4 Reasons to Fix Foundation Problems Now

• Foundation problems never improve — they just get worse and worse. Once a crack appears in the foundation, it's nearly guaranteed that the crack will grow in size. Indeed, where there's one crack, there's probably others. The longer you wait to fix the problem, the bigger (literally) it's going to get.
• Foundation cracks may allow pests and water to enter the structure. Bugs are bad enough, once moisture gets in the home, you have to consider the possibility of mold. Not only can mold cause wood rot, it can cause respiratory problems for you and your family.
• A failing foundation causes all types of other problems in your home, too. Stuck windows and doors, wrinkled wallpaper, cracks in the sheet rock and ceiling, popped floor tiles, warped hardwood floors and gaps between the planks, cracks in your fireplace and exterior brick walls, and a host of other problems. The longer you put off dealing with a foundation problem, the more of these problems you'll face.
• When it comes time to sell your home, any foundation failure will affect the sale price of your home significantly, not to mention the cost of fixing the other problems the foundation failure caused. Keep this in mind, too: Most banks don't grant a mortgage without some promise that a foundation failure will be fixed.
