Cable Lock Foundation Repair
By Ken Marlborough
Foundation repairs are the most expensive, and sometimes the hardest type of damage to detect. This is the reason why they are so expensive, and difficult to fix. As soon as you notice problems with your foundation, it is already too late and will cost you a lot of money to fix.
What Causes the Problems?
The main cause of structural damage in the foundations of houses is caused by the clay soil the house is built on. Clay soil expands when they are wet, and contracts when they are dry. Over time, this constant cycle of expansion and contraction of the soil will eventually cause your foundation to fail. This is the time when your will begin to notice cracks forming around your home.
Most homeowners with foundation problems wait to fix the damage to their foundation. This will cause the damage to worsen, as well as spread to different parts of the house. The main reason why people wait to fix the damage is due to the fact that they might not have the money to fix the damage.
What is Cable Lock?
The cable lock system is a way that insures proper alignment of your home's foundation to the surface. Proper alignment will make sure that future problems would be unlikely to occur. This system uses concrete that is reinforced with steel. It has been proven that this method of fixing the foundation last longer that other method of repair.
Cost:
Even with its proven superiority over other methods, the cost of this system is comparable to the cost of the others. In fact, the cable lock system can be less expensive that some of the other competitors. This system can even cost as low as one third of the cost of some other its contemporaries.
