What are the symptoms of sinking piers that I should be looking out for?

Cracking Gyprock Walls

Sinking floors & piers don’t tend to crack masonry walls. But if you see cracked Gyprock walls, there’s a strong chance that you have unevenly sinking floor piers under your home. This is because when floor piers sink, they do so at different rates. This forces uneven pressure into the structure, causing weaker walls to crack.

Objects Move on the Floor

One of the easiest ways to tell if you have sinking piers is to place a ball on the floor. Floor piers sink at different rates, causing sloping, uneven floors throughout your entire home. So if you watch the ball roll away from you on its own, it’s likely you’re dealing with sinking floor piers.

Internal Doors Jam

Doors aren’t built to get stuck. It’s only through the shifting of walls and floors over time that this will start to happen. If you notice the bottom of a door is jamming against the floor when it’s opened, then it’s very likely the that floor is suffering from a sinking pier.

You Feel a Dip When you Walk

Some floor piers will sink faster and deeper than others. This causes your floor to slant. In some cases, these physical slants aren’t obvious. But if you and your family can feel or even see it, then you definitely need to get your floor piers inspected.

Rattling Furniture

When furniture is sitting on an uneven floor, the feet are unable to make a level connection. This causes them to move and rattle when used. Cupboard doors may rattle when you open them. Couch legs may rattle when you sit at one end. All of this points to your floorboards failing due to sinking floor piers.

Ceiling Cracks & Falling Cornice

With some floor piers sinking deeper than others, large forces are exerted on the floor of your home. These forces travel up the walls and into the ceiling, causing cracks to appear. Sometimes, this will also cause ornamental cornices to crack and fall from ceiling corners.

Why does it matter?

Sinking floor piers can impact your home dramatically.

When your floor piers sink, they exert significant stress on the entire structure of your home, affecting the floors, walls, ceiling, and even the roof.

If the sinking of floor piers isn’t addressed, it can lead to escalating structural problems such as increasingly sloping floors, ultimately compromising the safety and habitability of your home.
