What is House & Floor Leveling?

If you have noticed cracks in your floor or walls, your house may be experiencing problems with its foundation.

House or floor leveling describes the process in which a home is lifted as closely as possible to its original level when it was new. Because the ground shifts, so does the foundation of a house, which can cause it to break or crack (particularly for concrete slab foundations) and begin to sink. The experts at Alpha Structural have been in business for over twenty-five years. Our combined technical and practical expertise can help you find the best solution for your foundation needs.

Benefits of House and Floor Leveling

Every home is built on a foundation. However, this base can shift as the ground it’s built on moves. Homes are heavy, so as time passes, this can cause cracks, sinkage, settling, or other kinds of damage from water and soil.

When you choose to level your home, you are choosing to repair one of the most important parts of your home. If your foundation has problems, not only does the value of your house drop, there can be extensive damage that can be quite costly to fix.
