Why Choose Our Foundation Repair Hillsborough County Team
Hillsborough County’s geographic diversity—from clay-rich interior land to sandy coastal zones—creates varied foundation challenges. We use trusted systems such as helical piers, push piers, pressure grouting to eliminate voids and stabilize soil, and concrete or wood/timber piling for deep structural support.
- Helical pier installs for new builds come with a 25-year transferable warranty.
- Concrete and wood/timber piling systems include a 15-year warranty.
By designing and manufacturing many of our own components, we maintain full quality control from materials to installation—ensuring consistent results across Hillsborough County.

Hillsborough County Foundation Repair FAQs
What foundation problems are common in Hillsborough County?
Hillsborough County homes are built on a mix of sandy soils, clay lenses, and karst limestone. We often encounter
slab settlement from washout or poor fill compaction, cracking caused by differential movement,
and moisture intrusion that accelerates steel corrosion in foundations and structural slabs.
Which repair methods work best locally?
We use helical piers and push piers to stabilize and lift footings, inject
pressure/compaction grouting to fill voids, and install concrete or timber piles to reach
competent bearing strata. Designs are engineered for the Florida Building Code and the diverse soil and drainage conditions found throughout Hillsborough County.
Are your foundation systems warrantied?
Yes. Our helical pier installations include a 25-year transferable warranty.
Concrete and timber piling systems carry a 15-year warranty. We maintain strict quality
control by fabricating many components in-house.
How does your inspection and repair process work?
We start with a free on-site inspection, then provide a prioritized scope of work and
permit-ready engineering drawings if needed. We coordinate with HOAs, insurers, and
Hillsborough County building officials to make permitting and approvals straightforward.
Do you fix drainage and hydrostatic pressure problems?
Yes. We install French drains, engineered grading, downspout extensions, and moisture barriers to reduce
hydrostatic pressure under slabs and along walls—critical in Hillsborough’s rainy, flood-prone areas.
Can you help with floodplain or sinkhole-prone sites?
Absolutely. We have extensive experience with sinkhole remediation, void filling, and deep underpinning
for homes in karst-prone zones, as well as drainage and moisture control for floodplain properties.
Do I need a structural engineer for foundation repair?
Yes. Most structural repairs require engineered plans. Our team includes Civil Engineer Ken Sands, P.E.,
who signs and seals repair drawings for permitting and insurance compliance.
How long do Hillsborough County repairs take?
Void grouting: typically 1–2 days. Helical/push piers: usually 3–7 days.
Large underpinning or sinkhole stabilization projects can require several weeks including permitting and site prep.
What do foundation repairs cost in Hillsborough County?
Minor void grouting starts in the low thousands. Deep pier or piling systems for larger or complex properties may range
$15,000–$40,000+ depending on pier count, access, and soil depth. We provide a clear, itemized proposal after inspection.
