One of the worst situations to be in as a homeowner is when you discover your property has significant foundation problems. Foundation repairs can feel daunting, and they can definitely cost a lot of money. Whether you find your foundation repair contractor online or via word of mouth, you need to know how to save money while taking care of your home’s structural problems.
The video posted here is from the perspective of a homeowner with foundation problems. He mentions how stressful it can be to have to fix your foundation, and that he was getting mixed messages from multiple foundation repair contractors.
The most important tip from the video is that you can save money by having your foundation checked out by a structural engineer. Structural engineers offer inspections but they don’t necessarily offer foundation repair services. What you will get from the engineer is a detailed report on the state of your home’s foundation, which you can then use to move forward with a competent foundation repair contractor without worrying about conflicts of interest.
