Structural Evaluations in Dallas Ft Worth
All homeowners deserve an unbiased opinion on whether foundation repair is in their home’s best interest. Foundation repair companies specialize in lifting houses, whereas a structural engineer is trained to understand, predict and calculate the stability, strength, and rigidity of built structures.
If you are okay with spending thousands of dollars to lift your home without identifying the source of the issue, then call a repair company. If your objective is to fully comprehend the complexities of your home’s structure, foundation, and surrounding soil, as well as the risks associated with installing piers, then you should call an independent Licensed Professional Engineer.
The engineers at TEC will perform a thorough evaluation of your home and provide you with a certified, verifiable engineer’s report. Within your report, you will find specific recommendations from the engineer to resolve any concerns and provide suggestions for preventative maintenance to lessen the chance of future movement.
Remember, foundation repair is major surgery to a house.
You wouldn’t consent to open-heart surgery without a clear understanding of the procedure and consequent side effects. Sometimes trying to lift and repair your home can cause more damage than good. A knowledgeable Licensed Professional Engineer is the only person qualified to properly assess foundation concerns.

Ultimately, by starting off with the right company, you will save money in the long run.
