Benefits of Calling Professionals<\/p>\n

Other Important Considerations<\/p>\n

House foundation repair<\/span>\u00a0is not something that the homeowner should take lightly nor attempt to turn into one of those do-it-yourself projects.

Additionally, as part of normal home maintenance, it is a good idea to have your sewer lines tested for leaks at least once a year.\u00a0 You may think you will see an increase in your water bill if you have a leak but this is not true because the sewer lines are not metered in any way. There could be leaks under the ground that have potential to cause foundation movement.\u00a0 To test this, call a licensed plumber to do a static test on the sewer.\u00a0 Most homeowners\u2019 insurance policies will cover the cost to access the leak but not to repair it.\u00a0 If your house shifts due to a sewer leak, typically the policy will exclude foundation damage unless you have a special endorsement.\u00a0 It is best to check with your agent to see what the options are.<\/p>\n
