Foundation Repair, by Type
Each service below has its own page with signs, methods and typical price ranges.
- Foundation repair. The broad fix for a house that has settled or heaved, usually with steel or concrete piers, shims and changes to drainage.
- Slab foundation repair. Work on slab-on-grade homes, common in newer subdivisions, where edges and corners tend to drop as clay dries out.
- Pier and beam foundation repair. If your home sits on piers and beams, this covers crawl space shims, new piers and fixes for rotted sills or beams.
- Foundation crack repair. Epoxy or polyurethane sealing and injection, after the specialist checks whether the crack is a sign of movement.
- House leveling. Raising low spots so floors sit closer to level, ideally paired with drainage work so the clay stays more even.
Not Sure Which Repair You Need?
Most people start with a symptom, not a service name. A sticking door, a zigzag crack in the brick or a floor that tilts could fit two or three of the services above. That is normal, and you do not have to sort it out on your own.
Our warning signs quiz asks five questions and suggests how serious things look. The cost calculator gives a rough pier-based range from your house size. Neither one replaces a visit, but both help you describe the problem clearly when you send a request.
It also helps to know your foundation type. A house with a crawl space door or vents along its base most likely sits on piers and beams. A house whose floor rests right on the ground, with no space underneath, most likely sits on a slab.
