Soil
The main factor that can often contribute to you requiring a house leveling is the soil underneath your foundation. This is because this is what causes your foundation to settle and sink, lowering your home and creating problems. The soil beneath your foundation can be washed away, whether by water from leaking pipes or another source, or dry out and lose moisture, both of which can contribute to your foundation settling more than it should. This can lead to a range of problems. House leveling is a way to correct many of these problems and prevent further damage.
Damage
House leveling is a foundation repair method that can be used to help your home avoid damage, or further damage. Settling, and other problems that require house leveling to solve, can cause quite serious damage to your home if left unchecked, including structural problems. The most common form of damage that occurs is cracks, often in your walls and ceilings, and this can often be the first sign that you have a problem.

Settling Problems
The main reason that you might need to consider house leveling is to deal with any settling problems that you might have. Concrete slab foundations in particular can be prone to this problem. This is when your foundation sinks further into the soil than it should, and your home begins to sink as a result. House leveling is way to correct any settling problems that your foundation might have, and to make sure no structural damage or further cracking happens at your home. Settling problems will only get worse with further time, so house leveling is the best option in the long run.
