Stone Foundation Repair
They say the best homes and businesses are those built on a solid foundation. However, what if yours is literally not-so-solid, looking worse-for-wear and falling apart? A poor-condition foundation or flooring can lead to all sorts of structural problems, and it’s in your best interests to not ignore the red flags when they appear.
At GWS Masonry, we’re here to help. Extend your property’s lifespan and maintain peace of mind in one fell swoop with our custom-tailored floor and foundation repair services. Our professional team has the tools and talent needed to deliver lasting results.
How to Tell if Your Floor or Foundation is in Bad Shape
There are many ways to tell if you need our foundation or floor repair services. Sometimes, there may be multiple indicators, but all of them can lead to severe problems down the road if they aren’t addressed in advance. Such red flags include sagging, creaking where there wasn’t any before, and warped flooring. For foundations, you may encounter cracks, water leaks, crumbling, or even leaning walls (get outside and call us right away if you spot this). The longer you wait, the more potential for serious risks to your structural stability, which can make it unsafe to occupy your property over time. Always remember that your building is supported by its floors and foundation, so any issues with either should be prioritized.
Our Floor & Foundation Repair Process
GWS Masonry is renowned for our masonry repairs, but we also know how to restore your flooring and foundation to the best possible condition. For example, we can rejuvenate old concrete floors by removing the entire old floor. Then, we have a new concrete floor poured (or cover the original if deemed a suitable solution). For foundations, we work closely with you to identify its condition, how severe the wear or damage is, and what can be done to address it. Usually, this involves repairing cracks to sunken foundation walls to make them more secure and resistant to leaks. GWS Masonry is proud to specialize in stone foundations, in particular, using our many years of experience to produce the best possible results.

Anything can happen, and that’s what we’re prepared for.
Some instances when our stone foundation repairs come in handy include missing stone, cracks, water damage, leaning, sagging, disintegrating cement joints, cold drafts, and crumbling mortar.

We can remove old cement and mortar, clear away loose debris, refill joints with cement, and more.
