Mount Olive, NC Attentive Foundation Repair, Basement Waterproofing & more

1500 sq feet add more insulation

Basement leaks

I have installed a moisture barrier and several fans to no avail. The fans run year round. Additionally, the house was built in 1900, so the area that accumulates the most moisture does not have good air circulation due the proximity of the floor joist to the ground, in some places between 12 and 18 inches. I don't know whether installing a dehumidifier will be of any benefit.

Concrete foundation repair.

Have brick veneer home on sandy loam. It was built in 1973 (1,000 sq. ft). On crawl space with slab carport/utility combination. No sever damage noticed yet, but piers under home seem too few and cinder block with shems and bricks as support. Bathroom floor (no obvious water issues since lived her about 9 years, shower leak but no water damage at repair. About 1-1.25 inch drop in bath at hallway doorway near bath's behind-door linen closet, soft spots/sagging in about a 2'x3' area from head of tub, in front of closet (closet solid) and up to hallway hinge-side door frame. Under home, we used light and see some cinder blocks cracked and fallen away, 1 tilting pier (may have sunk a little, and may be leaning) and creaking floor in kitchen and bedroom at times (seasonally better or worse). Think tub area could use more support and certainly a couple of other areas floor is humped or sagging. Not too level when bought old home, but not worrisome until softness showing in bathroom area, seems to be getting worse. Definitely not supported well enough under home. Trench along inside of crawlspace is not back-filled (not sure if back-fill refers to outer foundation wall or inner foundation wall. No real damage on brick veneer so not awful "YET"! Estimate to fix minimally, very tight budget right now. If not doable inexpensively, (adding a few supports, and sheming up a few existing piers), may have to attempt to do something make-shift ourselves (prefer not to do this however). I appreciate your expertise in these matters. I also have several dogs, so would have to put them inside home while work done outside. Will you need to be inside as well to shore-up piers, or could all work be done outside? We also have a barn shed 12x20 that sunk and is off bricks (dogs dug under) but can't figure how to jack up one side safely in sandy loamy soil. Tried to get shed mover's number but can't get sales person to call us back. They said they would level once when it settled. Honestly, my husband and I talked about having the whole shed lifted and moved forward out of this "pit" our dogs have made under it. But the house is most-important right now. I can assist inside with "calling level" if necessary while work done under home. How long would be expected to take to do job? Hours? or whole day?

I have a house built in 1939. Energy bills keep going up. I have little to no insulation in walls. I would like to see what it would cost to have insulation blown into exterior walls of house. House is 1901 sq. ft. with 18 windows & 3 exterior doors. I have replaced windows, and exterior doors, blown in attic insulation and insulated under the house. Exterior wall insulation is all I have left.

Unlevel floors

Floor not level

When you are facing the front of the house standing in the front yard, it's the left side of the house that's sinking. All the way down the side that the carport is attached too needs to be raised and supported. We have recently inherited this house and we're looking to get an estimate as soon as possible. Thank you so much!

We are buying the house we live in now and are trying to get an estimate, as inspector stated that one of the pillars under the house was not sturdy and was just supported by bricks.

New house. Needs foam insulation bonus room and walls.
