Services
Foundation Repair
Our foundation repair service addresses soil-related structural issues using pressure pile piers driven to maximum depth for optimal stability. We diagnose cracks, door misalignment, and floor slopes caused by soil movement. Our patented system includes lifetime warranties and preventive solutions like root barriers to ensure long-term foundation integrity.
House Leveling
Specialized house leveling for block-and-pad, pier-and-beam, and stilt homes restores structural integrity through precise elevation adjustments. Our process includes floor joist replacement, sub-flooring repair, and comprehensive drainage planning to correct sloping floors and prevent future settlement issues.
Pre-Buy Evaluation
Digital elevation analysis and visual inspection identify foundation movement indicators for prospective homebuyers. We document cracks, door/window misalignments, and soil conditions while providing repair cost estimates and preventive maintenance recommendations to support informed purchasing decisions.
Concrete Leveling
Concrete leveling raises settled slabs using high-density polyurethane foam injection. This minimally invasive solution addresses uneven sidewalks, driveways, and patios by filling voids beneath surfaces. The process restores proper drainage and eliminates trip hazards while being 30-50% more cost-effective than full replacement.
Root Barriers
Root barrier installation prevents tree root intrusion into foundation soils using high-density plastic membranes. We strategically place barriers between trees and structures to maintain consistent soil moisture levels, reducing expansion-related foundation stress while preserving landscape aesthetics.
