Structure

 

Structure – The structure and foundation of your home is the most important part of the home.  There are 4 basic types of foundations: slab, crawl space, basement, and pier foundations; each having its own unique pro’s and con’s.  

    1. Slab foundations – Slab foundations are the most common in Oklahoma; they are great because they aren’t as susceptible to mold & termites and work well in Oklahoma.  
    2. Crawl Space foundations – crawl space foundations provide great protection against water and are easier to work on.  They are typically found in older homes.  
    3. Basement foundations – basement foundations are less common in Oklahoma but great to have during tornado season.  They can provide extra space and increase the square footage of your home, although they are more expensive than other foundation types.  
    4. Pier foundations – pier foundations are used to keep home up off the ground when there is uneven ground or in areas prone to flooding.  They are not typically found in Oklahoma, but we still know how to handle them.
