Foundation Repair Tyler Texas

Frequently Asked Questions

1. QUESTION:
   Post-tension or steel-rebar foundation for a home?
   We are considering building a new home in the Dallas,Texas area. The builder uses post-tension foundation versus the steel rebar foundation that we currently have in our Dallas home. I have read both pro and con articles for both sides of this argument. I would like to know what type of foundation is better for this area. Anyone that can shed some light on this issue would be greatly appreciated. I would rather find out on this side of building a home than have expensive foundation repairs after the home is built.

   • ANSWER:
     I have a friend who has a good bit of commercial rental property in and around Tyler, Tx. He says he has never had a cracked slab when you has used post tensioned slabs.

     He built a home for his daughter just down the street from me and that is what he used there.
