Our reputation is based on service, safety, and quality, regardless of how large, or small, the job.

"Job was to repair or replace some rotted wood and chewed fascia boards under gutter where roof level changed. Siegert construction did the work. James Siegert estimated the work and came out to house twice to discuss what was needed and take some photos. He offered good recommendations and options and truly listened to what I wanted. He brought a crew of 4 or 5 who worked very well together and finished the job quickly and efficiently. It certainly helps to have the right tools and experience, and this is what they brought. I appreciated that Siegert Construction was willing to do a small or large job."

"The job went well. Dale showed up on time and was very professional. We had been having issues with the time it took the water to heat up in the home so we had him take a look at possible causes. Dale cycled water through all the faucets to understand our concern and found the issue by the heater. Apparently the heater was set to a timer which was turned off. Afterwards he performed the cleaning of the heater which went fine."

"Doug Hensarling/ASIM has maintained numerous systems for me over the past 10+ years, both residential and commercial and has done a good job on them all. This is the first time that I was actually able to use him for a completely new system and he did a great job. He was easy to deal with for scheduling, and his crew showed up to do the work when he said they would. Doug was on-site every day to manage his crew and get the job done efficiently. He’s extremely customer focused and he worked hard to make sure that I knew what was going on throughout the whole process. One of the tasks involved with a new system installation is interfacing with the County Health Dept. and their inspectors. An application has to be submitted to the county prior to construction along with a soil analysis and a complete set of plans detailing the location of the tanks and the septic field relative to the building and property lines. Doug took soil samples from several potential locations, then came back and helped me choose the best location based on the site and soil analysis. Once that was determined, he was able to complete the design and submit the application for me. Doug knows the process and the relevant regulations so he handled all of this for me which 1) took away the burden of having to deal with a gov’t agency I’m unfamiliar with and 2) gave me peace of mind knowing that it would be done right. The inspector I spoke with during one of the various observations told me that Doug is one of the best contractors they deal with. Once we got to the actual installation, it went smoothly. The weather has to be considered when doing this kind of work and once it’s started, it has to get done as quickly as possible otherwise you end up with a real mess. They dug the hole and got the tanks set all in the same day. Connection to the building and septic field layout took a couple more days and the final day was for clean up and testing. Overall, they were only onsite for a week and made short work of a pretty large job. As I said earlier, I’ve worked with Doug for over 10 years now and he’s always done me right. He answers calls and texts at all hours and has never let me down when I had an issue or needed help. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for system maintenance as well as someone who needs a new system."

One of the core values of Ram Jack, a family-owned business, is quality first. To achieve the highest quality, we embarked on a research and development program to produce a repair system that would stand the test of time. From the first phone call until the final inspection on a completed job, Ram Jack’s professionals are pledged to providing the most outstanding service. When a technician comes to your home, you should expect him or her to collect a large amount of data. An expert foundation repair specialist will discuss your areas of concern and perform an evaluation both inside and outside your home to get a full picture of the underlying issues concerning your foundation failure. We will provide you with a wide range of options necessary to repair residential or commercial structures from the various problems caused by clay soils prevalent throughout the U.S. A “Commitment to Excellence” based on strict quality control procedures is incorporated into all aspects of the day-to-day operations. We have the experience to guarantee our work with a Lifetime Transferable Warranty which is backed by the strength of Ram Jack Texas and the Ram Jack Dealers Association National Limited Warranty Trust, meaning you have access to warranty repairs, if they should arise, regardless of the status of your installing Ram Jack dealer. That’s peace of mind. *Real Estate transactions may be subject to a fee.

"Be aware of the warranty fraud and bad advertising. The advertising says they stand behind the structure. We have a wall that is in the middle of the area they raised and they did not put piers in the wall. This was a miss on the engineers part that should have had piers. The new engineer that came out said he wasn't the initial engineer and wasn't responsible for the miss. The new engineer said that they only warranty the pier and not the structure of the area the pier is in. (miss advertising). We would have had no problem purchasing additional piers at the time they were installed. Now they want to sell additional piers to fix there miss which is wrong. Be very aware that once they sell you piers if you have any issues in the area they fix is to sell more piers instead of standing behind the structure they fixed."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Drilled wells have a pipe sticking up that’s covered in a plastic or metal casing. On the other hand, a dug well will look like a big hole in the ground and is more similar to what you’d see in a fantasy or Western movie. If you want to be sure, contact the city for documentation on your property’s construction and excavation history. 

It is a common belief that excavation is easier or less costly when done in the summer or when the ground is not frozen. Seasons have little effect on when excavation can occur; however, inclement weather can prolong the duration of the job and potentially increase costs. For this reason, those in rainy climates may opt for seasons with milder weather.

Completion time ranges from days to weeks, contingent on project size, environmental conditions, and regulatory approvals.

If you’re planning to dig on your property, you’ll need to check for underground utility lines. Call the national call-before-you-dig 811 number. Once connected to an operator, you can schedule a site visit to mark underground lines. This way, you won’t accidentally dig into pipes and can cause major (read: costly) issues.

As a general rule, the protected area should be about 1½ times as wide as the canopy of the tree’s leaves. This digging measurement can vary by tree species and the age of the tree. Of course, that can be a lot of fencing for larger trees, which is why our first step is about making difficult decisions on which trees to save.
