Age of Home: 15 years
Problem: Concrete Front Porch has fallen about an inch where it touches the house.
Evaluation: Porch is setting on a short wall foundation on the outer edge. Porch was not tied to foundation via steel reinforcement bar nor was it set on top of the foundation edge. Backfill from the foundation construction has settled from its own weight. This is causing the porch to sag from its own weight.
