Post Falls has a significant number of homes built in the 1970s and 1980s with block foundations. Many of those foundations are now showing cracking and mortar decay from decades of soil movement and moisture. Early repair prevents the kind of structural failure that turns a manageable project into a major expense. Learn about our foundation repair service.
Post Falls sits along the Spokane River and has varied topography with plenty of lots that slope toward drainage channels. Retaining walls are a practical necessity on many residential properties here, not just an aesthetic choice.
Mortar joint decay is common in Post Falls brick homes and commercial buildings after years of freeze-thaw cycles. Tuckpointing before joints fail completely keeps water out and extends the life of the wall by decades.
Spalled, cracked, and shifted bricks are a common issue in Post Falls properties that were built with lower-grade brick or that have experienced significant weather exposure. Replacing damaged units restores the wall's water resistance and structural continuity.
New block walls for property division, privacy screening, or structural support are a common request in Post Falls. We build them to handle the local soil movement and drainage conditions rather than just meeting minimum specifications.
Post Falls homeowners are increasingly replacing cracked asphalt or plain concrete driveways with paver systems that handle frost heave better, look better, and can be individually replaced if damaged without redoing the entire surface.
Post Falls grew rapidly from a small mill town into one of Kootenai County's largest cities over the last few decades. That growth means the housing stock spans a wide range of construction eras, from mid-20th-century homes near the historic downtown to newer subdivisions built during the 1990s and 2000s construction boom. Homes built in the 1970s and 1980s - a large portion of Post Falls' residential inventory - used concrete block foundations that are now at the age where mortar joints and surface block units typically begin to fail. The combination of normal aging and North Idaho's winter conditions accelerates that process.
Post Falls also sits in a valley along the Spokane River where drainage patterns vary significantly across the city. Lots near the river and along the lower terraces can experience hydrostatic pressure against foundation walls during spring snowmelt, while properties on the higher benches deal more with expansive soils that shift with seasonal moisture changes. Neither condition is unusual, but both require a masonry contractor who understands how to assess drainage as part of any foundation or retaining wall project - not just patch the visible damage.
Our crew works in Post Falls regularly and pulls permits from the City of Post Falls Community Development Department when structural masonry projects require them. We are familiar with the city's permit process and timeline, which helps keep projects on schedule for homeowners who need work completed before a specific date.
Post Falls is a city that has grown around its highway and commercial corridors - Seltice Way and Highway 41 are the main arteries - while the residential neighborhoods spread out across the surrounding benchlands and river terraces. The older neighborhoods near the Post Falls Historic District and the areas around the falls themselves have a mix of early brick commercial buildings and older residential construction that requires careful, preservation-minded repair work. Newer subdivisions in the Courcelles and Prairie Falls areas are a different challenge: newer construction with landscaping walls, paver driveways, and retaining walls that need maintenance as they approach the 15- to 20-year mark.

(208) 415-4190Post Falls is the second-largest city in Kootenai County with a population of over 40,000, sitting along the Spokane River just west of Coeur d'Alene. The city takes its name from the falls on the river, which were the site of a historic mill operation in the late 19th century. Modern Post Falls has grown substantially since the 1990s and is now a significant commercial and residential hub in the Idaho Panhandle, with major retail corridors along Seltice Way and strong residential growth in multiple directions.
The residential neighborhoods in Post Falls range from older homes near the historic downtown and the Spokane River corridor to large planned subdivisions built during the 2000s growth wave. The city's proximity to the Idaho-Washington border means many residents commute toward Spokane, and the housing market reflects a mix of longtime Idaho families and newer arrivals who wanted more space than greater Spokane could offer. Both the Rathdrum area to the north and the Spokane Valley corridor to the west are natural extensions of the Post Falls community that we serve regularly.
