Get to Know Dallas’s Soils
Dallas County has as many soils as Willie Nelson has albums. There are Prairie Land soils, Houston Black, Austin Chalk, Eagle Ford Shale, among others. The type of foundation repair we can do on your property will be heavily based on where in Dallas County you are.
Central Dallas County is underpinned by Austin Chalk, easily recognizable by its bright white appearance and steep relief. The soils produced by this soil series typically comprise a shallow horizon due to the chalk’s resistance to weathering.
Eastern Dallas County sits on the Ozan Marl which produces particularly tricky soils that shrink, swell, and move water differently. Because of this unique soil geology, your property’s foundation is susceptible to failure.
If piers are required in an area with rocky soils, like the Austin Chalk, the best solution will likely be steel piers because concrete pressed pilings cannot go deep enough in these types of soil. But if you are somewhere that has a softer soil, like the Ozan soil series, then you can do concrete pressed piers.
Regardless of the soil type underneath your home or commercial property, recognizing the signs of a foundation failure as soon as possible can save you thousands of dollars.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes foundation issues in Dallas?
Dallas has a wide variety of soils that are very intermixed. Most of Dallas is on top of highly expansive clay soils that heave or contract easily. This along with the arid climate and propensity to drought means foundation issues are very common.
For how long do I have to move out for foundation repair?
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.
