One of the biggest problems people face is the pipes. If they are affected, it is advisable to call a plumbing service. They check whether the pipes are in good condition so that there is no risk of leakage. You should also inspect some areas of the wall where pipes or AC units may have had to be moved for repairs. Call a painter and decorator to handle that.

When inspecting your walls, you will find that repair leads to other minor complications here and there. Cracks in the drywall may be visible, plumbing may be tampered with, and in some cases, doors may not close properly. This is usually caused when settling occurs. Most of these emerging issues will resolve themselves as the house settles down, but there are minors who may not. This means that some repairs will be needed a few months after the foundation repair.
