Cracks in the brick, sticking doors, a sloping floor? We take precise level readings across your slab, walk your drainage, and give you a real foundation inspection report - then we recommend the right fix. Steel piers and slab leveling when you need them. Drainage and re-grading when that's the real cause. No panic pricing, no $30,000 surprise.
Tell us what you're seeing. A real foundation specialist comes out, takes measurements, and gives you a written report - even if it's "you're fine."
Texas clay shrinks in summer drought and pulls away from your slab. Caught early, the fix is often small. Ignored, it gets expensive. A free foundation inspection tells you exactly where you stand.
Stair-step cracks in exterior brick, or cracks above doors and windows, are classic foundation-movement signs.
Doors that won't latch and windows that jam often mean the slab has shifted underneath them.
A ball that rolls on its own, or a noticeable slope, points to elevation change across the foundation.
Separation where walls meet the ceiling, or gaps at baseboards and crown molding, signal movement.
Most foundation companies sell one fix. We do four - foundation repair, drainage, concrete lifting, and crawlspace - so we have no incentive to push you toward the wrong one.
A real foundation specialist - not a salesperson - takes precise level readings across your slab, photographs every crack, and walks your drainage. About 2 hours.
A written inspection report with photos and measurements. Sometimes the answer is piers and slab leveling. Sometimes it's gutters and re-grading. Sometimes it's nothing at all.
No pressure, no panic pricing. If repair makes sense, we show you exactly what it costs and how long it takes, with financing options if you want them.
Every dot is a real G.L. Hunt job from the last 5 years - and that's just a fraction of our work since 1987. We've completed thousands of jobs across the Austin metro since 2022; zoom into your neighborhood and see how many of your neighbors we've already helped.
Almost nobody budgets for a repair they did not see coming. You have options, and your inspector will walk through which one actually fits your situation.
Through our lending partners. No deposit required and no prepayment penalty. Fixed interest rates are determined by credit score, and repayment terms vary by lender. Promotional 0% periods are available on some programs for customers with credit scores above 700, subject to approval and available discounts.
Financed directly through G.L. Hunt, no outside lender involved. A 50% deposit gets the work started, and the balance carries a one-time 10% financing charge plus a $150 mechanic's lien fee.
For homes under contract to sell. Put down 50%, we do the repair, and we work with your title company to collect the balance out of the sale. A $150 mechanic's lien fee applies.
Programs, rates and repayment terms depend on the lender, your credit and the scope of the project, and all financing is subject to approval. If a pay-at-close transaction is not finalized within 30 days, the balance is due in full or the agreement transitions to in-house financing with a one-time 10% charge on the remaining balance. Your inspector will go through the details and the real numbers with you before you commit to anything.
You don't - not until someone takes precise level readings of your slab and reads the crack pattern. A 1" elevation difference is often normal. A 4" difference with stair-stepping cracks isn't. Our free inspection tells you which one you're looking at.
It depends entirely on how much movement there is and how many piers (if any) the home needs. That's why we measure first and give you a written estimate - so the number is based on your home, not a sales script. Many homes need far less than they're first told.
Yes - completely free, no obligation, no high-pressure pitch. A real foundation specialist comes out, takes measurements, and gives you an inspection report. If your home doesn't need repair, we'll tell you.
About 2 hours. We take elevation readings on a grid across your slab, photograph visible cracks inside and out, walk the perimeter checking drainage and grading, and look for secondary signs (sticky doors, gaps at the ceiling). Then we sit down and walk you through what we found.
Then that's what we'll recommend. French drains, gutters, grading, and downspout work are often the real fix when Texas clay is the culprit - and doing that before installing piers can save you tens of thousands of dollars. We do both, so we can recommend either honestly.
Most exterior pier jobs are done in 1-2 days; larger projects with interior work take 3-5. We offer flexible financing with 0% promotional periods available on some plans for customers with credit scores above 700, subject to approval and available discounts - but only if repair actually makes sense for your home.
One honest inspection. One written report. No panic pricing, no "you need $30,000 of piers tomorrow." We'll tell you exactly what your Austin home needs - and just as importantly, what it doesn't.
