Foundation Repair in Milwaukee, WI

Milwaukee is the largest city in our service area and the county seat of Milwaukee County, and it has the oldest and most varied housing stock of any community we serve. Its residential neighborhoods are full of early-1900s bungalows, duplexes, and solid brick homes built for the city's industrial workforce, with basements that have been in the ground for a century or more. Those old block and stone basements, with their original clay drain tile, are deep into the problems that age and Wisconsin clay bring.

We don't claim to cover every Milwaukee neighborhood by name — it's a big city. But the basement problems here follow a clear pattern: aging block walls bowing under saturated clay, settling where soil has washed out from under footings, drain tile that silted up decades ago, and sump pumps and backups that long since stopped keeping up. The brick bungalows and duplexes that define so much of Milwaukee's housing have full basements that take the brunt of every freeze-thaw cycle and every summer storm.
