4 Problems that Voids Under Your Foundation Create

Posted on February 24, 2012 By Natasha (Edit) Leave a Comment

Mudjacking can be used to lift a concrete structure by filling in voids that develop underneath your patio, slab, or pool deck. While the unevenness itself can cause problems, we wanted to bring your attention to some of the other ways that this can cause issues for your home. Here are some things, other than sinking foundations, that voids beneath your home can lead to:

  • You could run into problems with water in your basement.
  • Cracks in your foundation wall can lead to even more expensive repairs.
  • Voids make room for vermin to take up residence beneath your home and maybe, eventually, in your home.
  • The moisture in the soil also provides ideal conditions for termites to build a nest underneath your home.

Fill these problematic cavities by coming to KC Master Companies so that Master Mudjackers can come out and fix the problem quickly and easily. The protective barrier that is created will keep water away from your foundation and ensure that the structure of your home isn’t compromised.
