On Episode 3 of ‘On Solid Ground,’ we welcomed David Grindley from Grindley Engineering onto our podcast. The main focus of this episode was about foundation issues that arose from the impact of Hurricane Ian and Nicole. This included discussions about what type of foundation issues David’s team were seeing, what someone should do when they notice their foundation is damaged, how long it takes to repair a home’s foundation, what people can do to protect their foundation during bad weather, along with much more. Our goal was to inform the consumer about the importance of a home’s foundation and what they can do to protect it, especially during storms of this magnitude.
