New Construction? Why You Need a Foundation Repair Specialist On Your Team

If you’ve just moved into a new construction home or you’re in the process of building one, you have a lot on your plate. From cabinets and paint samples to the flooring and appliance allowance, you’re learning a great deal about your new home and how to ensure your investment stays valuable for the long run. 

At some point during the process of building or moving in, you may start researching information about home foundations. You may end up reading that foundations, if not properly built and supported, need home foundation repair down the road. New home builders are typically building homes as efficiently and affordable as possible, so the consideration of a long term foundation solution isn’t top of mind. 

You want to avoid a failing foundation situation, because you want to ensure your family is safe, healthy, and of course your house is strong. Further, you don’t want to sell the home down the road and worry about foundation repairs. Most importantly, you don’t want to compromise your safety or discover that this part of your home has the potential to damage all your hard work and savings.

Typically, one of the most common proactive recommendations that PierMagic makes is the installation of foundation piers. Although many homeowners think these are only for homes that are unstable, this is not always the case. Foundation piering is an investment in your home to prevent foundation repair in the future. With the clay soil around the Kansas City area, new home piers are crucial to the stability and safety of your new home. 

Why PierMagic Recommends Piering as a Home Foundation Repair Solution

Piering is the process of driving strong steel piers into the soil and securing them with concrete, both and outside. These piers are placed deep enough in the ground to get to the most stable, firm soil beneath the home. The foundation is then built on these piers. In the case of an already-built foundation, piers can be successfully integrated under the foundation by excavating beneath the home.

The purpose of these piers is to anchor the home to the strongest soil. This strengthens the home despite insufficient soil conditions upon which homes in Kansas City are often built, preventing foundation instability down the road. Kansas City homes are built on clay soil, which has a tendency to swell when it absorbs precipitation and shrink when we are in periods of drought. Given that Kansas City experiences both a lack of rainfall in the summer, as well as rainy seasons, foundations in our area are vulnerable to shifting and changing in the soil, causing foundation movement.Foundation piering protects against the drought/flood cycle that soil withstands by providing a firm and deeply grounded foundation.

Piering is a powerful solution to ensure foundation stability. If your house’s structural weight is significant, piering is also useful in ensuring that this weight doesn’t affect the foundation. When PierMagic performs foundation piering, your home will have the strength it needs to take care of you, your family, and your investment. That’s our Kansas City foundation repair company’s mission.
