How does river flooding affect slab foundations in Seguin?

Water from the Guadalupe River can saturate soil under slabs in neighborhoods like Lake McQueeney, causing uneven movement that slab repair corrects by stabilizing the base.

Do older homes in Downtown Seguin need special foundation work?

Many historic structures have original slabs that shift with local clay soils, and targeted repairs restore support while preserving the character of the neighborhood.

What happens during a foundation inspection?

We check cracks, door and window operation and floor elevations, and review drainage and moisture around the home. Then we explain what we found.

How do I know if I need a foundation inspection?

Cracks in drywall, brick or the slab, sticking doors and windows, sloping floors and gaps at trim are common reasons. A home purchase with foundation concerns is another.

Will an inspection tell me what repair costs?

If repair is needed, you receive a written scope and an upfront quote. If it is not, we tell you.
