If you're like most homeowners, you probably don't think much about your home's foundation. After all, it's not something that you can see or touch on a daily basis. However, the foundation is one of the most important parts of your home, and if it starts to fail, the rest of the house will soon follow. We have put together a quick list of three signs that you may need to call a foundation repair company:

1. Cracks in your walls or ceilings: If you start to notice cracks in your walls or ceilings, it's a good indicator that there is underlying damage to your foundation. These cracks will only get worse over time, so it's best to have them fixed as soon as possible.

2. Doors and windows that won't stay open or shut: If your doors and windows start to stick or won't stay open or shut properly, it's likely due to foundation settlement. This can be a serious problem because it can cause gaps in your home's envelope, allowing water and air to enter.

3. Uneven floors: Uneven floors are another sign of foundation settlement. If you notice that your floors are no longer level, it's time to call a foundation expert. Left unchecked, this problem will only get worse and could eventually lead to structural collapse.

If you notice any of these signs, don't hesitate to call a foundation repair company. They will be able to assess the damage and determine the best course of action for getting your home back on solid ground.
