[QUOTE="DPI, post: 1581913, member: 793"] The pictures appear to be the footing, as mentioned above support the entire weight of the house. My first thought is the footing does not appear to be below the frost line, which is usually a depth of 12" minimum, but more likely 18". If the footing is not below the frost line it will move with the freezing/unfreezing of the ground and will definitely cause problems. Can you see the footing all around the house? [/QUOTE]
