A variety of factors contribute to the underlying issues that lead to sinking house floors and slabs, leaning or cracked walls, jammed doors and more.
These issues often stem from changes in the ground beneath a property, leading to soil movement. The impact of these changes can vary significantly depending on the type of ground your property is built on, with certain conditions exacerbating the effects.
As the ground shifts, it can cause buildings to experience subsidence, where foundations or footings lose their support and sink into the weakened ground.
Here are a few of the common causes of house subsidence.
Particularly in areas with clay-heavy soils, the ground can contract significantly during dry spells, reducing support for the piers.
Conversely, excessive moisture from heavy rains or flooding can cause soils to swell and shift, leading to uneven support.
Water flow from rain, drainage problems, or leaks can wash away the soil base, causing piers to settle.
If the soil under a home wasn’t compacted properly during construction, it could compress over time under the weight of the building, leading to subsidence.
Large tree roots can grow extensively underground, displacing the soil around and beneath floor piers.
Over time, organic material in the soil, like tree stumps or timber, can decay, causing voids in the earth.
