My house was recently built, 5-7 years ago, should I expect my contractor to reinforce my homes foundation prior to my Hardscape installation due to continual settlement issues?
Yes. If your house has been constructed within the past 7 years, there is a good chance that a 4′ x 4′ zone surrounding the homes foundation may add to continual settlement of the existing soils or a new Hardscape installation. The area can be reinforced in a number of ways, but must be addressed prior to Hardscape construction beginning. Please download our recommended engineering solution in PDF format.
