Foundation Repair in Port Arthur, TX

Review Logo 4.8 (204)

Port Arthur's clay soils, combined with its average annual precipitation of approximately 55 inches, create a challenging environment for home foundations. These clay soils are prone to significant expansion and contraction, which can lead to foundation problems for homes built on either slab or pier and beam foundations. As the soil dries out, it shrinks, creating voids that can cause your foundation to settle, while heavy rains can cause the soil to swell and exert pressure on your foundation. Foundation Support Specialists offers tailored foundation repair solutions to address these issues and restore your foundation's stability.

"I spent the time and made calls to have 6 different companies to come out. Some were higher and some were lower. Lots of research on my own to ask the right questions. One was a call with Jacob from FSS. I had the front portion of my house & garage corrected by these folks. The steps from the sales call and education of what was to be done was very friendly and informative. No pressure to close the sale, more focus on what is happening and what the future looks like. I went with the push pier system. I really liked the features this system offered. The Team that came out and did the work was quick and thorough. I spent some time watching the work and asking lots of questions, all with a great smile and engagement. Thank you to Thomas N, Kennen P, Christian G, and Kale R. 4 guys doing quick and great work. You will not be disappointed with these folks."

Types of Foundation Damage in Port Arthur

Common Causes of your Foundation Problems in Port Arthur

Soil Settlement

Shifting or sinking soil under your foundation causes uneven settling, which can lead to cracks and structural issues.

Moisture Changes

Seasonal soil changes, like expansion during wet periods and shrinking during dry spells, put stress on your foundation, leading to cracks and instability.

Tree Roots

Nearby growing tree roots can shift the soil beneath your foundation, causing cracks and uneven support.

Hydrostatic Pressure

Saturated soil creates hydrostatic pressure, pushing against foundation walls and causing cracks or bowing over time.

Plumbing Leaks

Plumbing leaks near your foundation can saturate the soil, weakening its stability and leading to foundation movement or cracks.

Temperature Changes

Freeze-thaw cycles cause the soil around your home to expand and contract, which can cause for your foundation to shift and cause damage.

Climate Conditions

Heavy rains or drought can cause soil to shift, leading to cracks and instability in your foundation. Foundation repair restores stability, protecting your home from further damage and ensuring long-term safety.
