Foundation Repair Fort Worth, TX

Rock in some places, clay in others

Parts of Fort Worth, especially west and southwest of downtown, sit on fairly shallow soil over limestone. Much of the east side and the land toward Arlington is deeper, expansive clay. Homes on rock tend to move less, but a house built partly on rock and partly on clay or fill can move unevenly.

Historic neighborhoods such as Fairmount have many early-1900s homes on pier and beam foundations. Fast-growing areas in north Fort Worth are mostly newer slab construction.

What Fort Worth homeowners run into

• Uneven support where a slab rests on two different kinds of ground.
• Clay movement on the east side, with summer gaps and seasonal cracks.
• Older crawlspaces with settled piers, worn shims, and moisture.
• New-construction settling in recently graded subdivisions.
• Drainage on sloped lots sending water toward the foundation.

Newer homes in north Fort Worth

New subdivisions are often built on land that was recently cut and filled. Some early cracking can be normal shrinkage, but cracks that keep widening, or doors that stop latching, are worth measuring with an elevation survey.
