The idea of building a house on a foundation started centuries ago. Structures built in ancient times were situated on piers to raise it above the wet and to protect the inhabitants from animals and hostile enemies. Later, the Romans used concrete as foundations for their buildings, many of which still stand today. In more recent times, we have come to think of foundations as the bases for any building, and we understand that without a solid foundation, the building won’t last.

There are several types of foundations, each with its pros and cons. One common trait, however, is that they are prone to shift, causing cracks and allowing moisture into a home. Within the building industry, experts have devised ways to protect homes by restoring their foundations with structural support and waterproofing methods.

Crawlspace and foundation problems plague many Baltimore households. From leaks and condensation to cracks that invite rodents and insects, homeowners should address foundation concerns promptly to avoid costly damage.

DIY solutions aren’t appropriate in these cases. Instead, a homeowner should contact a reliable home contractor with the necessary skills to deal with various problems.

Our Services in Baltimore and Surrounding Areas

Basement Foundation Repair

Shifting soil and impeding tree roots can wreak havoc on foundations in Baltimore and nearby areas. Left uncontested, they often lead to cracks, requiring basement repairs. Accurate Builders of the Chesapeake can access the basement foundation to make repairs with reliable methods to prevent the problem from spreading.

Basement Waterproofing

Basement moisture and leaks are constant concerns for homeowners Baltimore. However, after examining the property’s layout and other client-specific factors, we can devise a tailor-made waterproofing solution. It results in a dry environment less prone to water damage.

Cracked Brick/Block Repair

Cracks in bricks or blocks might not be of concern for many, but it can become a severe challenge if left unresolved. Over time, cracks invite more moisture, leading to instability and mold growth. These can spread to the rest of the house, making the home a hazard to the residents’ safety and health.

Crawl Space Encapsulation

A surefire way to improve a crawl space is to encapsulate it. Accurate Builders of the Chesapeake typically use a waterproof polyethylene barrier to stop any moisture in its tracks. The homeowner can instantly tell the difference, as the encapsulation helps lower energy bills and helps keep insects at bay.

Crawl Space Waterproofing

Residents needing premium crawl space waterproofing services should contact Accurate Builders of the Chesapeake. We have all the equipment and experience to seal the area from top to bottom, leaving humidity hopeless and unable to spread.

Foundation Replacement

Foundation cracks can get out of hand if left untreated. Eventually, they weaken the slab and other supporting elements, so the owner has no option but to replace the foundation. Although it’s a significant project, we’ll go out of our way to make it as seamless as possible. Within two or three days, the family receives a robust new foundation that elevates the safety and value of their property.

Moisture Barrier Installation

Our licensed team is versatile since we can install moisture barriers in virtually any space throughout a house. However, we usually mount it under the place, which is where most moisture originates from. Once it’s up and running, it protects the dwelling from large-scale water damage.

Slab Foundation Repair

Our slab foundation repair services can make all the difference for Baltimore residences. Whether we inject polyurethane or epoxy to make the repairs, our custom-made solutions resolve the cracks in the slab, effectively stabilizing it. The service improves a home’s structural integrity and water damage resistance.

Basement Wall Repair

Basement walls are notorious for attracting moisture and may need special attention. We can line them with appropriate barriers to fend off humidity and keep the area dry. Consequently, the walls become less susceptible to cracks and other structural issues.

Cracked/Broken Concrete Repair

Concrete shrinks as it hardens. Any excess water mixed into the material evaporates during this process and causes cracks. In some cases, they can break the concrete slab altogether. In these cases, we can apply durable materials and utilize efficient methods to repair and reinforce the concrete, making it less likely to develop future problems.

Pier and Beam Foundation

Glen Burnie locals and residents of surrounding areas can depend on us for pier and beam foundation services. These foundations are typically superior to standard installations because of their elevation off the ground. As a result, they’re isolated from ground moisture, making the property more flood-resistant.

Foundation Leak Repair

Accurate Builders of the Chesapeake specialize in efficient foundation leak repairs. After exposing and cleaning the crack, we inject reliable waterproof materials to seal the gap and reduce the risk of future problems. Families who invest in this service enjoy greater home safety and comfort while shielding the yard and the rest of the property from moisture.

Retaining Wall Repair

Underpinning / Foundation Stabilization

A foundation may be so old that it can no longer support the house. Alternatively, the building’s purpose may have changed, requiring a stronger foundation. Either way, our stabilization, and underpinning services are the answer. We can improve a property’s structural integrity by deepening the foundation and adding more concrete.

New Construction Foundation Installation

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I repair my foundation?
When a building has a foundation problem, whether minor or more severe, it is essential to contact a professional like those at Accurate Builders of the Chesapeake. The foundation is the only thing standing between a building remaining upright. Even if there are only a few cracks or the start of a sloping floor, it must be taken care of. Any delay means that a building’s condition deteriorates, and the more it deteriorates, the more unstable it becomes. Foundation problems are nothing to ignore, and they’re something to address upfront.
All foundation issues should be taken seriously. What may look small can indicate a huge problem that needs to be taken care of immediately. If a home’s foundation is settling and affecting the structure, the homeowners will likely see wall cracks, bowing walls, sloping floors, and sticking doors or windows. Luckily, we have several services that can address these issues and ensure they don’t return.
Typically, unless the damage is extreme, foundation repair often takes two to three days. If a home has severe damage that requires extra work, it may take longer. For example, if we have to install deeper footings, excavate deeper, or restore other parts of the home following the installation of piers.
If a homeowner ignores their foundation damage, they may face severe failure and even lose the home to the damage so that foundation repair will save money. Also, if a house is experiencing foundation damage in the form of wall cracks or basement or crawl space leaks, there are weak points that let the outside elements in. With these weaknesses, heating and cooling bills increase, along with added maintenance to the areas that need help. Accurate Builders of the Chesapeake seals a home so homeowners save money on their monthly energy bills.
Depending on the kind of foundation repair needed, it may be necessary to remove any bushes or shrubs in the way. However, this is done carefully after advising our clients of the situation. We will do everything possible to avoid damage to the utilities, including contacting the correct company if we are digging around pipes. We do not want to cause additional stress to our clients or damage to the home, so if there is any damage, it will be addressed with our client and the appropriate repair company.
We are always looking for people with the mindset and talent for foundation repair or waterproofing. Contact us if you’re interested!
