Foundation Crack Repair in Keller, TX for Slab, Wall and Brick Cracks
We repair foundation cracks on Keller homes. A crack in a slab or a wall can be a cosmetic flaw in concrete or a sign that the foundation is moving, and the repair depends on which one it is. Call Foundation Repair Keller TX at 123-456-7890 for a free estimate.
We start by measuring the crack and the floor around it. A crack that sits beside a sloping floor and a sticking door points to movement, and we fix the movement first. A crack with a level floor beside it gets sealed or injected so water stays out.
What We Do About Foundation Cracks in Keller
We tell a cosmetic crack from a structural one
The Texas Section of the American Society of Civil Engineers states that the majority of cracks do not compromise structural integrity. Its guidelines also list cracking of concrete foundation elements as a visible indication that a foundation may be performing poorly, and add that cracking does not necessarily imply inadequate structural performance. We measure width, direction and growth, and we check the floor for slope. Signs of foundation problems in Keller
We inject and seal slab and wall cracks
Small and medium cracks are injected with epoxy to fill and seal them, according to HomeGuide's national guide. The ASCE guidelines describe injecting slab cracks of about 1/32 inch and larger with epoxy repair cement, and note that sealants may be an alternative. We pick the material by the crack and by whether it still moves.
We stitch the large cracks
HomeGuide describes crack stitching for large cracks, where steel rods are set across the crack and tied together with wire mesh. We use it when a crack is wide and needs to be held, and only after the movement behind it has stopped.
We repair the cause
A crack that keeps reopening after patching has a cause, such as a settled slab edge, a leak or a bad grade. We trace it and fix it, or the patch fails. Slab foundation repair
Work is performed by independent professionals. Every project starts with an inspection and a written price before any work begins.
How We Repair a Foundation Crack
First, we measure each crack and mark it with the date, so growth shows on the next visit. Second, we check floor elevations and look for a slope, a gap at the baseboard and doors that stick. Third, we write the plan, naming the cracks to inject or stitch and any movement to correct first. Finally, we make the repair and note the crack widths on the written record.
Where Keller Foundation Cracks Show Up
Foundation cracks show in a few places. Look for:
- Diagonal cracks running from the corners of doors and windows
- Stair-step cracks in brick that follow the mortar joints
- Cracks in the slab, the garage floor or the driveway edge
- Cracks in drywall that return after patching
- Brick pulling away from the soffit or the window frame
Soil moisture drives much of it. The Texas Section of ASCE states that Texas has large areas with clayey soils that shrink and swell with changes in soil moisture, and the USDA soil survey for Tarrant County maps clay soils in patches around Keller. Census Bureau figures show about 90% of Keller's occupied homes were built in 1980 or later, so most Keller foundations have been through decades of wet and dry cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are cracks in my foundation serious?
Many are not. The ASCE guidelines state that the majority of cracks do not compromise structural integrity. A crack that is wide, growing, or paired with a sloping floor and sticking doors is a different case. We measure the crack and the floor and tell you which one you have, and we mark the crack to watch for growth.
Can foundation cracks be repaired without lifting the house?
Yes, when the foundation is stable. Small and medium cracks are injected with epoxy, and large cracks can be stitched with steel rods, according to HomeGuide. If the crack comes from movement, the repair needs the foundation stabilized first, or the crack reopens. We measure the floor to find out which case applies.
How much does foundation crack repair cost in Keller?
HomeGuide's 2026 national guide puts crack repair at $250 to $800 per crack, depending on the size of the crack and the method. Those are national averages, not Keller quotes. The number of cracks, their width and the cause set the price for a specific house, and an on-site inspection gives the real number.
Why do my foundation cracks keep coming back?
The foundation is still moving, or water is still reaching the soil. A patch cannot hold a crack that moves. We look at the grade, the downspouts, the plumbing and the floor elevations to find the cause, and we repair that along with the crack. Drainage and your foundation
What does a foundation inspection include?
