Houston’s climate puts a lot of pressure on slab foundations. Shifting weather patterns and long dry periods cause the clay-rich soil to swell and shrink throughout the year. That movement can make concrete slabs crack or sink over time. In commercial buildings, even...

Concrete slabs rely on consistent support from the ground beneath them. When that support weakens, gaps can start to form out of sight. These voids develop in different ways: through water movement, soil shrinkage, or long-term pressure, but the result is often a...

Concrete provides critical support for everything built on top of it. When that support begins to shift, surface changes tend to appear slowly. Water may start pooling in low areas. A once-stable walkway can begin to feel off balance. Cracks often form near joints or...

Sinking concrete tends to develop gradually. A surface that once felt solid might start to slope. Cracks may appear near the edges. Doors, gates, or mounted equipment begin to shift slightly out of line. These small changes often point to something more serious...

Concrete slabs in Texas face constant pressure from the weather. Shifting conditions above and below the surface cause materials to expand, contract, or pull away from their foundation. When these changes happen repeatedly, the slab begins to move in ways that affect...

Concrete surfaces tend to hold up well over time, but changes beneath them are not always easy to see. A shift in the ground, a slight loss of contact, or uneven pressure from above can slowly weaken the slab’s support. Often, the surface starts to feel different...

Houston’s growth puts steady demand on the concrete surfaces that support movement, access, and everyday use. Roads, commercial properties, and public spaces rely on a stable foundation. When the ground shifts or support begins to fade, surface changes often follow....

A bulkhead is a structural wall designed to contain soil or water and provide support where changes in elevation or pressure occur. These barriers are often found in areas where surrounding surfaces rely on reinforced edges to stay intact. If a bulkhead begins to...
