Houston Clay Soil and Foundations
The expansive clay soil throughout Harris and Fort Bend County expands when wet and shrinks when dry. This seasonal movement is the primary cause of foundation settlement and cracking in Katy-area homes.
Warning Signs of Foundation Problems
Doors and windows that stick, diagonal cracks in drywall, gaps between walls and ceilings, sloping floors, and exterior brick cracks all indicate potential foundation movement that warrants inspection.
Foundation Repair Methods
Pier installation is the most common solution for settled foundations in the Houston area. Steel or concrete piers are driven to stable soil or bedrock to permanently lift and stabilize affected sections.
Drainage and Prevention
Proper drainage around your home reduces soil moisture fluctuation and extends the effectiveness of foundation repairs. We assess drainage as part of every foundation evaluation.
Warranty and Long-Term Support
Foundation repairs backed by transferable warranties provide peace of mind and protect resale value. We stand behind our work with industry-standard repair warranties.
