Built For The Demands Of Commercial Properties
Foundation movement, uneven concrete and uncontrolled water can affect how a commercial property operates. The consequences may surface through tenant complaints, inaccessible walkways, misaligned build-outs, interrupted production or recurring repairs that never address the underlying issue.
G.L. Hunt Commercial provides foundation, concrete, drainage and crawl space services across Texas. With in-house engineering, self-performing field crews and one point of contact, we can support an individual property or coordinate work across a statewide portfolio.
Commercial Properties Require A Commercial Approach
Commercial work involves more than selecting a repair method. The plan may need to account for occupied spaces, public access, operating schedules, engineering requirements and multiple layers of approval.
Depending on the property, that can mean working around tenants and customer traffic, phasing access across active buildings, scheduling after-hours or keeping documentation consistent across multiple locations.
G.L. Hunt Commercial brings assessment, engineering, project coordination and field execution together under one company. We do not subcontract the core foundation, concrete, drainage and crawl space work that bears our name.
Commercial Foundation And Property Services
The commercial division addresses structural, concrete, drainage and access concerns across a range of properties. Each page below provides more detail about a specific area of work.
Foundation Repair And Slab Support
When floors fall out of elevation, finishes separate, or an inspection flags movement, the foundation page covers pier systems, building leveling, and how repairs get engineered. (We don’t install helical piers — that page explains our policy.)
Tunneling And Under-Slab Access
Tunneling may provide access beneath occupied slabs for pier installation and other approved under-slab work.
Concrete And Slab Leveling
Settled parking panels, dock approaches, and warehouse slabs can often be lifted through foam injection instead of replaced. The leveling page covers each use case.
Drainage Solutions
When water keeps collecting near a structure, the drainage page explains how we trace where it starts, where it goes, and what stops it.
Sewer Line Repair And Hydrostatic Testing
Commercial sewer line repair and hydrostatic testing may be relevant when leakage or an under-slab plumbing concern is suspected.
Emergency And After-Hours Response
Some structural, concrete or drainage concerns cannot wait for a convenient opening in the property’s schedule. G.L. Hunt can coordinate after-hours or weekend work for occupied commercial properties when project conditions call for it.
Commercial Concrete Repair
Commercial concrete repair addresses cracks, failed joints, caulking, sealing, sinkhole remediation and broader surface restoration for sidewalks, patios and other exterior concrete.
For settled slabs that need to be lifted through polyurethane foam injection, see our concrete and slab leveling service.
Crawl Space Remediation
Commercial crawl space remediation may involve vapor barriers, dehumidification, structural support and work addressing mold, mildew, water or pest damage.
Root Barriers
Root barriers may be considered when tree growth near foundations, pavement or other improvements is contributing to a property concern.
Pre-Purchase Foundation Inspections
A foundation inspection can provide additional information before a commercial acquisition, renovation or redevelopment. Findings may help buyers and asset teams better understand visible movement, elevation concerns and conditions that may warrant further evaluation.
Commercial Support By Property Type
The same physical issue can affect each property differently. G.L. Hunt Commercial adjusts the assessment and repair plan around the building’s use, access requirements and operating demands.
Commercial Real Estate And Managed Properties
Support for individual assets, multifamily communities, self-storage facilities and larger portfolios where access, communication and recurring property needs must be coordinated carefully.
Healthcare, Hospitality And Customer-Facing Properties
Phased planning for hospitals, senior living communities, hotels, venues, retailers and restaurants where safety, occupancy and business hours influence the work.
Industrial And Distribution Facilities
Foundation, concrete and drainage support for warehouses, production sites, loading areas and truck courts affected by heavy loads, settlement or water movement.
Builders And General Contractors
Structural pier work, post-closing foundation repairs, drainage corrections and concrete services coordinated around construction schedules.
One Point Of Contact For Statewide Portfolios
When several locations are affected, consistency in assessment, documentation and communication becomes part of the work.
G.L. Hunt Commercial supports multi-property owners and operators through one point of contact. Our statewide presence allows regional and corporate teams to coordinate work across Texas without rebuilding the process with a different provider in every market.
Portfolio coordination may include:
- Assessments across multiple properties
- Prioritization based on condition and operational impact
- Consistent reporting and communication
- Scheduling by property, region or project phase
- Coordination with corporate and on-site personnel
- Clear communication throughout the program
