What Shawano Foundations Face

Wisconsin's changing seasons can put stress on residential and commercial foundations. In Shawano, freezing and thawing ground, seasonal rainfall, and snowmelt can affect soil conditions around a property. When water collects near the foundation or the surrounding soil shifts, it can contribute to foundation movement, cracking, and basement moisture problems.

Drainage issues can make these concerns worse. Water that isn't directed away from a building can collect around the foundation, increasing moisture exposure and potentially contributing to damage over time.

Recognizing these concerns early can help you determine when a professional inspection may be needed. At ABT Foundation Solutions, we provide foundation repair and waterproofing services to help Shawano property owners address these issues and protect their investments.

Services We Offer

Foundation Repair & Stabilization

We specialize in comprehensive foundation repair services that are designed to address various issues caused by hydrostatic pressure and foundation settling. These issues include bowing walls, wall cracks, uneven floors, and more.

Basement Waterproofing

We offer interior and exterior basement waterproofing services to help keep your home protected. We can install and repair interior drainage systems, sump pumps, and exterior drainage solutions.

Crawl Space Repair & Encapsulation

Crawl spaces are more common under older homes, and controlling the moisture level can be difficult. Our Dry Right™ Crawl Space Solution ensures that your crawl space remains clean, dry, and protected from future damage.

Concrete Leveling

Uneven settlement can affect other areas of your home like the driveway, sidewalk, or patio. We use the effective polyjacking technique to level it back out. Our method is cleaner, requires smaller drilling holes, and lasts longer.

Egress Window Installations

If you want to be able to use the valuable space in your basement, egress windows are specially designed basement windows that provide improved ventilation, more natural light, and a safe exit in case of emergencies. Our experts provide code-compliant installation that meets all the necessary state regulations.

Gutter Installations

Your home’s gutters play a crucial role in protecting your roof, walls, and foundation from water damage. We provide quality gutter installation and gutter guard systems to help protect your home’s siding and foundation.

Common Signs Your Shawano Home Needs Foundation Repair

Foundation problems aren’t always obvious at first. Knowing which warning signs to watch for can help you recognize when it’s time to have your property inspected.

Common signs of foundation problems include:

  • Cracks in foundation walls or interior drywall
  • Bowing, buckling, or leaning basement walls
  • Uneven or sloping floors
  • Doors or windows that stick or no longer close properly
  • Gaps around window or door frames
  • Water intrusion or standing water in the basement
  • Persistent dampness or musty odors
  • Water pooling near the foundation after rainfall or snowmelt
  • Visible signs of foundation settling
  • Cracks or separation around exterior masonry

Not every crack or change indicates a serious structural issue, but new or worsening symptoms are worth investigating. Our team can inspect the affected areas and help you understand what may be causing the problem.

Helical piers are deep foundation support systems designed to transfer structural loads to suitable soil or load-bearing strata. Depending on the property’s conditions and engineering requirements, they can be used to support foundations and address certain types of settlement or instability.

Every property has different structural needs, which is why proper assessment is important when determining the right foundation support solution. If you’re experiencing foundation movement or have concerns about your property’s stability, our team can evaluate the situation and discuss potential next steps.
