Foundation Repair Services in Waco, TX

Foundation repair in Waco, TX requires more than just patching visible cracks at floor and walls. A proper repair addresses the root cause of movement, the unstable soil beneath your home, and restores the structural integrity of the foundation itself.

At G.L. Hunt, our foundation repair process starts with a thorough inspection. One of our trained specialists will evaluate your home inside and out, looking at the foundation, the interior floors, the walls, the doors and windows, and any exterior brick or siding. 

We use that information to build a repair plan that fits your specific situation, not a generic package.

Common signs that Waco homeowners need foundation repair:

• Cracks in brick, stucco, or exterior siding, especially stair-step cracks in mortar joints
• Interior drywall cracks, particularly diagonal cracks near door and window corners
• Doors or windows that stick, jam, or no longer sit square in their frames
• Floors that feel uneven, bouncy, or sloped when you walk across them
• Gaps forming between walls and ceilings, or between walls and floors
• Visible cracks in the foundation itself along the perimeter of the home

If you’ve noticed any of these in your Waco home, it’s worth having someone take a look before the problem gets worse. Call us now!

Foundation issues don’t resolve on their own, and the longer movement continues, the more costly repairs tend to become.

Other Foundation Repair Solutions We Offer

We use multiple pier systems depending on what the soil conditions and the severity of the settlement call for. Our Waco team is trained in all of the following:

• Concrete Piers: A reliable and cost-effective solution for many Waco homes. Concrete cylinders are driven deep into the soil until they reach stable ground, giving the foundation a solid point of support.
• Steel Piers: Ideal for deeper instability. Steel piers are hydraulically driven to greater depths than concrete piers, making them a strong option when looser or more shifting soils are present.
• Steel Hybrid Piers: Combine the reach of steel with the stability of a concrete bell, offering strong performance across a range of soil conditions common in Central Texas.

We also provide:

• Slab Foundation Repair
• Pier & Beam Foundation Repair
• House Leveling
• Foundation Inspections
• Foundation Monitoring

Waco Concrete Services

Foundation movement doesn’t stay under the house, and for Waco concrete, that means driveways, sidewalks, patios, garage floors, and pool decks all sit on the same shifting soil. 

The same dry-wet-dry weather cycle that affects foundations works on outdoor concrete surfaces too, and the results are hard to miss: slabs that crack, sink on one side, or develop uneven edges that become trip hazards.

Our Waco concrete services include:

• Concrete Lifting – We use polyurethane foam injection to lift sunken slabs back to their original grade. Faster, less invasive, and more cost-effective than tearing out and replacing a slab.
• Concrete Caulking – Properly sealed expansion joints prevent water from getting under your concrete and accelerating erosion of the base material.
• Concrete Sealing – A protective sealant reduces moisture infiltration, extends the life of your slab, and helps resist staining.
• Sinkhole Remediation – Voids that form beneath concrete surfaces are a serious hazard. We locate and fill them before they collapse.

FAQ

How long does foundation repair take in Waco?
Most repairs are completed in one to two days. The exact timeline depends on the number of piers required and site accessibility. We’ll give you a clear schedule before any work begins.

Do Waco homeowners’ insurance policies cover foundation repair?
It depends on your policy and the cause of damage. Sudden events may be covered; gradual soil-related settlement typically is not. We can provide documentation to support your claim if you decide to file.

Is Waco concrete lifting a permanent fix?
Polyurethane foam lifting is long-lasting, but expansive clay soils continue to move over time. We’ll give you an honest assessment of expected longevity and whether any additional measures make sense for your situation.

How do I know if my foundation needs repair or just monitoring?
That’s what the free inspection determines. Some movement stabilizes on its own; other cases need immediate attention. We’ll tell you honestly which category your home falls into and what the next step should be.
