Benefits of Concrete Foundations

When selecting between types of foundations you would like for your new home, you often come across several types of concrete foundations. What’s the benefit of choosing one over the other? There are a few aspects one should look into when selecting between different foundations. Poured concrete foundations are typically found in a majority of homes and buildings. They offer concrete contractors with stronger, drier, and better material to work with. They also offer better performance that block walls simply can’t match at a reasonable price. The lack of needing to repair your foundation leaves room for the homeowner to improve other areas of the home.

Maintenance Free

Virtually no maintenance needs to be performed on poured concrete foundations due to its resistance to rot and decay. They have a longer life span compared to block walls. Homeowners do not have to concern themselves with maintenance issues that other types of foundations eventually require.

STrength

Poured concrete foundations have an exceptional amount of strength, making it the preferred choice of homeowners. They have a compressive and flexural strong point beyond that of concrete block, exceeding the mandatory safety requirements. Poured concrete walls are exceptionally stable, providing the home with an increased sustenance and firmness. Unlike other types of foundations they do not shift with the movement of soil beneath the house. Due to its durability poured concrete is the most commonly used building material for a foundation.

Protection

Increased strength, density, and joint-free construction of poured concrete walls dramatically reduce basement water problems and prevent possible leakage. Compared to hollow core concrete block solid poured walls protect against wall shift much better. Since poured concrete walls are also fire resistant, it somewhat helps contain the fire.
