A sinking corner. A door that won't latch anymore. A crack that wasn't there last fall. These are the calls Spanish Fork Foundation Pros gets most, and most of them trace back to the same thing: soil under the house moving more than the structure can handle.

Spanish Fork sits in a growth corridor of Utah County, and a lot of newer builds here are settling faster than older homes because the valley clay and sandy pockets beneath them haven't fully stabilized yet. Spanish Fork Foundation Pros inspects the movement, figures out what's driving it, and builds a repair plan around that cause instead of just patching what's visible.

What's included

What's Included with Foundation Repair

Typically included: Optional: Customer prep:

  • Full exterior and interior inspection with photos documenting crack width and location
  • Soil assessment to understand what's beneath the foundation and how deep stable soil sits
  • Written scope naming the repair method (piering, crack injection, or both) before any work starts
  • Post-repair grading so water sheds away from the foundation instead of pooling against it
  • Interior drain tile tie-in if water intrusion accompanies the settlement
  • Monitoring visits after the repair to confirm the fix is holding
  • Clear access along the foundation perimeter where excavation is planned
  • Move vehicles and landscaping items away from the work zone for the scheduled day

Materials

Materials and Methods for Foundation Repair

Material choice depends on what the soil report says and how much the structure needs to move. Here's what we reach for most.

  • Steel Push Piers photo

    Steel Push Piers

    Provide deep support by transferring structural weight to stable soil layers beneath Spanish Fork's shifting valley clay.

  • Helical Piers photo

    Helical Piers

    Offer adjustable depth support ideal for lighter structures and additions, useful on lots with mixed sand and clay.

  • Foundation Brackets photo

    Foundation Brackets

    Secure piers to the foundation for consistent load transfer during the lift.

  • Hydraulic Jacks photo

    Hydraulic Jacks

    Used to carefully lift and level settled foundation sections without overcorrecting.

  • Structural Shims photo

    Structural Shims

    Placed to fine-tune elevation adjustments during leveling, especially on uneven slabs.

  • Waterproof Sealant photo

    Waterproof Sealant

    Applied to repaired areas to prevent future moisture intrusion during spring snowmelt.

FAQs

Foundation Repair FAQs

How do I know if my foundation crack is serious or just cosmetic?

Hairline vertical cracks under about 1/8 inch are usually cosmetic shrinkage. Diagonal, stair-step, or widening cracks usually mean the foundation is moving and need a professional look.

How much does foundation repair cost in Spanish Fork?

It depends heavily on method. Crack injection alone runs far less than a multi-pier underpinning job. We give exact numbers after a site visit, never a phone quote.

Is it normal for new-build homes in Utah County to settle this fast?

Newer construction on valley soil can settle quicker than older homes while the ground compacts under the new load. It's common, but it still needs monitoring and sometimes early correction.

Do I need a permit to lift my driveway or patio?

Most concrete lifting work doesn't require a permit since no structure is added. Structural foundation piering usually does.

Is DIY foundation repair a good idea?

For hairline cosmetic cracks, a caulk-tube sealant is fine. Anything involving active movement, bowing, or structural piering needs equipment and engineering judgment a homeowner doesn't have.
