Foundation Repair across Middle Tennessee

Foundation Repair across Middle Tennessee

Foundation contractors who measure the movement, explain it, and repair what is moving rather than everything the house has.

Foundation crews serving Nashville also cover Franklin, Brentwood, Murfreesboro, Hendersonville — 65 towns in 12 counties. The houses are not the same in any two of those towns, and neither is the foundation repair work:

• Nashville. Pre-war houses sit on stone or rubble foundations with shallow footings, and the movement in them is a century old; the repair is stabilization and drainage, not a modern pier job.
• Brentwood. Late-eighties and nineties houses on hilly lots are the ones with tall block foundation walls, and bowing walls from soil pressure are the typical repair.
• Murfreesboro. The 2000s subdivisions were built fast on graded clay, and the settlement shows at garage corners and porch slabs; it is usually local, and the drainage caused it.
• Hendersonville. Seventies and eighties houses have had forty years of clay movement, and the cracks in them are often stable; measuring whether they are still moving is the first job.
• Columbia. Pre-war houses sit on stone or rubble foundations with shallow footings, and the movement in them is a century old; the repair is stabilization and drainage, not a modern pier job.
• Lebanon. Rural houses on old foundations and long drives have movement that has been happening for decades, and the repair is stabilization and drainage more often than piers.
