" This Summer

 

 Get Summer Ready with DryZone

During these times, we all want to just get things back to normal with our old routine. But what if your home needs a little help to get “back to normal” because of foundation, basement, concrete, or crawlspace issues? 

Here are 6 things to look for around your home to see if you need a little help from us!

 

  1. Do you have a concrete driveway or sidewalks around your home? Check for cracks, sinking and uneven areas, pitting, flaking and deterioration. If you have any of these problems and they can cause a tripping hazard, take care of them now, before they get worse!
  2. If you have a chimney, check to see if there are any visible stair-step cracks or the start of separation from the home. As your home continues to settle further, these cracks may widen!
  3. Do you feel sloping or sagging floors in your home? Any floor “bounce”? You may need more support under your home. Find out by scheduling an appointment with us!
  4. Do you see any cracks in the walls at the corners of doors or windows? Are your doors or windows out of square or pulling away from the frame or exterior finish?
  5. Open your crawlspace door; do you have a damp, musty odor coming from it? Can you see any water on the ground? You may need to encapsulate your space!
  6. If you have a basement, do you notice any dampness or water leakage coming from the window areas or walls? Do you notice any cracks on the walls? 

If you have any of these problems, it’s time to fix them now instead of later! Preventing worse damage will not only give you peace of mind, but it will also save you money in the long run!
