Foundation Repair Contractor in Austin, TX

Stabilizing Homes Built on Expansive Clay Soil

Texas Home Improvement provides professional foundation repair services in Austin, TX designed to protect homes and commercial properties from structural movement caused by expansive clay soil, shifting moisture levels, and Central Texas weather extremes. Austin sits atop clay-rich soils that expand when saturated and shrink during drought, creating continuous movement beneath structures. Seasonal moisture swings can cause measurable foundation movement, resulting in cracks, uneven floors, sticking doors, and exterior gaps. Heavy rains may saturate soil rapidly, while prolonged dry periods cause shrinkage and settlement. Meanwhile, Dallas properties often experience soil movement combined with storm-related water intrusion, and San Antonio homes face soil expansion paired with prolonged heat and humidity. Our foundation repair services in Austin, TX address structural movement, settlement damage, moisture intrusion, and long-term stabilization needs. Whether you own a historic home in Central Austin, a hillside property in Westlake, or a commercial building in North Austin, we provide engineered solutions designed for lasting structural integrity.

Why Austin Foundations Require Specialized Solutions

Austin’s expansive clay soil, often referred to as “blackland clay,” can shrink significantly during drought and swell dramatically when saturated. This repeated cycle places stress on foundations, slab systems, and structural framing. Over time, this movement can create cracks, uneven flooring, and separation between walls and ceilings.

Heavy rainfall can cause rapid soil expansion, while prolonged dry conditions create gaps beneath foundations. This cycle weakens structural stability and increases the risk of water intrusion. DIY fixes or cosmetic patching often fail because they do not address underlying soil movement.

Professional foundation stabilization and home exterior services help protect structural integrity by addressing root causes rather than symptoms. Specialized repair methods, drainage improvements, and moisture control strategies are essential for long-term performance in Central Texas.

Texas Home Improvement today completed a major renovation of the near 50 year old home in the DFW area we relocated to from northern Virginia, installing backing, hardie boards and COOLWALL SUPER COTE in replacing original siding that was in places cracked with rotted backing. We thank Armando and his crew for their skilled and meticulous completion of this renovation under the leadership of Project Manager Ty Liempet and we appreciated the efforts of sales person Eric Perkins in identifying the means whereby we could undertake and complete the whole project with interest free financing. We are very pleased with the outcome.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Brent! We're thrilled your home's renovation turned out great. Armando's crew, Ty, and Eric all appreciate your kind recognition! 🏠

We performed a modest outdoor patio remodel which required painting after construction. Gave THI a call and they were very responsive. The site visit and bid was quick and easy and the project manager, Ty provided great contract execution. The painter, Nick performed excellent service and did a great job. He was very attentive to keeping overspray and protection as a high priority - and performed like a champ during extreme hot weather. Finished product looks great while make the new patio extension blend seamlessly with the house. This is our second time in using THI and will do so again if necessary.

My wife and I had discussed early this year about having our 50 year old 3500 square foot home painted. In early May we made the decision to follow through with our plans to paint the trim on our home. We listened to their pitch and decided upon the "Cool Wall" paint product, even though I knew their quote was higher than most. A crew came out this past Monday morning. Jaime's crew of Raul, Branden, and Samuel first performed some repair work which was a far better fix than I expected. They pressure washed the surface. They took the time to caulk every joint. I found out later just how necessary it is to caulk every edge and joint. A lot of companies bypass this, but not Texas Home Improvement. They sprayed on the "cool wall" paint. They finished by late Monday afternoon... just before a storm hit. They cleaned up well. I highly recommend going with cool wall paint and this company. Our home looks great. The surface is cool to the touch even on the hottest days. It will not fade... ever. Yes, you will probably pay a bit more for this product, and for the professional work of their crews. But I believe it is worth using the best company to improve your most valuable investment... your home. They were friendly, professional, interactive, competent, and went above and beyond to give us the satisfaction we were looking for. We are glad we used Texas Home Improvement. They utilize a team approach to give you the best service possible. I suppose all of their crews are as good as the guys we had. Highly recommend.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Richlon! We're thrilled you and your wife love the Cool Wall results. Jaime's crew takes real pride in doing things right! 🏠

Despite weather delays, Texas Home Improvement and their rep., Luis, were able to complete the jobs with alacrity and professionalism.
Response from the owner:Stephen thank you for your lovely review but most importantly the vocabulary lesson. I fashion myself a word smith, but I had never heard of alacrity. I’ll add that to the repertoire. Very pleased everything worked out and Luis is the best. Let us know if you need anything else, we do all kinds of exterior remodeling. Thank you again.

Had soffits replaced and trim painted with cool wall. Salesmen told my husband and I the paint job had lifetime warranty transferable one time in case we sold. Never got anything in writing regarding the warranty. Have left message with salesmen with no return call. I've tried calling the Grapevine office and it hangs up. They did a good job but I would not have spent this much money if the warranty was not included. Just want a straight answer. How do I get the warranty? Warranty was hand delivered as promised.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the frustration you've experienced trying to get the proper information about your warranty and for the difficulty reaching our team. That's not the level of communication we aim to provide. You're absolutely right to expect your warranty in writing. We're mailing you a copy of your warranty today so that you have it on hand. It will be hand delivered within the next 24-48 hours. If you do not receive it or have any questions, please contact us directly and we'll be happy to help. We appreciate your business and the opportunity to make this right.

DJ went above and beyond, and I can’t recommend him enough. He took time out of his own schedule to come by and look at an issue that was honestly hard to explain without seeing it in person. Right away, he put my mind at ease by confirming that what I was experiencing was just normal home settling—not a bigger problem. What really stood out was his honesty and integrity. He could have easily turned this into a paid job or escalated concerns, but instead he gave me straightforward, reassuring feedback. He also took the extra step of writing up a summary of his visit for my records in case anything ever comes up down the line, which I really appreciated. It’s rare to find someone so kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely looking out for your best interest. DJ saved me from unnecessary stress—and likely from being overcharged by other companies. I’m incredibly grateful for his help and wouldn’t hesitate to call him again in the future.
Response from the owner:Thank you, Stephanie! DJ takes pride in honest assessments—glad he could put your mind at ease about the settling. We're here anytime!

My husband & I had been wanting to have the masonite on our 50-year-old home. Replaced & watched a neighbor have the same thing completed on his house. We spoke with Texas Home Improvement about their product & process & decided that it was a good time to complete this project. The full pricing was a little above our budget, but with a little negotiation, we were able to agree upon a reasonable amount for this size project. We couldn’t be happier. The products used, workmanship & work ethic of their employees was something we hadn’t experienced with other contractors. We love the fact that they do not subcontract the individual projects but everyone who works on your home works for the company. The Coolwall product is amazing And if you want contractor that stands behind their company and product, Texas Home Improvement is for you.
