About Kendall-Whittier Foundations
Kendall-Whittier is one of Tulsa's oldest residential neighborhoods, with homes dating back to the 1910s when the area developed around the Whittier Square commercial district. The housing stock is predominantly small to mid-size bungalows and cottages on pier and beam foundations. Many of these homes were built as worker housing during Tulsa's early oil boom, with simpler construction than the grander homes in neighboring Maple Ridge. That simpler construction means smaller beams, fewer piers, and less robust crawl space design. After more than a century of Oklahoma weather, these homes carry accumulated structural stress. Kendall-Whittier has seen significant reinvestment in recent years, and many buyers are renovating these homes, which often uncovers foundation issues that were hidden behind cosmetic updates.
Common Foundation Issues in Kendall-Whittier
Kendall-Whittier homeowners commonly encounter severe crawl space moisture from decades of deferred maintenance, undersized beams and joists that were marginal when originally installed, pier settlement causing pronounced floor slopes, wood rot and termite damage in structural members, foundation issues discovered during renovation of recently purchased homes, and inadequate original pier spacing that allows excessive floor deflection.
