Making the Grade
(As in your foundation)
Our dry summer and fall of
2012 may have created problems for your foundation. Check to see if you have depressions in the
soil surrounding your home. If so this
is a problem that needs to be corrected to prevent water from pooling around
your concrete causing cracking in your basement.
The slope around your house should be 1” per
foot for 6’ out. This puts the rainwater
out away from your home. A simple job
that you can do on the weekend or if you need a handyman, call me. I’m not a handyman but I know some good ones!
