AquaGuard’s foundation repair experts will evaluate your structural damage and develop a custom solution for you, whether that means reinforcing the existing foundation, or removing it and reconstructing it. Every foundation repair project is unique and will be handled in that manner.
Common Foundation Problem Signs
Foundation Reconstruction
AquaGuard is one of the few companies in Western Pennsylvania that can completely replace any foundation.
Many foundation issues can be resolved with one of our bracing options (link to bracing). However, some foundation damage is so severe that the only option is replacement.
Our trained specialists will walk you through the process and share examples of our previous work. We have the expertise to replace the following:
- Foundation walls
- Footers
- Concrete slabs
- Main support beams
- Masonry restoration
The replacement of all, or part, of a foundation will include a complete exterior waterproofing solution that is covered with a 30-year transferrable warranty.
Mine Subsidence
Mine subsidence is a real danger in Western Pennsylvania and can cause sudden and severe damage to your home.
If your foundation has been affected by sinking soil around your property, it’s time to call the experts at AquaGuard.
Once the area has been stabilized (typically the DEP will pump fly ash into the collapsed mines), we can help get your home back to its original condition.
You can check the DEP website to find out if your home may be undermined. If it is, we highly recommend that you invest in a mine subsidence insurance policy through the state. The policy is typically inexpensive and can protect you from a potentially significant cost of repairing your home should mine subsidence occur.
These photos show a home in the Canonsburg area that was affected by sudden mine subsidence. Approximately half of the foundation was replaced, as well as retaining walls and concrete basement slab.
