Looking for foundation leveling in Alamo Heights? Here’s why local slabs move — and exactly how we fix them.

Common foundation problems in Alamo Heights

Across Alamo Heights, the calls we get most involve a floor that visibly slopes, doors out of square, and cracks that widen across a room. They almost always trace back to the ground beneath the slab.

  • Doors and windows that stick, drag, or won’t latch
  • Stair-step cracks in exterior brick or block
  • Sloping, bouncy, or visibly uneven floors
  • Drywall cracks fanning from door and window corners
  • Gaps opening between walls, trim, and the ceiling
  • Cracks in the slab or at the garage floor

Why slab foundations move in Alamo Heights

Older homes on clay near the Olmos Basin show classic seasonal movement. When that ground cycles between wet and dry, a slab cast on it moves too — and surface patches move right along with it.

Why GroundLock uses steel piers

Foundation leveling is precise elevation correction: we map the slab to ±⅛ inch, set the target elevation, and recover it on steel piers driven to stable strata — then re-survey to prove the result.
