Start with the cause, not the crack
Foundation repair begins with understanding the pattern of movement rather than treating one visible symptom in isolation. Cracks, sticking doors and uneven floors can have several causes, so the structure, foundation type and surrounding drainage should be evaluated together.
Repair methods vary
Possible repair approaches include slab stabilization with piers, pier-and-beam support correction, house leveling and drainage improvements. The appropriate method depends on the foundation and repair design.
Engineering and permitting matter
Structural repairs should follow applicable engineering and permit requirements. In Richardson, the city publishes specific foundation-repair permit requirements, including signed and sealed engineering information.
