The Future of Foundation Health and Waterproofing
In this episode of Solid Ground, the team at Aspen Foundation Repairs uncovers the terrifying reality of home ownership: 60% of homes develop dangerous foundation cracks within their first decade. But it isn't all bad news. We are diving into the 2026 technology revolution that is turning homes into "smart structures."From carbon fiber reinforcements that are ten times stronger than steel to "bio-concrete" that heals itself using beneficial bacteria, we discuss how the industry has shifted from reactive repairs to proactive prevention. Learn the red flags every homeowner needs to know, the true cost of waiting, and how tiny sensors are acting as a "fitness tracker" for your basement.
