Most of Texans are unaware of what causes foundation problems, and sadly, some foundation companies capitalize on this lack of knowledge with fear-based marketing and high-pressure sales tactics. This leads to overpriced and, far too often, unnecessary foundation repairs via underpinning with pressed concrete piles or poured piers, bankrupting homeowners and causing further structural damage, including the sinking of home interiors. Gimmicky service agreements dressed up as "lifetime" warranties are often useless pieces of paper used to close foundation repair sales. Pier-less aims to protect the public by helping eliminate the need for foundation underpinning.
Is the foundation repair industry fueling interior foundation settlement, leading to costly repairs? If interior settlement almost exclusively occurs in homes with perimeter foundation repairs, might there be a pattern suggesting intent, especially given the high costs associated with interior repairs, including overpriced tunneling? After years of observing these trends, it's time to stop allowing our family's wealth to be stolen out from under us and start taking back control of our homes.
At Pier-less, we champion proactive soil management strategies that not only prevent further damage but also offer a more sustainable, cost-effective solution compared to traditional methods. Our advanced system outperforms and outlasts conventional underpinning, delivering superior results by stabilizing soil moisture. Once we achieve this stability, the necessity for piers or pilings is significantly reduced or even eliminated. The real foundation of your home lies in the soil beneath; our foundation defense system, which repairs and manages soil conditions, provides the only true path to lasting structural stability.
In Texas, only licensed inspectors and engineers are licensed to provide opinions about foundation performance. Pier-less is the sole foundation repair company owned and operated by licensed inspectors. Traditional foundation repair companies, unlike Pier-less, are not licensed to perform foundation inspections; they only provide estimates for leveling homes. Like other foundation companies, Pier-less offers free foundation inspections, however we also offer affordable, unbiased written performance opinions when needed.
Based on the estimated average cost of foundation repairs in Houston, TX based on our experience in the foundation repair industry. Traditional foundation repair estimates via pressed piles can range from $7k to over $50k. This does not include the costs of structural, plumbing damage or warranty callbacks caused by foundation repair.
