Foundation and Chimney Repair in Cartersville, GA

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

Cartersville is the seat of Bartow County and sits west of the Cartersville Fault, on valley limestone rather than Piedmont granite.

Ground here is not the same as most of Metro Atlanta. West of the Cartersville Fault the region sits on valley limestone and dolomite rather than the weathered granite of the Piedmont, and rock that dissolves behaves differently underneath a footing than rock that simply weathers. We look at what the ground is doing before we price a repair, because the fix follows the diagnosis rather than the crack.

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.
