Austin sits right on the Balcones Fault Zone, meaning your home might be sitting on shifting limestone ledges or unstable clay. This geological divide causes differential settling that cracks slabs across Travis and Williamson counties.
Our Austin team specializes in installing steel and concrete piers that penetrate past these active soil layers to reach solid bearing strata, securing your home whether you're in the hills of Westlake or the clay of Pflugerville.



All slab pier systems follow the same core method.
Here’s exactly what to expect:
Site Preparation: We protect your property by laying plastic or plywood in work areas and carefully removing nearby plants. This keeps the job clean and prevents damage.
Create Access Openings: We break through concrete or paving to create access holes—about doormat-size—at predetermined locations along the foundation beam.
Drive Pilings (Press Piers): Using hydraulic equipment, we press concrete cylinders or steel pipe sections into the ground to the required depth and resistance. This creates a stable footing beneath the foundation.
Set Piling Caps: A piling cap is placed on the last driven piling to distribute load and provide a solid seat for lifting.
Raise the Foundation: Hydraulic jacks sit on the caps and carefully lift the lowest areas. We level the structure as close to original elevations as conditions allow, monitoring elevations at multiple reference points.
Insert Steel Shims: After lifting, we install steel spacers/shims between the foundation beam and cylinders to lock the elevation and deliver long-term support.
Cleanup & Restoration: Heavy lifting—literally—is done. We replant, fill holes, patch concrete breakouts, and remove all job residue. You’ll find your property looking better than ever.
Texas-specific expertise: We work every day in Central & South Texas soil conditions.
Engineered methods: Proper resistance levels, verified elevations, and industry-standard materials.
Straight talk: Clear scope, clear pricing, no fluff.
Respect for your property: Protection, restoration, and thorough cleanup.
