So better gutters will fix it? Gotta feel good when you can look at a house and know what the cause of damage was and how to fix it. Nice work!

Stem wall work is fun… also that j bolt won’t be “loose” after the hydro concrete… and in bedrock AZ, where is your footing moving to? Hit em with rust stop, cut out the bad parts… and fix the water next to your house problem…should be fine….

Does it really need post tension? Houses were made without it a long time - what if it was just patched and the foundation not put back under tension - instead release pressure then leave as is? I am not being a smart ass but wondering how long the house foundation will last without the tension
@ConcreteRepairman 5 ай бұрын
The Monolithic slab foundation without tension cables will have structural failure quickly. The reason is the soil around the (1 foot) foundation wall, will continue to move down from settlement causing the interior floor and wall separation over time.

when you say laminate flooring works the best, do you mean sheet laminate or the new trendy laminate planks with weak locking systems? The planks have very specific tolerances for flatness, and I would think they wouldn't work well in this scenario.

We’ve complained that our condo-townhouse has erosion out the back to a canal that passes behind the building. When deck restoration was started, you could see that fill from under our concrete slab had eroded a good 8 feet under our living room to the back patio. Our tile floor shows a fine crack from back to mid-living room. Should we be concerned, or is it normal to have voids under your slab? Will a 4 foot, wood plank retaining wall be enough to hold the fill from eroding into the canal-the townhome is elevated over the canal by about 6-8 feet? We alerted Florida Building Code Enforcement, who issued the permit for the deck restoration, but they were apathetic.
@ConcreteRepairman Жыл бұрын
You need a Civil Engineer. The engineer will draw up the repair plan. Some engineer firms also do their work, which is likely going to be the best. In the end you will have certified repair work done certified by a licensed engineer, this will help sell your home.
@mavirek Жыл бұрын
@@ConcreteRepairman The deck is common area behind my condo, so the restoration was done by the Assoc. The outside of the condo, including foundation I assume, is the responsibility of the Assoc. Having noticed the void under our foundation as they demolished the deck, we told the Assoc. and the local Florida buildings dept (same people who issued the permit for the deck restoration). Neither cared. We took pictures, but that's where the issue comes to a standstill . . . until the erosion levels my home. Was just wondering if this common, to pretend it doesn't matter until the building foundation snaps?

Who did you end up using in Austin? My 20* 20 tile floors are developing long hairline cracks inside the house in several places and I called the foundation companies who didn’t say much. And today I noticed that the crack is actually running from the exact same spot from the garage concrete and is exactly lining up the crack in the middle of the house running from garage to laundry and now to living room and horizontally to the kitchen. This was the first crack that was there when I bought the house since nothing was said in inspection and now it has spread. House had no rain gutters and 12 years old. I have installed the gutters but I can see changing the floors won’t help if the underlying issue is not resolved.

i dont know anything about post tensioned systems but my guess is that since you already checked gutters and i'm assuming you already checked for proper drainage, you could have a couple of things that could've attributed to the corrosion... 1. improper cover (unlikely as it was prob designed and inspectioned by competent ppl), 2. improper curing (likely... contractors dont give a damn about curing), 3. improper protection of the exposed tendons after post tension (unlikely... the piece of tendon sticking out looks clean). just a thought
