Settlement Repair
Differential foundation settlement — how it is confirmed, watched, and addressed.
San Diego County foundation settlement diagnostics — why a foundation settles, how to tell normal settling from a structural problem, and how independent local providers compare repair methods for your specific soil and settlement pattern.
Settlement RepairRequest ServiceA sentence or two is enough. What you noticed, where on the property, and roughly when it started decide where a diagnosis begins.
The useful details are the boring ones: what you saw, where — which wall, which corner, inside or outside — and when it started, including whether it has gotten worse or stayed the same. Whether anything has already been looked at, and what you were told, matters too. What you do not need is a diagnosis. A confident guess at the cause is the least useful part of the message, because working out the cause is the point. "I don't know if this is even settlement" is a completely normal way to start. Select the category that seems closest from the dropdown, or choose "I'm not sure what it is" — either is fine, and the description matters more than the selection.
Send it anyway. Normal settling, framing issues, and even a plumbing leak all get mistaken for active differential settlement, and ruling one out is quick.
