How Foundation Repair Works

San Antonio Foundation Fix takes San Antonio homeowners from a crack they are worried about to a decision they understand. Here is how an inspection is arranged, what happens at the property and what you get at the end of it.

From Inspection to Repair

1

Book an inspection

Tell us what you have noticed and roughly when it started. A photo of the worst crack and a note about which doors stick is enough for us to plan the visit properly.

2

The floor gets measured

Elevation readings are taken room by room across the house, inside and at the perimeter, so the actual shape of the floor is on paper before anything is proposed.

3

You get findings and a written quote

You are shown what was measured, what is causing it and what the options are, including doing nothing yet. Any price is in writing before you decide.

4

Work is done and the floor rechecked

If repairs go ahead, the house is measured again at the end, the site is cleared and you are told what to expect from the foundation afterwards.

Before the Appointment

Nothing needs preparing beyond clear access. If you can, note when you first saw the crack, whether it has changed and whether it looks different in summer than in winter. That history is genuinely useful and nobody but you has it.

Do not patch cracks right before an inspection. Fresh filler hides the width and direction that tell an inspector what the movement is doing. And do not attempt to jack or shim anything yourself: lifting part of a house without knowing where the loads run can crack walls and break lines under the floor.

Read the repairs we carry out, check your community on the service areas page, browse the common questions or go to the service request page when you are ready to book. If piers come up at the visit, the pier comparison explains the choice.
