What weather factors most affect foundations in Killeen?

Hot summers followed by thunderstorms cause repeated soil expansion and contraction that stresses slabs in neighborhoods throughout the city.

Which Killeen areas see the most slab repair requests?

Homes along US-190, near I-14, and in Copperas Cove frequently need attention due to local soil and drainage patterns.

How do I know if a foundation crack is serious?

Cracks wider than a quarter inch, stair-step patterns in brick, cracks that keep growing or leak, and cracks with sticking doors or sloping floors should be inspected.

Can cracks be repaired from inside the home?

Many slab and wall cracks can be injected from the interior, which avoids digging up the yard.

Will repaired cracks come back?

They can if the soil or foundation keeps moving. That is why we look at the cause as well as the crack.

Which Foundation Cracks Matter
