About

About this site

Piney Woods Foundation Repair covers foundation repair in Tyler and the towns around it, across Smith, Henderson, Cherokee and Van Zandt counties.

Why this site exists

Foundation repair is one of the biggest bills a house around here can hand you, and one of the hardest things to shop for. Texas does not license foundation repair companies. Nobody in Tyler publishes a price. The permit rules change every time you cross a city line. And most of what you find online about Texas foundations is written about Dallas clay, which is not the ground under most of Smith County.

So the facts are all in one place instead: price ranges with their sources, the permit office and fee for each town, what the county soil surveys actually say, and how to check out a company before you let it near your house. Every figure carries its source and the date it was checked. The editorial standards page explains how that works.

What happens when you call

The repair work itself is done by an independent foundation repair company working in your area, under its own contract and its own warranty. This site does not inspect houses, design repairs or do the work. Call or send the form and the request goes to one company, not a list, and nobody sells your number on. That company comes out, gives you its own estimate, and you are under no obligation to hire it.
