We lift your concrete using quality, USA made polyurethane foam. First, small holes—about the size of a nickel—are drilled through the slab. The foam is then injected into the holes. The foam expands, filling voids in the soil and lifting the concrete. Additional foam is expertly injected as needed, to create an even and level surface. Finally, the holes are patched, giving your slab a smooth surface.
The main problems you should be concerned with are interior drywall cracks that are larger than hairline size, exterior cracks in the mortar and bricks, separation around door and window frames and doors that stick or don’t latch properly.
The best foundation maintenance includes consistent soil moisture, proper drainage, functioning gutters, and grading that slopes away from your home. Avoid overwatering and watch for soil pulling away from the slab during droughts. Regular inspections help catch problems early, especially in the shifting soils of DFW.
Yes. Trees and shrubs in North Texas compete heavily for moisture and can dry out the soil near your foundation, causing settlement. Proper watering and strategic landscaping can help you reduce root-related foundation movement.
Yes — Atlas offers a Lifetime Free Adjustment Warranty on pilings we install. This warranty is fully transferable to future homeowners, adding long-term value and peace of mind for buyers and sellers in the Fort Worth and Dallas market.
Delaying repairs can lead to worsening structural settlement, larger cracks, uneven floors, and even plumbing problems beneath the slab. Early intervention keeps repair costs lower and protects your home’s value. The longer you wait, the more extensive—and expensive—the damage can become.
No. Nearly all foundation repairs in DFW homes are completed while the homeowner remains on-site. You may notice some noise or vibration during the lifting process, but the work is safe and contained to the exterior.
Pricing depends on the number of piers required, soil conditions, and how much settlement has occurred. Some homes need minor adjustments, while others require more extensive stabilization. Atlas provides clear, upfront pricing after a thorough evaluation so there are no surprises.
Our inspections include measuring floor elevations, checking interior and exterior cracks, evaluating doors and windows, and examining the perimeter of the home. We show homeowners exactly what we find and explain whether foundation repair is necessary. Our approach is educational—not sales-driven.
Homeowners insurance rarely covers foundation settlement caused by soil movement, which is common in Texas. However, damage resulting from sudden and accidental plumbing leaks may be covered depending on your policy. We can help you determine whether your situation might qualify.
