Foundation Leveling
Expert foundation leveling using hydraulic piers, steel pilings, and advanced lifting to restore proper level and prevent settling.
Professional Foundation Leveling & Stabilization
Foundation settlement and unlevel floors are among the most common foundation problems in Amarillo and the Texas Panhandle. When your foundation settles unevenly, it creates serious structural issues that affect your entire home. Doors and windows become difficult to open and close, floors slope noticeably, and cracks appear in walls and ceilings. If left unaddressed, foundation settlement can lead to major structural damage.
The expansive clay soil in our region is the primary cause of foundation settlement. During dry periods, the clay shrinks and pulls away from the foundation, creating voids beneath your home. When heavy rains occur, the soil expands unevenly, causing differential settlement. This constant cycle of expansion and contraction creates uneven foundation support that leads to settling and structural problems.
Our professional foundation leveling services restore your home to its proper level and provide permanent stabilization to prevent future settlement. We use advanced hydraulic lifting techniques and install deep foundation piers that transfer your home's weight to stable soil or bedrock below the problematic clay layer.
Signs Your Foundation Needs Leveling
- Visibly sloping or uneven floors
- Doors that swing open or closed on their own
- Windows and doors that stick or won't close properly
- Large cracks in interior walls, especially near doors and windows
- Gaps between walls and ceiling or floor
- Cracks in exterior brick or masonry
- Separation between walls and chimney
- Cabinets or counters pulling away from walls
- Tile or hardwood floor cracks
- Visible foundation settlement on one side of the home
If you notice any of these warning signs, it's important to have your foundation inspected by a professional as soon as possible. The sooner settlement issues are addressed, the less extensive and expensive the repairs typically are.
Our Foundation Leveling Methods
Steel Pier Installation
We install steel piers deep into the ground until they reach stable soil or bedrock. Hydraulic jacks lift your foundation back to level, and the weight is transferred to the piers for permanent support. Steel piering is our most robust, long-lasting leveling solution.
Pressed Concrete Pilings
Concrete piers are hydraulically pressed into load-bearing soil beneath your foundation. This method provides excellent support for foundation leveling and is effective for a wide range of settlement issues.
Helical Pier Systems
Helical piers are screwed deep into the soil like large screws. They're ideal for lighter structural loads and situations where installation must be completed with minimal disruption. Helical piers provide immediate load-bearing capacity.
Polyurethane Foam Injection
For minor settlement and void filling, we inject high-density polyurethane foam beneath the foundation. The foam expands to fill voids and gently lifts settled areas. This method is fast, minimally invasive, and highly effective for appropriate situations.
The Foundation Leveling Process
Comprehensive Foundation Assessment
We use laser levels and specialized equipment to measure floor elevations throughout your home. This creates an accurate map of foundation settlement and helps us determine the extent of leveling needed.
Pier Installation
We strategically install foundation piers at locations determined by our engineering assessment. Piers are driven or pressed deep into stable soil to provide permanent support for your foundation.
Hydraulic Lifting
Using synchronized hydraulic jacks, we carefully lift your foundation back to its proper level. This is a gradual, controlled process that minimizes stress on your home's structure.
Final Verification & Warranty
After leveling is complete, we verify floor elevations to ensure proper leveling has been achieved. We provide you with before and after measurements and comprehensive warranty documentation.
