Foundation repair from folks who live here.

What we do

What we can fix for you

Slabs, pier and beam, cracks, drainage. If it holds your house up, or moves water away from it, it is our kind of work.

Foundation Repair

Piers under the parts that sank, a careful lift, and readings afterward so you can see the floor came back.

Crack Repair

First we find out why the crack opened. Then we stop the movement, and seal it up pretty.

Signs your house is asking for help

Houses in Burleson talk, if you know how to listen. Here is what ours say before the problem gets expensive.

  • ✓ Stair-step cracks in the brick outside
  • ✓ Doors that stick, or swing shut on their own
  • ✓ Cracks fanning out from window corners
  • ✓ Floors that dip or feel bouncy underfoot
  • ✓ Gaps where the wall meets the ceiling
  • ✓ Garage floor cracks that keep growing

Any one of these can be nothing at all. A few together usually means the soil moved. The check is free, and if your house is fine, we will be the first to tell you.

The local dirt

The dirt under Burleson has a mind of its own

Our black clay is famous for it. It swells when it rains and shrinks in the dry months, and it never moves evenly, which is when houses start to complain.

Wet months

The clay soaks up the rain, swells, and nudges the slab up at the edges. Doors that stuck all summer free themselves.

Dry months

The same clay dries out, shrinks back and pulls away from the slab, and the corners settle down into the gap it leaves.

What we do

We set piers below the layer that moves, so the seasons can do what they want and the house stays put through all of it.

How it works

Start to finish, neighbor to neighbor

1

We come out and measure

A full elevation survey of your floors, free, with the readings written down for you to keep.

2

We show you the numbers

What moved, how far, and what we would do about it, with one written price and no pressure.

3

We fix it and prove it

Piers in, house lifted, and a second survey afterward so you can compare the readings yourself.

4

We stand behind it

A lifetime warranty that stays with the house and transfers free when you sell it.

When you call, we answer.

There is no marketplace in the middle and no stranger showing up in an unmarked truck. You call Chisholm Trail, and Chisholm Trail comes out. That is the whole arrangement.

We work where we live

Good questions

Things neighbors ask us

What will it cost me? +

That depends on how many piers your house needs, and we will not guess at it over the phone. The evaluation is free, and you get one written price before any work begins.

What if my house does not need piers? +

Then we shake your hand and tell you so. We would rather you call us first the next time, and tell your neighbors why you did.

How long will you be at my house? +

Most jobs run one to three days, and you do not have to move out while we work. We leave the yard the way we found it, minus the holes, which we fill.

Does the warranty pass to the next owner? +

It does, at no charge. The warranty stays with the house, and we keep your pier map and readings on file for the day you sell.

Could it just be a drainage problem? +

Plenty of times, yes. If water is the trouble, a french drain is the fix, and it costs far less than piers. We check where the water goes on every visit.
