None of them, on its own, establishes that a foundation needs repair. Each one is worth documenting. grid\_goldenratio ### Stair-step cracks in brick Diagonal cracking through mortar joints near windows and corners. It can accompany foundation movement, or it can reflect ordinary masonry behaviour. Width and change over time matter more than the crack being there at all. Read the guide arrow\_forward [Stair-step cracks in brick →](/guide/are-brick-and-mortar-cracks-a-foundation-problem/) door\_front ### Doors and windows that stick Sticking that comes and goes with humidity is usually seasonal. Sticking that worsens steadily, especially alongside cracks, is worth measuring rather than planing down. Read the guide arrow\_forward [Doors and windows that stick →](/guide/why-your-doors-and-windows-stick/) align\_horizontal\_left ### Sloping or uneven floors A marble that rolls tells you there is a slope. It does not tell you how much, where the high point is, or whether it is moving. An elevation survey answers those three questions. Read the guide arrow\_forward [Sloping or uneven floors →](/guide/uneven-or-sloping-floors-what-to-check/) line\_start ### Gaps at trim and baseboards Separation where trim meets the wall or floor, or where brick meets a window frame. Useful to photograph and date, because the change between photos is the real signal. Read the guide arrow\_forward [Gaps at trim and baseboards →](/guide/common-foundation-warning-signs-san-antonio/) What appearance alone cannot establish A photograph cannot tell you whether movement is active, how much elevation has been lost, or what is causing it. Those answers come from measurement and on-site observation. We will not diagnose your property from a picture, and we would be wary of anyone who does.

The older core near Main Street and the FM 78 corridor includes mid-century homes, some on raised pier-and-beam foundations with crawlspaces, where beam shimming and joist sistering are the relevant repairs. The newer subdivisions along FM 3009 and toward Cibolo are slab-on-grade residential properties, where perimeter and interior underpinning with steel push piers or concrete pressed pilings is the usual scope. Foundation settlement in these newer areas often follows the same expansive-clay pattern seen across the northeast corridor, driven by seasonal moisture changes in the shrink-swell subgrade. Because both types exist within a few miles of each other, the San Antonio Foundation Repair team never assumes a foundation type from an address. The first job of the evaluation is establishing what you actually have and what that means for method and access. Access and scheduling ## Scheduling and Property Access Along FM 3009 Schertz spreads across three counties, and the practical route to a property usually runs off FM 3009, Schertz Parkway, or the I-35 frontage, within reach of Pickrell Park near the historic core. Evaluations are set by appointment, and we ask for interior access to every room because a partial elevation survey produces a partial answer. Older Schertz lots often have mature oaks close to the foundation, which affects both moisture and where equipment can stage. San Antonio Foundation Repair identifies those constraints during the evaluation so the quote reflects the real access conditions instead of a generic assumption. Where steel push pier or concrete pressed piling work needs perimeter access along a shared fence line or drainage easement, we confirm clearance before the crew date is set. The evaluation process, written scope, and warranty terms are the same here as they are everywhere else we work.

Local questions ## Foundation Repair in Schertz: Common Questions ### Do you work on both slab and pier-and-beam homes in Schertz? expand\_more Yes. Schertz has both, sometimes on the same street. Older homes near Main Street and FM 78 are more likely to be raised pier-and-beam with a crawlspace, while the FM 3009 subdivisions are predominantly slab-on-grade. The evaluation confirms which you have and determines whether underpinning, shimming, or another method applies. ### Which Schertz neighborhoods do you cover? expand\_more We evaluate residential and commercial properties across Schertz, including the Schertz Parkway and FM 3009 corridors, Ashley Place, Live Oak Hills, and the older Main Street area, plus neighboring Cibolo, Universal City, and Converse. ### Do the mature trees on my Schertz lot affect the foundation? expand\_more They can. Large trees draw moisture from expansive clay during dry periods, which can contribute to localized soil shrinkage and foundation settlement near the perimeter. Species, distance, and root direction all matter, so we note what we observe rather than recommending removal by default. ### How much disruption should I expect during Schertz foundation work? expand\_more Exterior pier work means excavation around the perimeter, spoil piles, and some landscaping disturbance, with backfill and grading on completion. Interior piers mean flooring removal in the work area. The written scope states exactly what is included in restoration and what is not. ### Can you evaluate a Schertz home before we list it for sale? expand\_more Yes, and many sellers do. A documented evaluation, with findings and any recommended scope in writing, gives you something concrete to hand a buyer instead of leaving the question open during negotiation. ### How much does foundation repair cost in Schertz? expand\_more Cost depends on foundation type, repair method, pier count, access conditions, and the scope of associated work. Slab underpinning in this area typically involves steel push piers or concrete pressed pilings, and pricing varies with depth to refusal and the number of piers required. We provide a written scope with itemized costs after the on-site evaluation rather than quoting a generic range (2026 pricing is quoted per project). ### What is the best time of year for foundation repair in the Schertz area? expand\_more Foundation repair can be performed year-round in central Texas. Dry summer months may make excavation easier, while wet seasons can expose drainage issues that inform the scope. The best time is when the evaluation findings support it, not a particular calendar window. ### Does homeowners insurance cover foundation repair in Texas? expand\_more Standard Texas homeowners policies typically do not cover repairs caused by soil movement or normal settling. Coverage may apply when damage results from a covered event such as a plumbing leak. We recommend reviewing your policy with your insurer, and our written findings and scope documentation can support a claim where coverage applies. ### Where can I find foundation repair near me in Schertz? expand\_more We evaluate properties across Schertz and the surrounding northeast corridor, including Ashley Place, Live Oak Hills, the Schertz Parkway and FM 3009 areas, and the neighboring Cibolo, Universal City, and Converse communities.
