Steel Pier Foundation Repair in Dripping Springs, TX.

Looking for steel pier foundation repair in Dripping Springs? Here’s why local slabs move — and exactly how we fix them.

Common foundation problems in Dripping Springs

Across Dripping Springs, the calls we get most involve settling corners, stair-step brick cracks, and doors that have racked out of square. 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 Dripping Springs

Thin soils over Edwards limestone where rock and drainage dominate. 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

Galvanized steel piers are driven through the active clay to load-bearing strata until they reach refusal, so the home rests on steel instead of soil. Pressed-concrete and hybrid piers often stop inside the moving zone, which is why we install steel piers exclusively here.
