Foundation Repair in Memphis: local context
Memphis sits on loess bluffs above the Mississippi River, has hot humid summers and heavy rain, lies near the New Madrid seismic zone, and most homes are on crawl spaces or slabs.
Most Memphis homes sit on slabs or pier-and-beam foundations over soils that move with moisture. Repair work here commonly involves pressed or drilled piers, pier-and-beam re-shimming and leveling, and drainage changes around the house.
Local factors that come up in Memphis include shrink-swell clay soils, seismic risk, where some older raised-foundation homes are candidates for seismic retrofits and heavy rain and poor drainage. For significant cracking or movement, many homeowners get an independent evaluation from a licensed structural engineer before choosing a repair contract. This directory does not evaluate structures.
Licensing and permit rules differ by state and city. Check with Tennessee licensing authorities and the local building or permitting office for what applies to your project.
Questions to ask before you hire
- What is causing the movement, and how did you determine that?
- Which repair method do you recommend, and why that one?
- Will a structural engineer review the plan?
- Is the warranty transferable, and what does it cover?
- Who pulls permits?
