Protect Your Home's Foundation This Winter in Northern Virginia
As the temperatures begin to drop in Northern Virginia, it's crucial for homeowners to focus on their home's foundation health. While many enjoy the cooler weather, your foundation could be at risk of damage. NV Waterproofing is here to ensure your home remains safe and sturdy throughout the colder months.
Understanding Cold Weather Effects on Foundations
Cold weather can significantly impact your foundation. Just four to five consecutive days of temperatures around 40 degrees or lower can cause problems. Here's how:
- Soil Contraction and Expansion: When temperatures drop, the soil contracts and then expands as it warms. This cycle can exert pressure on your foundation, leading to cracks.
- Fluctuating Temperatures: This fall, we've experienced varied temperatures, making foundations more susceptible to damage.
Why Foundation Health Matters
Cracks in your foundation are a leading cause of basement leaks. Addressing these issues before winter hits is essential to prevent water damage and maintain your home's structural integrity.
