Step 1: Thorough Foundation Inspection
Foundation repair begins with an in-depth inspection. Our team starts by assessing the entire structure, focusing on signs like sagging floors, uneven door frames, and visible gaps around windows. Unlike slab foundations, pier and beam systems often hide problems beneath the floorboards, making an expert evaluation essential.
Using digital levels and industry-grade tools, we measure elevation variations and identify problem areas. Our inspectors take time to explain their findings clearly, ensuring homeowners fully understand the scope of the damage before we proceed.
Step 2: Customized Repair Plan
After inspection, we create a customized repair plan tailored to your home’s layout and soil conditions. One of the strengths of the pier & beam foundation repair process is the flexibility it offers. Whether your home needs additional piers, replacement of damaged beams, or adjustments to existing support structures, we map out every step.
We avoid a one-size-fits-all approach. Our experience in Texas soils—including expansive clay and shifting loam—means we know how to adapt repairs to ensure your foundation remains stable year-round.
Step 3: Preparing the Work Area
Before any leveling begins, we secure the job site. That means protecting landscaping, marking underground utilities, and ensuring safe access to the crawl space. For homes with limited clearance, we may use specialized tunneling to reach problem areas without damaging interior floors or disrupting daily life.
This stage is critical in minimizing disruption to homeowners and maximizing efficiency during the repair process.
Step 4: Precision House Leveling
The core of our service is expert house leveling. Using hydraulic jacks, our crew carefully lifts the structure back to its original elevation. We make slow, calculated adjustments to avoid unnecessary stress on the frame. Once the desired level is achieved, we install new concrete or steel piers as needed to support the structure permanently.
Throughout this stage, we prioritize structural integrity and alignment. We do not cut corners—our goal is to restore balance and extend the life of your home.
Step 5: Structural Reinforcement
As part of the leveling process, we often reinforce or replace joists, sills, and girders that may have suffered from water damage, termite exposure, or general wear. In some cases, adding moisture barriers or drainage improvements helps prevent future settling or movement.
This is where many companies fall short. FNF Foundation ensures that every element beneath your floor is secure and optimized for long-term performance.
Step 6: Final Inspection and Clean-Up
Once leveling and reinforcement are complete, we conduct a final inspection to confirm stability. Our team rechecks elevations, verifies that doors and windows function correctly, and ensures all repairs meet building codes and client expectations.
Then, we clean up the site thoroughly—no tools left behind, no debris, no surprises. We treat every home with the care and respect it deserves.
