OUR PROCESS
Our goal is to help you avoid costly foundation repairs by properly maintaining your foundation and the soil underneath. We accomplish this with The Foundation Guys 3 step process.
1. EVALUATE
First, we do a baseline assessment of your foundation using a high precision altimeter. This will clearly identify any areas of heaving or settlement in your foundation. We then document any visible evidence of settlement or foundation cracking with photos. We also evaluate the water management system including gutters, grading and drainage. If your home is in need of a mechanical lift to bring it into alignment, we will recommend one of our partners to assist you.
2. INSTALL
We install our Foundation Shield subsurface moisture control system that is tailored to the needs of your foundation. Our installation process guarantees that your soil will be maintained at the proper moisture level which ensures that the foundation is adequately supported. A typical installation covers from one side of the driveway around the house to the other side of the driveway.
3. MAINTAIN
We are committed to helping you avoid costly foundation repairs. We accomplish this by continuing to monitor and assist you with proper foundation maintenance. During our scheduled follow-up visits we check for proper soil moisture, make necessary adjustments and maintain the system during the changing seasons. At the end of the year, we fully winterize the system and in the spring we return to get everything ready for another hot Texas summer.
