◉ Fixing Uneven Foundations: Home Leveling Explained

We use cutting-edge foundation leveling methods, including:
➤ Hydraulic support systems: Raising and securing homes with hydraulic systems
➤ Concrete piers: Reinforcing the foundation with sturdy piers to correct sinking areas

◉ Pier & Beam Foundation Repair: A Specialized Approach
Many homes in San Antonio, TX have pier & beam foundations, which are prone to water damage and structural weakening. Unlike solid slab foundations, these systems feature an open crawl area, making them exposed to soil instability and decay.
Our customized pier and beam repairs services include:
➤ Swapping out deteriorated beams to reinforce the foundation
➤ Aligning pier structures to level and reinforce the foundation
➤ Improving drainage systems to keep water under slab tunneling from accumulating under the home
By repairing pier and beam problems early, homeowners can avoid expensive future repairs while preserving the longevity of their homes.
◉ Under Slab Tunneling: A Non-Intrusive Repair Solution

The process involves:
