When thinking about what part of the house protects you the most, a lot of people will always think of the roof first or the thick walls. While both of these do an exceptional job sheltering you from the outside world, they would be nothing without one often overlooked aspect. The foundation. Without a solid base, even the best walls and roofs won’t be able to keep you safe.
But why is a solid foundation so important? Read on to find out.
A foundation's number one job is to support your home. Without a foundation, your home would sink into the ground, resulting in cracks and damage to it. If it sank far enough, it could even be unliveable. A properly built foundation will keep the home supported and level, even in the case of a natural disaster such as a flood or earthquake. To do this the foundation must be properly tailored to your site, taking into account soil conditions, space, geology and more.
The world around us is constantly in flux, but a foundation must be never changing in the face of any shifts in the planet. This can include soil moisture levels changing, tectonic plates moving, water tables altering or temperature change impacts. A solid foundation will anchor your premises against any natural forces. If it is not properly anchored, your premises could start to crack, break or even be washed away by adverse natural elements.
A good foundation has great insulation properties, so will help you save on your heating bill in the winter if it is solid. A lot of heating is lost through the floor/basement, but a great foundation will help reduce this. Along with keeping heat inside, it helps to keep moisture out. Moisture can weaken the structure of your home, as water can quickly saturate the soil around your house and put pressure on your home. But a solid foundation combined with good drainage can help keep water out of your property and prevent any structural issues.
