- WHAT ARE THE SIGNS OF SINKHOLE DEVELOPMENT?
The signs that a sinkhole may be developing are similar to other common signs of foundation failure. If you are able to catch a developing sinkhole before it collapses, you may be able to save yourself a world of trouble. Keep an eye out for the following issues:
Cracks - Every home impacted by sinkhole activity shows cracking. The cracks will be in the walls, floors, or ceiling either on the interior or exterior of the home.
Sloping Floors - Sinkhole activity causes one part of your home to sink or drop slightly lower than the other part.
Floor Cracks - Floor tiles are often the first part of a home to show sinkhole activity. Tiles that become loose or pop up can be a sign of sinkhole activity.
Interior Wall Separation - Look for interior walls separating from the ceiling.
Window and Door Frame Cracks - Cracks that form in the corner areas of doors or window frames indicate that this area is structurally weak.
Nail Popping - If drywall nails are popping out or pushing through, it could be a sign of sinkhole activity.
Sticking Doors and Windows - If doors or windows stick or get stuck, this can be due to weak parts of a wall and show signs of stress and cracking.
Higher Water and Power Bills - Sinkhole activity can cause a structure to shift. Even a slight shift to the foundation can cause a home to lose some of its energy efficiency.
Ground Surface - If you notice holes, depressions, dead spots, or very soft soil in the ground surface, it could be a sign of sinkhole activity
Leaning Fence - If you notice that your fence is leaning or dipping, it could be sinkhole activity.
Driveway Cracks - Normal driveways will often be level or slightly sloped towards the street. If there is a dramatic slope or has patches or holes in it, this may indicate sinkhole activity.
If we are able to spot a sinkhole before it becomes a real issue, we can take steps to stabilize the soil around the area and prevent any real damage.
Sounds super expensive
@@titanman8302 to save a house and avoid a 300k loss, it would be low cost. At least get the right insurance for where you buy. It's usually the second house purchase that homeowners are happy with, unfortunately.
In the Netherlands before we build a hous we first slam conrete piles deep into the ground. Solved! 😌👍
And you can bet it costs a pretty penny to have this done, too! Some have had to remortgage their house in order to save their home(s)!
It all looks very expensive. Maybe better to move to more stable ground.
So avoid big parts of Florida, Texas, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama...
Why did I watch this whole thing?!

guaranteed this would cost a min. of $50k.
her tone is all wrong here, condescending instead of friendly
There's a time for every purpose, as an apocalypse gives its way to stabilities, capabilities and certainties. To clean the waters as the waters cover the sea, to gather and collect stones together. Planted by the waters by the word. Thy words are life. KJV 1611. Book of life. Realization of Foundations, in all foundations, as the chief cornerstone is the creator, guarantor and warrantor.
You're only allowed to say stuff like that if you're wearing a kilt that has pleats at the back.
