❋ Sinking PilingsThe sandy soils of the Outer Banks may cause piling foundations to settle unevenly with time. It is important to address these issues before they affect the integrity of your home. Increased stress on fasteners and structural elements can weaken the overall structure while also causing cosmetic damage.
❋ Sinking FloorsPoorly supported floor systems can begin to sag for various reasons. Oversized joist spans, indirect load paths, and sandy, beachy soils can all cause floors to sink. This can result in cracked tiles, dragging or uneven doors, slanted floors, plumbing issues, and more.
❋ Crawlspace EncapsulationCrawlspaces on the beach commonly experience excessive moisture build-up from soils, HVAC equpiment, and humidity. Prolonged exposure to high levels of condensation can damage insulation and subject wood surfaces to mold growth and accelerated decay. Crawlspace encapsulation is a method of managing moisture levels beneath your home by fortifying its thermal barrier and installing equipment to decrease humidity.
❋ Foundation and Structural RepairsAs with most things, the fundamental part of your home’s integrity is its foundation. Failure of your foundation system can result in a substantial deterioration of your home’s lifespan.
