Foundation and Chimney Repair in Acworth, GA

Anglin's has repaired foundations, chimneys and structural masonry across north Georgia since 1930, out of one office in Marietta. Acworth is one of the towns our crews cover, in Cobb County.

Acworth sits on Lake Acworth where the Etowah backs up behind Allatoona Dam.

Being close to the water changes the ground. Low ground near the rivers and lakes here holds water far longer than the ridges above it, and a footing that stays wet through a Georgia summer and then dries out hard in a drought is a footing that moves. Slopes running down to the water add their own problem, which is soil pressure against a wall that was never built to hold it back.

The houses we work on here run across a wide range of ages, which means we get the whole spread: original masonry and leaning chimneys on the older streets, and bowing basement walls and settling stoops in the newer subdivisions. What the two have in common is the clay underneath them.
