Bowing basement walls

When the foundation wall curves inward it bows the basement walls. When the pressure becomes high for the wall to handle it starts to bow and can even break if not repaired soon.

Sinking floors/corners

A sinking floor can be a sign of a damaged foundation that should not be ignored. The main cause of the sinking of floors or corners is the soil below the foundation.
