Home Structural Repair Services for Residents of Southern New Hampshire

Every house is going to settle over time. Some creaks and groans here and there typically aren’t anything to worry about. But when your house has settled a little too much—to a point where you can tell just by looking at it—you’ll need to act quickly to get these issues fixed. Meetinghouse Builders offers home structural repair services in southern New Hampshire that can address a wide variety of problems faced by homes of virtually any architectural style.

Possible Causes of Your Home’s Structural Damage

There are numerous reasons why our clients find themselves in need of home structural repairs, and many of them are related to the southern New Hampshire climate. Plus, identifying the cause of the problem is crucial to identifying the best solution. Here are some common causes of structural damage in our area:

• Soil expansion and contraction – Soft soil sinks foundations faster. And when the soil beneath your home is most actively moving (during heavy rainfall or extended droughts), your foundation will be moved.

• Water damage – Whether your home has had water damage in the past or you’ve noticed moisture intrusion more recently, this can affect your home’s structural integrity if left untreated.

• Lateral pressure – Over time, a combination of soil softness, excessive water absorption, and high winds can lead to bulges or cracks in your walls.

• Age – The older your home is, the more time it’s had to settle. And the more it’s settled, the more pressure it’s put on the foundation—which could cause it to crack.
