"The team leader, Steven and his crew are true professionals and second to none! When they arrived Steven took the time to explain the process for the repair and ensured that I clearly understood how it was going to be accomplished. I'm very impressed with the communication between Steven and his crew, each team member is very skilled in their craft. Upon completion of the repair, Steven walked around to ensure I was completely satisfied with the workmanship. They left the area around my home spotless! I would recommend Baird Foundation Repair to family and friends! If anyone has a requirement for Foundation Repair I highly recommend giving Baird Foundation a call. Thanks again to Steven, his team and Baird Foundation for the outstanding work!"
"I found a good sized crack in my floor when I pulled up the carpet for new flooring. I called Herculese Foundation out of Austin and made an appointment. They were very professional. and the came and checked the foundation with a meter and even with the crack there was only about an 1/8 of an inch difference in the in the corners of the house. I was very relived that I was not facing a large repair bill and now I continue with installing new flooring."

"Foundation was repaired and leveled, but the person who came out to give the quote indicated that the skirting would be repaired and that a rotted beam at the front of the house would be replaced, and that all piers would be strapped with five (5) straps for lateral stability. The piers were replaced but only one strap was used, several of them were broken, and the rotted beam was not replaced. I didn't say anything about it when the repair was done, so they may have fixed those things if I'd been more on the ball about inspecting their work. But I don't think the details of the repair were well communicated to the work crew. The actual installation of the piers went well and the house is still level, so the main purpose of the job was achieved well enough."
"Great experience with a very professional crew. The work of fixing my front sidewalk and driveway was completed quickly, on time, and looks great now! Thanks to Jackie and Ryan, who did the repair work. They were friendly, efficient, and quickly completed all the work needing to be done. They answered all my questions. I would go to Baird Foundation Repair without hesitation for any future foundation or concrete work, if the need develops. I'll be recommending Baird to all of my neighbors and friends. Oh, and the cost of the work being done actually came in a little under what I was expecting, which was a very nice surprise!"
"The foundation work was excellent. Mark, the owner, had a team at our house in a timely manner. They dug to bedrock and poured pilings. They cleaned up after themselves and my husband I literally watched the cracks in our walls close. It was amazing. We found Mark to be professional and fair. I'd recommend his company to anyone. That said, when we had a roof problem, we called Mark for a roofer recommendation. We were thrilled to learn that he was in the roofing business and again he came to our house promptly, gave us an estimate, and got to work. The house has a flat roof, so not many are interested in the work. Mark used a new product. It's a foam base and works like a charm. The roof has actually insulated the house, making it cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. Again, my husband and I were thrilled with the work ethic and the product."
"I am satisfied with the work done to remove the tree roots that buckled the driveway and the replacement of the driveway cement. During the demolition or when the boards were placed as molds for the cement, two irrigation pipes and a sprinkler head were broken. The job foreman told me but not the owner. The problem was solved after several days delay. The sprinkler head was placed too high, but I will add topsoil and plant sod and that should fix the issue. Being careful during demolition would not have created another problem. I would hire this company again but would be more aware."
Foundation repair uses methods such as underpinning, slab jacking, or application of hydraulic piers. Each technique is chosen based on structural needs, soil conditions, and damage extent, ensuring a stable and secure foundation.
It depends on the severity of the damage, lasting from a few days to several weeks.
Foundation repair costs $250 for a minor crack that doesn’t affect the structure’s integrity, although it can cost as much as $800 if it’s a major crack. Call a pro to get it fixed as soon as possible if your crack is bigger than 1/8 inch wide. Additionally, if you need to seal the foundation to fix leaks, it can cost approximately $2,000 to $7,000.
There are a few ways to reinforce a pier and beam foundation, including installing additional piers and beams for added support and performing underpinning, which redistributes the weight of your home further down into the ground where frost and soil expansion don’t pose a threat to the foundation. The best option for reinforcement varies based on your particular home and the soil conditions beneath it.
A leak under your foundation from a water supply line or sewage line is likely to lead to water pooling on certain areas of your property during rainfall, abnormally fast-growing or green grass in certain sections of your lawn, and differential settlement of your foundation, which can result in large foundation cracks, windows and doors failing to operate properly, a wavy or sloping roofline, or damages or irregularities in your interior walls, including cracks and bulging. If it’s a plumbing line embedded in your slab, you’ll also likely notice above-average water bills.
