PROFESSIONAL SLAB FOUNDATION REPAIR EXPERTS
WHAT IS SLAB FOUNDATION?
Most Texas homeowners opt for slab foundations because they perform especially well in warmer climates. In fact, most Texas homes built in the last 50 years were constructed on a slab foundation. Unfortunately, homes built on this kind of foundation may struggle with problems like sloping floors, leaks, and cracks in the walls as they shift and settle. These serious issues will occur more frequently in upcoming years as the climate continues to shift and Texas starts to experience colder winters.
Many homes and businesses in North Texas will need a slab repair at some point due to the area’s climate conditions. Slab foundation is made of thick concrete, which is typically placed over a layer of sand that helps with drainage run-off.
This cutting-edge foundation system has become a top-choice for Texas homeowners in recent years, but like any foundation, it has some risks. As concrete slab foundations settle, certain environmental factors can cause cracks and sloping floors. Homes in Texas are oftentimes built on expansive clay soil, making them particularly susceptible to the effects of droughts and excessive moisture.
