Basement and Crawlspace Waterproofing and Foundation Repair Experts in Baltimore
MHIC #135327
The idea of building a house on a foundation started centuries ago. Structures built in ancient times were situated on piers to raise it above the wet and to protect the inhabitants from animals and hostile enemies. Later, the Romans used concrete as foundations for their buildings, many of which still stand today. In more recent times, we have come to think of foundations as the bases for any building, and we understand that without a solid foundation, the building won’t last.
There are several types of foundations, each with its pros and cons. One common trait, however, is that they are prone to shift, causing cracks and allowing moisture into a home. Within the building industry, experts have devised ways to protect homes by restoring their foundations with structural support and waterproofing methods.
Crawlspace and foundation problems plague many Baltimore households. From leaks and condensation to cracks that invite rodents and insects, homeowners should address foundation concerns promptly to avoid costly damage.
DIY solutions aren’t appropriate in these cases. Instead, a homeowner should contact a reliable home contractor with the necessary skills to deal with various problems.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
When a building has a foundation problem, whether minor or more severe, it is essential to contact a professional like those at Accurate Builders of the Chesapeake. The foundation is the only thing standing between a building remaining upright. Even if there are only a few cracks or the start of a sloping floor, it must be taken care of. Any delay means that a building’s condition deteriorates, and the more it deteriorates, the more unstable it becomes. Foundation problems are nothing to ignore, and they’re something to address upfront.
-
All foundation issues should be taken seriously. What may look small can indicate a huge problem that needs to be taken care of immediately. If a home’s foundation is settling and affecting the structure, the homeowners will likely see wall cracks, bowing walls, sloping floors, and sticking doors or windows. Luckily, we have several services that can address these issues and ensure they don’t return.
-
Typically, unless the damage is extreme, foundation repair often takes two to three days. If a home has severe damage that requires extra work, it may take longer. For example, if we have to install deeper footings, excavate deeper, or restore other parts of the home following the installation of piers.
-
If a homeowner ignores their foundation damage, they may face severe failure and even lose the home to the damage so that foundation repair will save money. Also, if a house is experiencing foundation damage in the form of wall cracks or basement or crawl space leaks, there are weak points that let the outside elements in. With these weaknesses, heating and cooling bills increase, along with added maintenance to the areas that need help. Accurate Builders of the Chesapeake seals a home so homeowners save money on their monthly energy bills.
-
Depending on the kind of foundation repair needed, it may be necessary to remove any bushes or shrubs in the way. However, this is done carefully after advising our clients of the situation. We will do everything possible to avoid damage to the utilities, including contacting the correct company if we are digging around pipes. We do not want to cause additional stress to our clients or damage to the home, so if there is any damage, it will be addressed with our client and the appropriate repair company.
