What You Need to Know About Bowed Foundation Walls
Bowed basement walls are typically caused by constant lateral pressure from saturated soil, expansive clay, or frost. Poor drainage from roof runoff can make this worse, increasing the weight and pressure against your foundation. When that pressure becomes too great, your foundation walls may begin to lean, bow, bulge, crack, or even collapse. These are all signs of foundation wall failure.
Left unaddressed, bowing foundation walls can eventually lead to serious structural issues, water intrusion, or even a basement wall collapse. Identifying and repairing these problems early is key to protecting your home.
