How much does foundation repair cost?

Average Houston job: $4,800-12,500 depending on pier count and depth. We give you a firm written quote at the inspection — and we'll tell you if drainage correction ($2-4k) is the actual fix instead of piers.

Is the lifetime warranty real?

Yes — and it's transferable to the next owner, which matters at resale. We've been in business since 2001 and have honored warranty claims from work done in 2005.

Will repair affect my home's value?

A properly repaired and warrantied foundation is a net positive at resale. Buyers want to see the engineer report and the transferable warranty — that's what closes the deal. We provide both as a package.

"Two competitors quoted me 18 piers and $22k. Theo came out, did an actual elevation survey, and showed me the real problem was a clogged French drain. Fixed the drainage for $3,200 and the doors stopped sticking within a month. Honest engineer — rare in this business."

"Cracks above every door on the back of the house. Bayou City did 14 concrete piers in two days, lifted the slab back close to original elevation, and the cracks closed up. Engineer letter at closing helped me refinance. Lifetime transferable warranty is the real deal."

"I called four foundation companies. Three were pure salesmen pushing piers. Theo is a licensed engineer, walked the property with a manometer, and gave me a written report. We ended up doing partial piers and drainage — half the cost of the other quotes."

The Person Behind the Truck

Theo Whitfield

Owner & Licensed Engineer · License #TX-PE-92841

Bayou City Foundation was founded by Theo Whitfield, a licensed Texas Professional Engineer (TX-PE-92841) who got tired of watching salesmen in pickup trucks scare homeowners into $25k pier jobs they didn't need. Every inspection is performed by Theo or another licensed PE — not a commissioned closer. Many homes we inspect don't need repair, and we'll tell you so in writing.

"Diagnose like an engineer. Quote the real fix, not the biggest one. Stand behind the work for life."
