[LM_NET] OT: Foundation Work (SE Kansas only)

[Deborah Maehs <Maehsville@AOL.COM>]

I would like to correspond with those of you who  live in the southeast
region of Kansas (specifically the Winfield or Burden  area) and who have used
companies who do foundation work in that areas.

    My family owns property in that region of  Kansas.  Back in the 1960's,
my grandparents had a free-standing, double  car garage constructed of native
rock and stone from the farm.  In the last  year, we have noticed cracks that
are developing due to the shifting of the  earth as well as temperature
extremes.  As a result, the casings for the  garage doors do not fit properly now.
There are other problems that are  developing as a result of these cracks.

    I know from my research that there are different  types of foundation
systems that work better than others for different regions  of the United States.
 That's why I would like to visit with those of you  who have actually had
work done to see what works best.  Please respond to  me privately off-list at
my home e-mail address listed below.  Thanks for  your help and advice with
this matter.
