Will: Hello everyone. My name is Will. I'm here with Paul for New England FoundationCrack Repair. We're going to talk to you a little bit about lally columns today. We have agreat example here that we want to talk to you about. Paul's going to explain to you alittle bit about it.
Paul: Okay, here's a lally column that is considered no good anymore. This lally column would not pass inspection. Now, what's going on here is this condensation from underneath the floor, rusting a ring around the bottom of the lally column. When that happens, it loses 40% of its strength, which causes it to sag under the carrying beam.That's when your floors upstairs will become bouncy, could even warp, which becomes a very expensive repair. So replacing these lally columns before the issue happens is the best idea, especially if you';re thinking about selling a property. Give us a call at NewEngland Foundation Crack Repair. We'll be happy to handle the situation for you.
