Strong, stable foundations built to last. Foundation installation, repair, leveling, and structural solutions for residential and commercial properties.
A solid concrete foundation is critical for any structure. Whether you're building new, repairing existing damage, or addressing settling issues, our expert team ensures your foundation provides proper support and protection for years to come.
Houston's unique soil conditions—clay-heavy soil prone to expansion and contraction—require specialized knowledge. We understand local soil conditions and design foundations to withstand Texas weather and geological challenges.

We work with all local foundation styles
Most common in Houston. Concrete slab poured directly on ground. Pros: Lower cost, simple. Cons: Prone to settling in clay soil.
Concrete piers support elevated wooden structure. Pros: Better for problem soil. Cons: More complex installation.
Concrete wall sits on piers. Popular for Houston homes. Combines benefits of both approaches.
Professional from excavation to completion

Common questions about concrete foundations
Houston's clay-heavy soil expands when wet and contracts when dry. This movement causes foundations to shift and settle unevenly. The greater the clay content and the less uniform the soil conditions, the more settling occurs. We use techniques to minimize this natural movement.
Foundation costs vary based on size, type, soil conditions, and local factors. Average residential foundation (1,500-2,000 sq ft) ranges from $12,000-$36,000 depending on type. We provide detailed cost estimates during consultation.
We provide workmanship warranties (5-10 years depending on service) and structural warranties. Our work is fully insured. We stand behind our foundations and repair any issues that arise from our work during the warranty period.
Installation typically takes 2-4 weeks from start to occupancy. This includes site prep (3-5 days), concrete work (2-3 days), curing time (7-10 days), and final inspections. Larger projects or complex conditions may require more time.
Yes! But clay soil requires specialized approaches. We use proper compaction, soil stabilization, and foundation design (stem walls or piers) that handle clay expansion/contraction. Proper engineering ensures stable, long-lasting foundations on clay soil.
We offer foundation repair using mudjacking, polyfoam injection, or hydraulic jacking. We also provide underpinning or piling to address severe settling. Each situation is unique—we assess your foundation and recommend the best solution.
