Structural foundation cracks threaten your building’s structural integrity. Diagonal, vertical, and horizontal cracks on the foundation lead to long-term structural and foundation damage and deterioration. Foundation cracks are usually caused by the following:
If you don’t fix your bowing walls on time, they will eventually collapse, increasing the cost of repairs. In most cases, bowing walls are the result of structural failure or poor structural design. They are caused by excessive soil pressure, hydrostatic pressure, uneven flooring, bulging walls, and cracks in floors and walls.
Here, we’ve listed the primary causes of foundation failure or problems in Shawnee homes:
Sometimes, foundation problems occur due to faulty or poor construction. Improper treatment of the soil during construction can lead to shifting, settling, and cracking of the foundation. Inadequate materials or uneven concrete slabs can also lead to foundation issues over time.
The absorption of water or the weight of the house can cause the soil under your foundation to shift over time. Clay soil, in particular, expands when it absorbs water and shrinks when it dries out. This movement can destabilize a foundation and lead to water damage. If the soil was loose when the foundation was built, the foundation may settle more than is healthy. All of this can lead to foundation issues.
Moisture in the soil around your foundation can put pressure on the walls, leading to cracking and bowing. Water penetrating the walls can also cause leaks, flooding, and mold. If you notice signs of water damage, have experts inspect your basement and recommend solutions such as drainage solutions or sealant. Excess moisture leads to issues such as:
Different houses have different foundation problems, so we will inspect your foundation and provide you with a customized solution. Our team will ensure that your house’s foundation is restored to its original condition.
Wall anchoring is an effective solution for bowing basement walls. Wall anchors stabilize and even straighten walls by restoring lateral strength and resisting the pressure of the surrounding soil. An anchor is installed in the ground near your home and attached to an anchor on your basement walls with rods.
Some of the benefits of wall anchoring include:
Our team prevents water penetration into your house with basement waterproofing. Our RapidFlow drain system protects your basement walls and foundation by efficiently evacuating water. This system can handle 30% more water than most other drainage systems on the market.
Some of the benefits of basement waterproofing include:
Polyfill, also known as the polyurethane foam injection method, is a process that repairs your foundation with minimal disturbance. This method is suitable for foundations that have sunk or settled. It is economical and quick compared to other traditional methods and reliable.
Some of the benefits of Polyfill include:
A sump pump evacuates water from your basement to drainage away from your foundation. The pump forces out the water to avoid mold growth, water damage, and flooding. It automatically detects the level of rising water and redirects it to keep your foundation safe from water issues.
Some of the benefits of a sump pump include:

Everyone I’ve interacted with from KC Waterproofing has been a delight. Friendly, professional and hardworking - from our Foundation Specialist Patrick to every member of Schylur’s crew who completed the work. Their clear communication with me throughout the course of the project was very appreciated. The crew clearly enjoys working together as well as the work they are doing, which gives me full confidence in the caliber of the end result. I would contract them again without reservation and happily recommend them to anyone in need of crawl space waterproofing services.
Connor and his crew did an excellent job fixing our foundation. I can't believe they finish it in 5 days. Hardworking and professional crew. I would recommend them to anybody. Even clean up the basement really well.
Connor and his crew did an excellent job fixing our foundation. They finish it in 5 days and we love the result. Left our basement spotless as well. Would recommend them to anybody.
Mario serviced my sump pump today and did a good job. He also replaced tape on my wall shield. He provided excellent customer service and was willing ti come out any time needed or said to call him anytime if I had any questions.
Great price, great work! In just 3 days, Jesse’s team added two sump pumps and over 40’ feet of channeling with the full wall systems. No more towels, fans, and dehumidifier after every big rain storm!
KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair has taken incredible care of my home through multiple visits. Gary and Davan handled my initial sump pump installation and crack repairs, and they were not only skilled but genuinely thoughtful throughout the process. We had a bit of early miscommunication, and instead of brushing it aside, they listened, acknowledged what happened, and adjusted the plan so everything aligned with what I needed. They brought me in at every step—walking me through pump location options, explaining the exit pipe decisions, and making sure I felt confident about the work being done. Their friendliness and respect made a stressful repair feel manageable. Later on, I had some cracks that needed to be reassessed, and Mario came out to take a look. He was incredibly kind, patient, and thorough, and he did an amazing job with the additional repairs. His calm, reassuring approach made me feel completely taken care of. I also want to highlight Don, the manager, who is just as kind and committed to making sure customers feel heard and supported. It’s clear this team truly values doing right by people. I’m grateful for their care and would absolutely recommend them for any foundation repair or waterproofing needs.
I am extremely grateful for the amazing work done by Gerry Reynolds and his crew at KC Water Proofing! They did an amazing job installing a drainage system, sub pump, and wall wrap. I would recommend them to anyone needing peace of mind in water proofing their sub basement. Thank you for the hard work!
Excellent service and work! I’ve worked with KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair twice now (for foundation work and most recently window well/waterproofing work). I have been satisfied with their work both times. Always easy to schedule and Recently Riley helped with a quote and was not pushy about moving forward; which was my experience a few years ago too. They don’t take up hours of time to give a quote which I appreciate. The team that did the recent work (main contact was Schuyler) were easy to work with and talk too, very kind. You can tell this group of people works together and works together well. They had a lot of hand digging and they did it very quickly. When an unexpected issue arose (removing some sidewalk) Schuyler laid out the what/why/how plainly in an easy to understand way. They did replace the sidewalk concrete. It was a big job and they got it done in a day and a half and were in high spirits throughout. They cleaned up a lot after the project too, which is appreciated. Schuyler did a final walk-through and answered any questions I had. Pricing was good too, I got another quote that was astronomical for pricing and the other company wasted 3 hours of my time to provide a quote. If I need anything in the future I won’t bother with a second quote as I’ve always had excellent experiences with KC Waterproofing. The support staff is very kind and helpful too, as well as prompt. Overall, excellent experiences; highly recommend!
We had a leak in what we thought was our foundation. Water coming in under our basement floor. Francis Heisinger came and checked it out for us. He could have recommended a French drain that would entail digging, pipes, removing and replacing concrete and lots of money. Being the honest man that he is, he gave us his opinion as to what the problem entailed. Thank you so very much. Should we ever need foundation work done, we will definitely use this company!
