Foundation Repair in Lake Dallas, TX

Named for the Lake's Original Name

Lake Dallas takes its name from what Lewisville Lake was originally called. Today it is a small lakeside city served by the Lake Dallas school district.

Foundation Concerns Near the Lake

• Sloped lots that drain toward the lake and hold water on the uphill side of a house

• Slab movement on the side of the house with the most sun or the biggest tree
• Patios and walks that tilt toward the house

Repair Options

• Pier and beam repair and crawl space repair
• Drainage correction for sloped lots

Before You Hire

Ask for readings and a written plan, ask where drainage water will be sent, and confirm permit needs with the City of Lake Dallas.

Small Town, Small Jobs Too

Not every foundation request is a major repair. Many are a few piers at one corner, re-shimming a raised floor or fixing a downspout that has been soaking the slab for years. Sending a request is free whether the job turns out large or small.

Making a Small Town Repair Easy

Before the inspection, gather what you have: the year the house was built, whether it is slab or pier and beam, any past repair paperwork and photos of the cracks with dates. Ask the inspector to explain the cause in plain terms and to put the plan, the warranty and any permit requirement in writing.
