A homeowner in Madison, Alabama, notices stair-step cracks forming along the walls of her home. At first, she assumes it’s just a cosmetic issue, but over time, she sees misaligned doors, uneven floors, and small gaps around windows and exterior doors. Concerned that the problem is worsening, she wonders: Is my home’s slab foundation shifting?

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Slab foundation problems are not uncommon and can start with small warning signs. But, if left unaddressed, these issues can lead to serious structural damage. Fortunately, at Ox Foundation Solutions, we specialize in slab foundation repair, offering effective solutions to stabilize and help protect homes and businesses.

What Causes Slab Foundation Issues?

Several factors can contribute to slab foundation movement and deterioration, including:

  • Expansive clay soil – Alabama’s soil expands when wet and shrinks when dry, often leading to foundation shifting and settling.
  • Erosion and poor drainage – Water pooling around the foundation washes away supporting soil, creating voids under the slab.
  • Improper soil compaction – If the soil wasn’t compacted properly during construction, it can settle unevenly, causing foundation cracks.
  • Plumbing leaks – Undetected leaks beneath the slab can soften the soil, leading to foundation movement.
  • Natural wear and tear – Over time, all foundations experience some degree of settling, but excessive or uneven movement requires professional attention.
Full Transferable Warranty

We stand behind the work we do. That is why we offer full, life-of-the-structure warranties that are transferable should you sell your home.

How Ox Foundation Solutions Repairs Slab Foundations

At Ox Foundation Solutions, we use advanced foundation repair techniques tailored to your property’s specific needs. Our process begins with a thorough inspection to identify the root cause of the problem. Our proven slab foundation repair methods include:

  • Steel push pier installation – Installed deep into load-bearing soil, push piers can lift and stabilize a sinking slab.
  • Helical pier installation – Used in areas with unstable soil, helical piers are screwed into the ground to provide strong, lasting support.
  • Polyurethane foam injection (Polylifting) – This lightweight, moisture-resistant foam is injected beneath the slab to fill voids and lift sunken concrete.
  • Foundation crack repair – We seal and reinforce foundation cracks to prevent water intrusion and further movement.
  • Drainage solutions – We also offer waterproofing and downspout extensions that direct water away from your foundation to ward against erosion.
Payment & Financing Options

We've partnered with a finance company to offer low-interest and no-interest finance options.
