Small hairline cracks are common in concrete. But wider cracks, stair-step cracks, or cracks that change over time can mean your foundation is under stress.

Cracks can allow water into your basement, weaken your walls, and lead to bigger problems if not fixed.

The sooner the cause is found, the easier it is to repair.

• Soil pressure from wet, expanding clay
• Settlement or shifting of the foundation
• Poor drainage or water buildup
• Temperature changes causing concrete to expand and contract
• Backfill that wasn't properly compacted

• Horizontal or stair-step cracks in block walls
• Water entering through cracks
• White powdery residue (efflorescence)

• Cracks that are widening or lengthening
• Cracks around windows, doors, or corners

Not every crack is serious. That's why Ameri-Dry begins with a thorough inspection.

We determine:

• What's causing the crack
• Whether the movement is active
• If water is getting in
• The best repair solution for your home
