What are the warning signs that my foundation needs repair?

We recommend scheduling an inspection if you notice:

  • Cracks in interior or exterior walls, especially near doors and windows

  • Doors or windows that stick or won’t close properly

  • Uneven, sagging, or sloping floors

  • Gaps between walls and ceilings or floors

  • Visible cracks in the foundation, especially those larger than 1/4″

These are common signs of shifting soil or settling that may require professional evaluation.

How does the expansive clay soil in Dallas–Fort Worth affect my foundation?

The DFW area is built on expansive clay soil, which swells when wet and shrinks during dry periods. This constant expansion and contraction causes the ground to shift, leading to foundation movement, cracking, and settling. These soil conditions are the primary reason foundation problems are so common in our region.

How much does foundation repair cost in the DFW area?

Foundation repair costs vary based on the size of your home, the type of foundation, and how many piers are required. On average, our repairs cost just over $8,000, but they can range anywhere from $3,000 to $30,000 depending on the scope of work. This average cost also includes a 3rd party engineering inspection, city permits, & hydrostatic plumbing tests. We offer free inspections and elevation surveys to provide an accurate quote tailored to your home’s needs.

Does homeowner’s insurance cover foundation repair?

In most cases, standard homeowners insurance doesn’t cover damage caused by soil movement or drought-related settlement. However, some policies may cover foundation repairs if the damage results from a covered peril, such as. plumbing leaks, fire, or hail. We always recommend reviewing your policy or speaking with your insurance provider directly.

What repair methods do you use, and which is best for my home?

We exclusively install steel pier systems that are driven to load-bearing strata or bedrock. Steel piers are preferred over concrete alternatives because they reach stable soil layers, making them a long-term solution even when unstable clay soil extends 30 feet or more below the surface.

How long does foundation repair typically take?

Most of our repairs are completed within 1 to 5 working days, depending on the size and complexity of the project. Of course, there are exceptions, but we’re glad to include an estimated project scope of work timeline with each estimate. We work efficiently to minimize disruption, and in most cases, homeowners can remain in the house and carry on with their daily routine.

Should I water my foundation during dry spells? How do I maintain proper soil moisture?

Yes, maintaining consistent soil moisture is essential for foundation health in the DFW climate. We recommend:

  • Using soaker hoses around your foundation during dry periods

  • Avoiding overwatering, which can lead to soil heaving

  • Ensuring proper drainage to prevent pooling and erosion

Maintaining stable moisture levels helps prevent soil shrinkage and reduces movement under your foundation.

Will foundation repair permanently fix my problems?

Yes. Our steel pier systems are designed to provide a permanent solution. Each repair comes with a lifetime transferable warranty covering both materials and workmanship. There are no inspection or transfer fees.

Do I need to move out during the repair process?

No. Our repair process is designed to have minimal impact on your home and lifestyle. Most work is done outside, with small, targeted excavations that are neatly bagged and cleaned up afterward. You can stay in your home throughout the process without any major disruption.

How can I prevent future foundation issues after a repair?

To protect your foundation long-term, we recommend:

  • Keeping soil moisture levels consistent

  • Ensuring proper drainage around the home

  • Avoiding large tree roots near the foundation

  • Scheduling check-ins if concerns arise—we offer free inspections through our warranty program

At AlphaLift, we provide permanent foundation repair solutions across the Dallas–Fort Worth area using trusted steel pier systems. Our experienced teams ensure quality work backed by a lifetime warranty. With proper maintenance and soil care, your foundation will remain secure for years to come.
