Fall is the perfect opportunity to seal and repair a foundation since this is best accomplished as you prepare for the upcoming winter weather. It is not a good idea to try and repair a foundation after moisture has already caused damage or in the middle of a deep freeze. Poor conditions can result in substandard repairs, which will consequently leave your property vulnerable to more damage. Don’t let a little problem become a big one!
As structural maintenance is the owner’s obligation— this includes the foundation of the property— this task should not be delegated to your residents. Even good residents may neglect routine maintenance on occasion, and inadequate sealing and repairs can lead to more expensive repair costs down the road.
As long as you know how to seal the cracks in the foundation properly and remember to do it regularly and at the appropriate time of year, you can do the repairs by yourself. However, the reality is that foundation maintenance is a task that is easily overlooked, particularly if you already have a full plate. Furthermore, spending your time trying to seal the foundation of your rental property, especially if you’ve never done it before, might not be the most cost-effective use of your day. Your best route is still to hire an expert to take care of it for you, guaranteeing that the task is done correctly and in a timely manner.
