Local know-how
Foundation problems in Lewisville
Lewisville, in southern Denton County along Lewisville Lake, has a mix of homes from the 1970s through today, most on concrete slabs. Soils here are North Texas clays that shrink and swell with moisture, so slab foundations move with the seasons.
Homes near drainage channels and on lots that slope toward the lake can also have water problems: water collecting against the slab softens the clay on one side and causes uneven movement.
Lewisville’s foundation repair permit
Lewisville lists foundation repair as its own permit type in the city’s building permit and fee schedule, with a residential foundation repair permit fee of $50. Contractors register with the city to pull permits, and inspections are required. Ask your contractor to show you the permit and keep the final engineer’s letter with your house records.
Costs

| Steel or concrete piers, per pier (national guides) | $1,000 – $3,000 |

Drainage first
Gutters, downspout extensions and grading that sends water away from the slab are the cheapest protection. On lots that slope toward the house, a swale or French drain may be needed. See foundation drainage.
