This is video footage of a walk around in order to gauge damages caused by foundation settlement.  In the video you will see brick cracks, gapping at the windows, trim separation, sheetrock cracks, slab cracks, doors out of alignment, and doors that won't shut.  All these are symptoms of an underlying foundation issue.  Stratum Foundation Repair specializes is solving the underlying foundation problem.  Stratum Foundation Repair is a leading repair company in Dallas, Fort Worth, and Plano, TX.

In the below video you will see a complete single hole pier installation. The type of pier installed is an St2. This is a concrete pressed piling utilizing a steel starter cone and steel rod inserts. These piers are substantially better than a simple pressed piling system.

The majority of foundation repair work is done on the perimeter of a home. Occasionally, however, interior piers are necessary.

The video below is of a post-tension concrete slab being constructed. The waffle shape is due to the trenches dug throughout which will form the interior grade beams once the concrete has been poured. These grade beams are very important when it comes to interior pier installation. The location of interior piers will be based on the location of these interior beams. If small or insufficient beams are located limited leveling will be possible. This is something that can't be determined until installation.

The video below shows a new concrete post-tension slab being poured.  The red cables are the post-tension cables and are used for strengthening the slab.  The deep trenches you see will become the interior grade beams of the house once they are filled with concrete.  These beams are what foundation repair companies hope to locate during the installation of interior piers.  Please note how the trenches aren't exactly straight.  This can make location very difficult down the road.

We would like to thank Keller Williams-Allen for having us out to sponsor their new agent orientation. It was nice meeting all the newbies and we wish them the best of luck in their new careers.

I'd like to send a shout out to Elizabeth Cakes ---> a phrase that I heard uttered by two different realtors..... "these are the best cupcakes I've ever had".  I think we'll do a full cake next time!

If you are a realtor or broker and would like to see about having Stratum sponsor an event please contact Whitney Williams at 214-683-2956.

We moved into our home last year and used Stratum. The Salesman and the crew were very prompt and knew what they were doing. They came in and installed all our piers in August last year and we have had no problems since and at a great price. A Big Thank you to Stratum.

When we bought our home, My wife and i had no idea it had a foundation problem. We called Stratum, after we found out. Having little or no knowledge of our issues, Ryan was definitely the best choice we could have possibly made. I am very happy to trust the basis of our home in his hands.‎

We really enjoyed the whole process of working with Stratum. The salesman was great(and on time), the crew was clean and hardworking(and on time). Everything went smooth. Would definitely recommend them to friends and family.‎

We had many estimates performed on our home and all of the different piers from the different companies had certain things we didn't like about them. Stratum's pier was simply better than the others. Stratum was the only company that had a steel starter cone which insured a deeper pier. Their pier also locks together. It truly was unique compared to their competitors. I would have expected to pay double for this type of system but we were able to go with Stratum AND save money!‎
