    Situated west of Dallas and serving as the central hub for Pinnacle Foundation Repair, Grand Prairie holds a prominent position within the Mid-Cities region of the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. With almost 200,000 residents, Grand Prairie stands as a dynamic city straddling the border between Tarrant and Dallas counties. However, like many areas throughout the metroplex, Grand Prairie’s soil is predominantly clay-heavy and known for its high absorbency, causing expansion during intense rainfall and subsequent contraction during dry spells.

    At Pinnacle Foundation Repair, we understand the unique challenges posed by the Grand Prairie soil and climate, and our specialized team is well-equipped to address them – providing tailored solutions to tackle issues such as soil settlement, slab cracks, and foundation shifts. From free inspections to comprehensive foundation repair services, we’re committed to ensuring the structural integrity of homes and businesses in both Grand Prairie and its neighboring communities.

In those cases, we offer strategies to keep your structure standing firm and show you how to check for signs of potential foundation damage in the future. How’s that for radical honesty?

    Types of damage to be on alert for in Grand Prairie, TX

    Foundations can show signs of damage long before serious structural issues arise, but you have to know what to look for and what to do when you suspect a problem. Get ahead of the situation and prevent collateral issues by checking for these signs:

    Exterior Brick Cracks in Grand Prairie Texas

    Exterior Brick Cracks

    If you have a brick home and notice either horizontal or vertical cracks on the exterior of your home, this is a strong signal that your home is experiencing foundation issues and needs to be inspected by a professional.

    Cracks on Interior Walls in Grand Prairie Texas

    Cracks on Interior Walls

    Take a close look at areas like seams or breaks in the wall and other vulnerable areas inside your house. These are usually among the first places to show signs that foundation issues are a concern. Inspect drywall around doorways, windows, and thresholds for cracks and misalignment.

    Doors and Windows Sticking ​in Grand Prairie Texas

    Doors and Windows Sticking

    Doors and entryways will begin to sag when there’s damage to your property’s foundation. Doors often stick or potentially swing freely due to the misalignment, and windows may become hard to open and close. Check for these signs and call a professional right away.

    Cracking Floor in Grand Prairie Texas

    Cracking or Buckling Floors

    Flooring issues can be a tell-tale sign that you have foundation issues. If you notice tiles are uneven or cracked, the hardwood is sagging, or if you notice cracks on your exterior slab foundation, you need to have your foundation inspected.

    Frieze Board Separation​ in Grand Prairie Texas

    Frieze Board Separation

    Frieze board separation occurs when the horizontal trim board (frieze board) visibly detaches from the exterior wall of your house. This noticeable gap is a vital indicator of potential foundation problems, signaling shifts or settlements that may jeopardize the overall structural integrity of the building.

    Pinnacle’s proven foundation repair methods

    We are experts at a wide variety of foundation repair methods. This allows us to use the best method for your specific project.

    Lifetime Warranty

    Steel Pier

    In this popular method, we interlock 12-inch steel pipes with a friction reduction plate and fill the pipes with cement to prevent the piers from failing. Steel piers can reach up to 75 feet into the ground - five times deeper than concrete cylinders. And because they can bear a higher load than any other foundation repair method, they’re a permanent solution.

    Lifetime Warranty

    Steel
    transition pier

    Struggling to choose between a steel and a concrete pier system? Get the best of both worlds. Steel transition piers mix double-walled steel and high-strength concrete to provide a strong, stable foundation at a reasonable cost. Compared to a concrete pressed piling or a drilled pier, it reaches deeper into the ground for greater stability.

    Lifetime Warranty

    Helical pier

    Helical piers are steel shafts with round helix plates that screw into the ground as deep as a steel pier, and are our go-to method where unstable soils are a concern. These piers install quickly and cause little ground disturbance and vibrations, making them ideal for tying back bowed walls or lifting fragile structures in sandy soils.

    10-Year Warranty

    Drilled pier

    Drilled piers are screwed into the earth instead of pressed, which causes less strain to the building. These lightweight and durable piers are an ideal choice for smaller buildings that are unable to endure the vibrations caused by a larger hydraulic press. We reinforce these 12-to-18-inch piers with rebar and a five-sack concrete mix.

    5-Year Warranty

    Mud jacking

    Got sunken or uneven concrete slabs on your porch or home’s foundation? Our Mud Jacking process solves this by injecting a mixture of water, soil, sand, and cement beneath the surface to restore the slab’s proper elevation.

