Generally when a house is sinking, the problem can be traced to a weak foundation. One can improve foundation problems by hiring a specialist or installing subterranean concrete beneath the house to raise it. The problem may also be poor soil quality, in which research should be done before repairing the foundation.

How do you correct a sagging floor in house?

Once the cause of the sag is properly addressed you can level the low spot using self-leveling floor patch as long as you follow the manufacturer's directions. = = == There are several factors that need to be addressed before suggesting a repair. How old is the house? Does it have a full basement? Which floor level of the house, i.e. first, second..? What are the flooring materials and floor sheathing? Can one ascertain what created the sag? What would you like for a finished floor after the sag is corrected? Once these questions are answered you can begin to develop a scope of work. Most importantly is fixing whatever created the sag in the first place. This can be relatively simple to very complex and invasive. Having a trusted carpenter look at the problem is the easiest answer I can give.
