SOIL STABILIZATION
Soil stabilization involves injection of grouts into sink holes to stop this movement of soil and prevent future erosion, thereby protecting your waterproofing systems and drains.

The foundation of a house is the load-bearing portion of the structure, which is typically built below ground level. Foundations are designed for many important purposes:
While all foundations perform these functions, each type of foundation has their unique advantages and disadvantages.
The most common materials used to construct these foundations include concrete blocks, solid poured concrete, field stone and red bricks. There are modular basement foundation designs available for new construction basements.
In the Mid-Atlantic region, and in particular, the eastern half of Maryland and northern Delaware, a vast number of homes are built on basement foundations.
According to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB),
“Homes in colder areas, where building codes normally require foundations to be built below the frost line, are predominately constructed with full or partial basements.”
As recently as 2020, an NAHB survey found almost 70% of new homes in our region are built with full or partial basements.
A basement anchors the house to the ground while extending the foundation below the frost line. This is important for maintaining the structural integrity of the foundation over time. In addition, a basement foundation offers homeowners several advantages and benefits:
The additional square-footage gained, at a lower cost per square foot than the rest of the home, can be used for storage and, if necessary, shelter during extreme weather events.
Creating a finished basement can provide a spacious and energy-efficient living space that, while having limited natural light, is relatively warm in winter months and cool in the summer.
Carrying out maintenance or repairs on your home’s utilities is quicker and easier for technicians if they can stand up. Unlike crawl space or slab foundations, basements make this possible.
However, basements are also prone to damage such as cracking, leaking, and flooding. Water causes more damage to foundations than perhaps any other reason. The best solution for most foundation issues is to install foundation waterproofing to prevent water and moisture from entering the basement.

“Overall, the cost of foundation repair tends to be between $2,000 and $7,500, with a national average of $4,500. You may be able to have very small cracks filled with epoxy for a few hundred dollars, but severe foundation problems can run you up to $15,000 – $25,000.”
