What Is a Foundation Inspection?
A foundation inspection is a professional evaluation of your home’s foundation and structural components.
The goal is to identify signs of movement, settlement, cracking, or moisture-related damage that may affect the stability of your home.
In Austin, foundation inspections are especially important due to expansive clay soil, which expands and contracts with moisture changes throughout the year.
When Do You Need a Foundation Inspection?
You should schedule a foundation inspection if you notice any of the following signs:
- Cracks in walls, ceilings, or brick exterior
- Uneven or sloping floors
- Doors or windows sticking
- Gaps between walls and ceilings
- Cracks in the foundation or slab
- Moisture or pooling water near the foundation
Our Foundation Inspection Process
- 1. Visual evaluation of interior and exterior foundation areas
- 2. Measurement of floor elevation to detect settlement
- 3. Identification of structural movement or soil-related issues
- 4. Clear explanation of findings in plain language
- 5. Recommended next steps, if repairs are needed
We focus on identifying the root cause — not just the symptoms.

Why Foundation Inspections Are Critical in Austin
Austin is known for its expansive clay soil, which expands when wet and contracts during dry periods.
This constant movement puts stress on foundations, often leading to cracks, settlement, and uneven floors.
