Local know-how

Why foundations move in North Jersey

North Jersey has some of the oldest housing in the state. Two-family homes, brownstones and older single-family houses often have brick, stone or block foundations that are 80 to 120 years old, and time, water and frost have taken their toll.

The soil here was shaped by glaciers: dense till, clay and boulders in some places, soft, wet ground near the Passaic and Hackensack Rivers and the Meadowlands in others. Wet soil freezes and thaws every winter, pushing on basement walls and heaving shallow footings.

Local contractors handle cracked and bowing walls, settling footings, sagging beams and the drainage problems that often come with them.

How much does foundation repair cost in North Jersey?

It depends on the foundation type and how far it has moved. Crack repairs often cost a few hundred dollars, piers are usually priced per pier (commonly about $1,000–$3,000 each) and many homes need several. The contractor you are connected with gives you an exact price after inspecting your home.

Why do old stone foundations in North Jersey crack?

Mortar erodes over decades, water freezes and expands in the joints, and soil pressure pushes on the walls. Repointing, crack repair and structural support are common fixes.

Do I need a structural engineer?

Some repairs and many permits require an engineer’s report. Your contractor can tell you whether your project needs one.