    Please read whole review.When it comes to foundation has homeowners it feels scary of not knowing what all is involved, especially when it is your first time. We research hours on end for the best company to do the best job per our situations. Let me begin by saying I was nervous at first, now followed by total promotion of this company. Read reviews and researched, then made the call for estimate and never called back.First contact was with Kristen(very polite and courteous), she took info and made appointment for rep to come and talk to me about process. Made multiple calls and texts to confirm appointment. Never made me feel rushed or overwhelmed. After talking to her for about 5-10 minutes she started to best decision I have made. She even called me back to make sure everything was going smoothly and if I needed extra support.Keith was the next contact (face to face) field rep. Showed up on time and made multiple calls to confirm appointment, just in case I needed to reschedule. Came talked me through the whole process before getting started. Educated me from start to finish. Did follow up calls from beginning of process all the way through and even after work was completed.Now the day of worked has arrived the crew that showed called with window arrival. Everyone on crew was courteous and polite. They were very easy to get along with. We did a recap of job, check list of things working (sprinkler system) and careful with my things and patio. Then the crew got started. Now granite my foundation was not to bad, I caught it in time but still needed to be adjusted. When crew was ready for another measure for exact leveling enters Marcos.Marcos came in and talked to crew first to get update before talking to me which was perfect. Timing and foundation adjustment is critical. Remeasures levels and communicates with crew and me through whole process of what is happening. After all the adjusting, Marco talks to me while crew outside still working and cleaning and mixing new concrete like a magic show. Marcos experience along with crew made this experience lasting. Marcos even has reached out after job to make sure everything is good. The crew with their experience and knowledge made the process and cleanup even better than when they arrived. The crew was clean, courteous and thorough.Now for the owner of this great company. The employees you have acquired over the years cannot be replaced.Robert/Robby, I wish to express my experience and compassion with you on the first contact from Kristen, Keith, Marcos and the crew. The texts and emails with names and faces that would show up for repair from start to finish result in this review that cannot express my sheer gratitude. Your employees definitely need a raise. Even my father said he couldn't believe the work that was performed. Your company will always have my business from now and in the future. I will promote your company without hesitation. Thank you and your employees for making this process seemingly smooth.
    We had Keith come out twice to our house to go over foundation issues. Unlike other companies who came out and gave us a quote in only a few minutes and not much discussion of options, Keith spent a lot of time with us making sure we understood everything. They weren’t cheapest, but I felt the most comfortable with them.The crew was very nice, and did a great job. We’re pleased with the results, and recommend Pinnacle, although I hope to never need to go through foundation repair again.
    Pinnacle foundations did a great job. Keith did a great jod explaining repairs needed and followup after the job was completed. The whole team did a great job.
    Pinnacle Foundation recently did an extensive foundation repair for my house. They did a great job from the beginning to the end. Keith provided the estimate and explained all the steps throughly. He followed up during the project and answered my questions. All the crew and supervisors were very professional and did a great job on prep work and clean up after the completion.
    Keith came out today and was was professional, also on time! He gave me some very good advice and answered all of my questions!
    Keith and his staff are great and knowledgeable . They got my house fixed in one day.
    Grant came out to check our foundation. We have some cracked tiles and a small crack visible in the foundation on the outside of the house. He told us that there is some movement but not enough to recommend repairs at this time. We appreciate his honesty and will certainly contact Pinnacle if things get worse!
    Their crew did great work and were prompt and courteous
    Pinnacle Foundation Repair just completed my foundation lift. They were excellent from start to finish. Chris in Sales provided a free estimate and after I collected 4 more estimates, I chose Pinnacle. Their communication was excellent throughout the whole process.My home needed 19 piers including one interior. This would require removing some flooring and jack hammering. I was very concerned about this. But Chris at Pinnacle gave me some options and I chose a tunnel from the outside. That made the whole process much less stressful for me. And spoiler alert: I had no damage as a result of the repair. My floors are intact. Whew.Pano and the crew were so hard working, polite, professional, and did a great job cleaning up after the work. There is an enormous amount of dirt that has to be removed and they laid tarps, kept the piles neat and put everything back. The whole repair took 3 days. You can’t tell the work was done unless you’re specifically looking to find a little disturbed earth.Marcos coordinated the lift and took measurements before, during, and after the lift until he got it right where he needed it to be. He asked which areas I was particularly concerned about so he could keep a special eye out for those. That was impressive.You rarely get a company that does excellent work and provides consistent customer service. Pinnacle was that for me. I highly recommend.
    We knew our house had foundation issues and consulted with multiple foundation companies over the years. Pinnacle's recommendation on pier installation locations, their steel pressed pilings, and finding the location of the beams with GPR even during their first visit impressed us. Also Justin Tucker responded to our additional questions and concerns in a timely manner, via phone calls and text messages. We really saw the brick cracks close when they lifted the foundation. Also post pier installation, they had Engineering and Plumbing companies arrive to do further tests. I highly recommend Pinnacle Foundation and they are experts in what they do.

    FAQs about Foundation Repair in Grand Prairie, TX

    Grand Prairie soil is mainly clay, known for soaking up water like a sponge. When it rains hard, it swells, and when it dries, it shrinks. This can spell trouble for foundations, as uneven water accumulation may occur around the base, exerting pressure that can push certain areas of the foundation upwards and lead to damage.

    In most cases, the repairs will not require you to be out of the home during the process, but there are some scenarios where some rooms would have to be cleared out to cut through the slab to install piers. However, Pinnacle offers tunneling services as an option to avoid this disruption.

    The cost for foundation repairs will vary depending on the issue, but an average quality repair made by a reputable company is going to average just over $11,000 based on the thousands of repairs we have made over the past 12 months. This average cost also includes having a reputable 3rd party engineer inspecting our work, a city permit, and also a hydrostatic plumbing test by a 3rd party plumber.

    Our steel pier system is the best method used in most structures in Grand Prairie and surrounding areas. Not only does it penetrate even the most dense clay in Texas, providing the most permanent solution, it’s also stronger than similar steel options on the market that many national foundation repair companies offer at a higher price.

    As long as the structure is lifted correctly by a properly trained technician following the proper IRC guidelines, repairing an affected area will not cause other areas of the foundation to settle. There are some foundation repair companies that outsource their repairs to inexperienced subcontractors that have created this stigma, but we do not operate this way at Pinnacle Foundation Repair.

    : It’s best to take action as soon as you see signs of failure, no matter what time of year it is. With our extreme Texas weather conditions and problematic soils in Grand Prairie, it’s not advised to wait to repair your foundation. As time passes, the foundation failure can worsen and have a negative impact on a greater portion of the foundation, resulting in a larger scope of repair work. While cracks in the flooring and sheetrock are obvious signs of failure, watch for less obvious signs, like doors swinging on their own, trim separation, and sloping in the floors.
