Small Problems Lead to Bigger Repairs

Why a Solid Foundation Is the Key to a Safe and Lasting Home

At Sinai Construction, we recently inspected a home showing signs of failing concrete piers—a common but serious issue that can lead to extensive and expensive foundation damage.

What Are Concrete Piers?

Concrete piers are vertical supports under your home that help carry the weight of the structure. Over time, these piers can crack, crumble, or shift, especially if they were poorly constructed or exposed to moisture.

Why Failing Concrete Piers Are Dangerous

A failing pier means your home’s foundation is no longer fully supported. This leads to:

• Uneven floors

• Wall cracks

• Sticking doors/windows

• Sagging or shifting of the structure

Worse, if left unaddressed, deteriorating piers can weaken the entire foundation, putting your investment—and your family—at risk.

“A damaged foundation is weak. As time goes on it gets weaker. Sooner or later it may be unable to carry the weight it bears, and it could collapse.”

Small Problems Lead to Bigger Repairs

Cracks in piers allow water to seep in, worsening the damage. Over time, what could have been a simple repair becomes a costly foundation replacement project.

“Repair is so much cheaper than replacement.”
