The owners of this midcentury, red brick Tucson area home reached out to us after noticing several signs of a potential foundation problem.
These symptoms included:
- internal wall cracks
- external wall cracks
- doors and windows out of square
An initial - Level A - foundation inspection determined that a more in depth, forensic foundation inspection - or Level B - foundation inspection was required. The results of that determined foundation settlement to be the root cause of this home’s foundation problem. It was recommended that the home be underpinned to address the issue.
