Foundation Repair Company Serving Homeowners in Dallas, TX
Sometimes, a stubborn window is just a stubborn window—but not always. If your home’s other windows and doors also become hard to close, your floor starts to sag, and you’ve noticed cracks in your walls, you may have a foundation problem. In the Dallas, Texas, area, foundation failure is not uncommon. Our region’s clay-like soil expands when water is present and shrinks when dry, leading to unstable foundations. As an unstable foundation shifts, it can distort the shape of your window and door frames and put uneven pressure on walls and support beams. Over time, an unstable foundation can lead to major structural damage to the home. If you’re worried that you have a foundation issue, Ecoscape Foundation & Home Services can help. Founded in 1995, we are a foundation repair company that offers Dallas homeowners affordable solutions.
We Will Restore the Integrity of Your Home’s Foundation
When you reach out to us, we will come to your home to assess the situation and recommend the most appropriate repair. Our skilled technicians have extensive experience in several types of foundation repair, including:
- Slab repair – If there are cracks in a slab foundation, they can usually be fixed by filling the crack and applying a waterproof masonry sealer. Hydraulic cement, epoxies, silicone, and polyurethane are some of the most popular sealers used for small cracks.
- Pier installation – This is the most common concrete foundation repair method in the Dallas, TX, area and also the most cost-effective. Designed specifically for use in our area’s expansive clay soils, belled piers provide the best value for your money.
- Steel pier installation – We install steel piers by inserting hollow steel pipes into the ground so that they overlap to create a single continuous pier. Once the drilled pier is installed, our team places a steel plate on top to achieve a strong surface to level any structure.
- Helical pier installation – Also known as anchors, helical piers are ideal for repairing lightweight slab foundations and pier and beam foundations. Helical piers are also used to secure new foundations.
- Mud jacking – This slab-lifting repair entails pumping a “mud” solution under a home’s slab foundation to fill cavities left by the shifting soil. As the solution cures and hardens, it lifts the sunken slab back into place.
Prompt Service
We are known for our quick turnarounds. Unlike other companies that take several weeks to schedule a foundation repair, we can start the work within a week and can complete the project within one to three days. To provide you with further peace of mind, we back our repairs with a lifetime transferable warranty.
Drainage Solutions
Soil oversaturation can also lead to foundation instability, and poor drainage is a major cause of oversaturation. To fix drainage issues and protect foundations, we can install:
- French drains – These systems collect groundwater to minimize ground saturation. French drains are ideal solutions for many homeowners because they provide consistent drainage.
- Sump pumps – A sump pump is a specialized pump designed to reduce below-ground saturation. We install them in the ground at a place where water commonly pools so that the pump can direct water away from the home.
- Seamless gutters – Gutters protect foundations by preventing water from pooling on the ground around. They also protect landscaping by minimizing erosion.
