Dallas Foundation Repair: What You Need to Know

July 14, 2019

No matter where you live, you will always have to take care of certain aspects of your home to properly maintain it – and foundations are no different. However, the location of your home may have a drastic impact on what specifically you’ll need to worry about: in California, earthquakes can cause foundations cracks and damage, whereas the Midwest may pose threats to your home’s foundation from frequent tornadoes. For those of us living in the DFW metroplex, what makes Dallas foundation repair different?

Texas Weather & Your Foundation

Texas experiences very extreme changes in climate – specifically from dry to wet. While we do not have very frigid winters, the heat of the summer combined with very heavy rainy periods can have drastic effects on your home’s foundation. This is due to expansive clay soil, on which a large number of Dallas homes are constructed. This type of soil has a lot of clay content compared to other soils which are vulnerable to moisture – this means that during dry periods the soil may contract, and during wet periods, it will expand. These changes in volume can cause cracks or upheaves in your foundation which will need to be addressed by a professional foundation contractor in Dallas. The foundation experts at HD Foundations are well-versed in how to deal with expansive clay soils and can assist with providing a foundation inspection to determine if damage already exists that needs to be dealt with. 

Know Your Home’s Foundation Type

Do you know for certain what type of foundation your home has? Whether pier & beam or slab foundation, it’s important for ongoing maintenance purposes, as well as repair, needs to know what your home is built on. Foundation damage can look very different depending on what type of foundation you have – for example, creaky or sagging floors could indicate an issue with a pier and beam foundation, whereas vertical cracks in the walls may suggest a problem with your slab foundation. 

By knowing what type of foundation you have, you can understand the specific maintenance needs to prevent foundation damage in DFW, and more effectively communicate with a foundation repair contractor to discuss necessary repairs. 

Only Trust the Best Foundation Contractors in Dallas

It is extremely important to do your due diligence when looking for a foundation contractor in Dallas. Not only should you choose a company that is highly rated on the Better Business Bureau, but also check out their customer testimonials and Google Reviews. Experiences of previous customers can provide an insight into how that company conducts business and can save you many headaches in the future. For example, see one of HD Foundations’ recent reviews:
