"Ty Lewis Excavation saved the day for me. I needed 5 tons of gravel to be evenly spread across my newly built carport on short notice and Ty Lewis did not disappoint.

He was not only professional and excellent communicator, but he was courteous and so very polite...truly a joy to work with him."

When it comes to foundation repair in Oklahoma City, leave it to the experts at PowerLift Foundation Repair. Our professional services include foundation repair for residential and commercial properties with the use of our patented PowerLift System. The system is an industry-leading process where it raises and stabilizes structures so we can correct the foundation problem. In addition to our advanced techniques, you will get the best customer service experience possible as we take great pride in our work and our ability to make you happy. Being a local to Oklahoma City foundation repair company, we serve many areas in and around Oklahoma City which include communities like Mustang, The Village, Nichols Hills, Bethany, Midwest City, Edmond, Moore, Shawnee, Norman, Yukon, El Reno, Piedmont, Guthrie, Chandler and more.

"Powerlift came highly recommended from a colleague. However, our experience was much less than desirable. Steve came out and gave us a quote --he was very personable and polite. When the crews arrived and began their work, apparently there was some "extra" work that needed to be completed before they could continue. This extra work almost doubled the already extremely high price --from around $18K to $32K. We were told that the cracks in the bricks might not appear differently and that we would need to have them repaired but with the piers we should have no further issues. BTW -- the landscaping was a mess! Bushes were left unplanted and concrete piles were randomly distributed around our property --super messy! We did hire a mason to repair all of the cracks outside and a contractor made repairs in our sheetrock. Today, you cannot even tell that we spent 32K to get things fixed. We have cracks in our brick exterior and cracks in our sheetrock. Steve did come back (twice) and each time makes some excuse of what is happening but of course, it is not due to the work that they did. :( I am totally disappointed every single time I walk out of my front door. I would not recommend."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Digging a bush up by the roots is the most natural DIY method for removing a bush stump. Start by identifying the shrub type and revealing its roots. Cut the shrub to its base and loosen the soil, ensuring no utility lines are nearby. Optionally, treat the base with herbicide, then dig around the roots and cut a circle around the shrub using various tools. Dig a trench, cut the base of the root ball, and finally fill the hole to prevent regrowth. This thorough process ensures complete removal without damaging surrounding areas.

Professionals who complete perc tests can usually do them in a single day. Including excavating to expose the test site, filling the hole with water, and monitoring it while it drains, you can expect the test to take between four and eight hours total. It’s possible that you’ll get the results the same day, but some companies may take a few days to get official results.

Yes. A metal detector is one of the quickest and easiest ways to find your septic tank. However, metal detectors can be too expensive (costing upward of $300 in some cases), and not everyone has a metal detector just lying around. If that’s the case for you, you can also take a long metal rod and poke it into the ground at regular intervals until you hit something—likely your septic tank lid.

Silt fences should be trenched 8 to 12 inches deep to prevent sediment-filled water from escaping underneath. It also helps to anchor the fence during wet, windy weather. The silt fence fabric often has a red line to indicate the depth for digging. A good contractor will be familiar with the guidelines and regulations.

Yes, professional installations include trenching or borehole drilling required for ground loops.
