Foundation repair company in North Richland Hills, TX
Mid-Cities Slabs Have Been Through a Lot
Sixty years of wet springs and hard summers leaves a mark.
North Richland Hills grew up in the sixties and seventies, and a lot of those original slabs are still carrying houses today. We work on them every week.
North Richland Hills soil and slab settlement
Older Slabs on Expansive Clay
Thin slabs from that era show movement first.
Mid-century construction here used thinner slabs and lighter reinforcement than a builder would pour today. Put that over expansive clay and decades of seasonal swing and settlement shows up on the brick.
Established neighborhoods have big trees close to the house. A mature oak pulls a serious amount of water out of clay during a dry stretch and the ground shrinks with it.
We survey the floor before we recommend anything. Some of these homes need a pier line. Some need a root barrier, a downspout, and a watering routine.

The Work We Do in North Richland Hills
Steel and concrete piers
Settlement gets piers driven to soil that will actually carry the load. Steel where depth or load calls for it, concrete where conditions allow.
Drainage corrections
French drains, downspout extensions, and regrading so the soil around the slab stops swinging between soaked and bone dry.
Concrete leveling
Sunken driveways, walks, and patios are usually a washed-out soil problem, not a structural one, and they cost a lot less to fix.
Pier and beam repairs
Block piers, beam replacement, and shim work under crawl space homes to put the floor back where it belongs.

North Richland Hills foundation repair questions
Straight Answers
If your question is not here, call and ask. You will get a person who has been under houses, not a script.
My house is from the seventies. Is settlement inevitable?
Not inevitable, but common. Older slabs on North Texas clay have been through a lot of cycles. What matters is how far it has moved and whether it is still moving, and that is a measurement.
Should I remove the tree next to my foundation?
Usually not the first move. Root barriers and consistent watering solve a lot of tree-related movement without taking down a fifty year old oak.
How much does foundation repair cost in North Richland Hills?
Pier count, depth, and access drive it. We measure the house and price the scope we can actually see.
Do you handle permits?
Yes. Structural repair here is permitted work and typically involves an engineer's plan. We walk you through it before the crew shows up.
