Foundation repair in Montgomery
What Montgomery homes mean for foundation repair
Montgomery's small stone-foundation core from the 1830s-1900s carries a different structural risk profile than its 1960s-1980s subdivision housing: stone walls settle and shift at the mortar joints under load, while the newer poured and block walls are more likely to show the lateral bowing pattern typical of sustained soil pressure. Underpinning a historic stone foundation calls for more conservative pier spacing, since the wall above cannot span the same distance between support points that a continuous poured wall can. The subdivision stock's block walls, where present, are the more common candidate for the carbon fiber or steel strap stabilization method used on bowing walls.
