Every foundation repair contractor in Dallas County, Ellis County and Collin County
Around the centre of Dallas, 15 of the 22 soil readings in a sample sat on soil rated high or very high for shrink-swell. That is the ground behind foundation repair in Dallas. This page covers 33 businesses: 31 in Dallas County, 1 in Ellis County and 1 in Collin County. Ferris, a smaller town, shares the page.
The sample took 25 points in an area about 5 miles across. One fell on water and 2 fell on urban land with no soil reading. Of the 22 with a reading, 6 were in the very high class. Austin was the commonest soil series, at 5 points, then Houston Black at 4 points and Silstid at 3 points. Clay in those classes swells when it gets wet and shrinks when it dries, which lifts and drops slabs and piers. It reads the ground near the centre and nothing more specific.
In the same sample, 5 of 24 land points sit inside the FEMA floodplain, the zone with a one-in-a-hundred chance of flooding in any year. Each homeowner can pull up FEMA's flood map for the address. Standing water near a foundation keeps the clay under it wet, so drainage work often travels with the repair. Smart Foundation Repair Dallas installs French drains and sump pumps. Universal Foundation Experts does gutters and downspouts, French drains and root barriers.
The median home in Dallas was built in 1980. Of every hundred homes, 22.5 date from before 1960 and 34.0 from 1990 or later. Older Texas homes are more often pier and beam and newer ones more often slab, a general pattern the census does not record. Du-West Foundation Repair works on pier and beam and block and base homes. SOS Foundation Repair covers pier replacement, beam reinforcement and moisture control. Brown Foundation Repair has served Dallas since 1963 and does crawl space inspection and adjustment, mono posts and support pads.
