About Florence Park Foundations
Florence Park is a charming midtown Tulsa neighborhood of primarily 1930s to 1950s bungalows and small ranch homes. Nearly all homes here sit on pier and beam foundations with crawl spaces. The neighborhood's housing stock is remarkably consistent in age and construction type, which means the foundation challenges are predictable: decades of crawl space moisture exposure, wood deterioration from Oklahoma humidity, and pier settlement from clay soil movement. Florence Park's relatively small lot sizes mean homes sit close together, and drainage from one property can affect the foundation of the next. Many Florence Park homes have original wood-framed crawl space vents that have deteriorated, allowing moisture, pests, and debris to enter the crawl space unchecked.
Common Foundation Issues in Florence Park
Florence Park homeowners frequently report bouncy or sagging floors from deteriorated joists, musty odors from crawl space mold, settled piers causing door frames to rack out of square, original wood crawl space vents that have rotted away, standing water in the crawl space after spring rains, and exterior brick cracks on homes with brick veneer over the wood frame.
