Signs You May Need a Foundation Wall Rebuild
Foundation wall failure often worsens over time, especially in West Michigan where freeze-thaw cycles, clay-heavy soils, and groundwater pressure are common. You may need a foundation wall rebuild if you’re noticing:
- Severe horizontal or stair-step cracks
- Bowing, leaning, or bulging basement walls
- Crumbling concrete or failing block walls
- Ongoing water damage weakening the wall structure
- Structural failure caused by soil pressure or aging materials
If these issues are present, repairs alone may not provide a lasting solution. Left unaddressed, foundation wall problems can impact your home’s safety, value, and resale potential.
Our Foundation Wall Rebuild Process
We take a careful, engineered approach to ensure your wall rebuild delivers lasting results and peace of mind.
Thorough Inspection
We begin with a detailed inspection of your foundation, evaluating wall damage, soil conditions, and the overall structural impact on your home.
Safe Excavation
The affected area will be temporarily supported and is excavated to fully expose the damaged foundation wall.
Wall Removal & Rebuild
The compromised wall is removed and professionally rebuilt using high-quality concrete or masonry materials designed for strength, durability, and long-term performance.
Waterproofing & Drainage
(If Needed)
We can incorporate waterproofing systems and drainage solutions to help prevent future moisture intrusion and soil pressure issues, especially important for homes in the Greater Grand Rapids area.
Backfill & Final Inspection
Tar is applied to the exterior foundation wall, soil is backfilled, and the rebuilt wall undergoes a final inspection to ensure quality, stability, and performance.
