Common Foundation Problems in Florida

Florida's unique geology creates several foundation challenges:

  • Sinkhole activity — Florida leads the nation in sinkholes, especially in the I-4 corridor
  • Settling and shifting — Sandy soil and high water tables cause uneven settling
  • Concrete slab cracks — Florida's heat expansion and contraction create cracks
  • Pier and beam deterioration — Moisture and termites attack older foundations
  • Soil erosion — Heavy Florida rains wash away the soil supporting your foundation

Signs of foundation problems include sticking doors and windows, cracks in walls or floors, uneven floors, gaps around window frames, and visible exterior cracks.

Foundation Repair Costs in Florida

Repair costs depend on the type and severity:

Repair TypeTypical Cost
Minor crack repair$500-$3,000
Piering/underpinning$10,000-$30,000
Slabjacking/mudjacking$5,000-$15,000
