Flooding can do more than damage a building’s interior—it can also affect the foundation beneath it. Shifting soils, prolonged standing water, and water pressure can contribute to cracks, settlement, uneven floors, and other signs of foundation movement. After flooding, inspecting the foundation and addressing potential damage early can help prevent more serious problems.
