Fixing structural damage quickly is vital to the safety of your family due to the increased risk of collapse. Other reasons to quickly address structural issues include:

• Curb appeal: Structural issues often cause other cosmetic issues, like wall cracks, throughout your home.
• Door & window operation: Sticking doors and windows are a common symptom of structural damage. Sometimes, damage can escalate to the point where your door sits off kilter and no longer locks properly.
• Health-related consequences: Structural damage often means water damage which leads to mold and mildew. If you or a family member in the home suffer from asthma or another respiratory illness, you may experience heightened symptoms as humid, contaminated air infiltrates your home.
• Resale value: In the event you decide to move and sell your home, structural damage will need to be fixed. Left unattended, your home is likely to sit on the market for a while, and it definitely won’t be purchased at full value.
• Worsening issues: Structural damage doesn’t fix itself, and it will only get worse with time. Addressing issues as soon as you uncover them is the only way to stop the progression of structural issues.
