WHAT IS A SLAB FOUNDATION?
A slab foundation is a flat concrete structure. They are designed to have a grade beam around the perimeter of the slab and, depending on the age and size of the home, it might also have grade beams throughout the interior of the slab in a checkerboard type layout.
Concrete slab foundations are generally poured directly onto the ground and do not have crawl spaces under them.
HOW DOES SLAB FOUNDATION REPAIR WORK?
There are various methods of foundation repair for concrete slab foundations. Our #dirtnerds measure elevation differences throughout your home to determine where the problem areas are.
Once they take the measurements, our team will carefully and thoroughly evaluate your home’s landscaping, drainage, and soil under the property to help determine a plan of repair and maintenance suited to your needs and budget.

- Piers (type of pier depends on the soil and budget)

Foundation repair is less intrusive than it seems. In most cases, foundation can be repaired through tunnels dug around the perimeter of the property. Our team will come out, tunnel outside of your property, go under it to fix the foundation, then close the tunnel back up. You won’t even remember we were there.
