How does weather affect Alvin foundations?

Hot humid summers and hurricane moisture can cause concrete movement in homes throughout the city.

Will leveling damage my interior finishes?

Leveling stops further movement, but existing cracks are usually sealed separately once the home is stable.

House Leveling in Alvin, TX

When a House Needs Leveling

House leveling corrects uneven floors that come from foundation settlement. Signs include floors that slope or feel bouncy, doors and windows that stick, gaps at trim and cracks in drywall or brick. In Texas, these problems usually trace back to expansive clay that moves with the weather, or to moisture problems around the foundation.
