Don't Let Your Foundation Crack in Michigan

Why do foundation walls crack in Michigan? Because your builder never used a backer board!

When ground water saturation occurs in the freeze thaw periods of winter, the ground expands, creating tremendous pressure on below ground portions of the foundation walls. This stress eventually fractures the wall.

According to the Home Inspection Census more than 50% of all basement foundation walls have a good chance of cracking in Michigan or bowing in the winters! Find out what you can do with professional help to avoid that from happening to your home in Michigan
