Symptoms of Foundation Problems: Why There are Cracks on My Wall?
Cracks on the wall, floor, or even ceiling appear when there is a foundation problem caused by the expansive soil beneath the house's foundation.

Does the Location For Each Pier Matter?
Yes, the location for the single pier is important because each spot is strategically selected to provide full foundation support based on the house's needs.
