Structural Repair in Metro Atlanta
Structural repair fixes the parts of a house that carry its weight, including the foundation, floor joists, beams, sill plates and load-bearing walls, so the home stays level, safe and sound. Catching problems early usually means a smaller, less costly repair. JMJ Construction Group handles structural and foundation repairs across metro Atlanta, from a single rotted sill to sagging floors across a crawl space.
A crack or a soft spot is a symptom. Before we quote a fix, we look for the cause, whether it's water, soil movement, undersized framing or past termite damage. Larger structural repairs need a permit, and some need an engineered plan, so we tell you up front what your repair requires. We also build new foundations; see our foundation contractor page.

Signs Your Home Needs Structural Repair
Most structural problems give warning signs long before they become serious. Call for an inspection if you notice any of these.
- Floors that slope, bounce or feel soft underfoot
- Doors and windows that stick or won't latch
- Diagonal cracks in drywall above doors and windows
- Stair-step cracks in brick or block foundation walls
- Soft, crumbling wood around sills, door frames or the crawl space

Structural Repair Questions, Answered
Are cracks in my foundation serious?
Not always. Thin vertical cracks in poured concrete are common as it cures and settles. Cracks that are wide, growing, stair-stepped through block or brick, or paired with sticking doors and sloping floors point to movement that needs a closer look. We'll inspect it and tell you whether it needs repair or just monitoring.
How much does foundation repair cost?
It depends on the cause and the extent of the damage. Sealing and reinforcing a single crack costs far less than replacing piers or beams under a whole floor. We inspect first, explain what's causing the problem and give you a free, itemized estimate.
Can sagging floors be fixed?
Yes, in most homes. The fix depends on the cause: sistering cracked joists, adding a beam to shorten long spans, or replacing sunken piers. Floors are raised gradually so the drywall, tile and trim above have a chance to adjust.
Do structural repairs need a permit?
Many do, especially work on foundations, beams and load-bearing walls. Some repairs also need plans from a structural engineer. Requirements depend on your city or county, and we'll tell you what your repair needs before we start.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. JMJ Construction Group holds Georgia GC license GCI000260 and carries liability coverage through Next Insurance, with proof available before work begins.
Do you offer free estimates?
Always. We'll inspect the problem, explain what we find and provide a detailed written estimate at no cost and no obligation.
