The first and most common signs are the cracks on the exterior of your property. The most common of these is what is called a "stairstep" crack. This cracks clearly shows that the foundation's capacity to hold the structure is currently failing. Upon seeing this type of damage it is wise to call your insurance company to have them come out and investigate.

The second most common type of damage is located on the interior of your property. This type of damage shows up either in the walls where there are windows or doors or where there is some type of opening present. See picture for further explaination.

The last type of damage that is readily visible is a physical depression. Depressions can come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes there is no mistake about what it is and sometimes it just looks like an animal hole.
