New Construction
Building on Central Texas's expansive clay soil calls for foundation planning that accounts for long-term soil movement from the start, not just at repair time.
Plan for the soil before you pour
Central Texas's expansive clay soil affects new construction just as much as older homes. Foundation problems are far cheaper to prevent at the planning stage than to fix after the fact.
We evaluate site and soil conditions up front and help plan foundation and drainage decisions that account for how the ground here actually behaves, not a generic national approach.
What to expect, start to finish
A clear path from first look to finished repair.
Site evaluation
Soil and drainage conditions are assessed before the pour.
Foundation planning
Foundation type and reinforcement are matched to soil behavior.
Drainage planning
Grading and drainage are designed in from the start.
Coordination
We work alongside your builder through the foundation phase.
Sign-off
Documentation is provided for the completed foundation work.
"The mistake people make is treating a symptom as the problem. We diagnose why a foundation moved before we decide how to stabilize it, then stand behind the work with a warranty tied to what the piers actually reached."
The difference is in the diagnosis
Get several quotes and you'll see a wide range of prices. The gap isn't luck, it's whether the contractor finds the actual cause and stands behind the work.
