Foundation & Slab Repair in Huffman, TX
Cracks in the brick, doors that stick, floors that feel like they slope? That's the house telling you the foundation has moved. We figure out what's actually going on, repair the slab or pier-and-beam foundation, and fix the damage the settling left behind — one team for the whole thing.
When the foundation moves, the whole house tells on it
Around Huffman and the Lake Houston area, the clay soil swells when it's wet and shrinks when it's dry, and over the years that movement works on a foundation. You usually notice it inside the house first — a crack creeping up the sheetrock, a door that won't latch like it used to, a floor that feels off when you walk it. Level Headed Construction repairs slab and pier-and-beam foundations, and because we're a full-service builder, we also put right the damage the movement caused.
We've been building and repairing around Huffman since 2006, across thousands of jobs. Mike Tubbs comes out and looks at it himself, tells you honestly what he sees, and — if it's a job that calls for an engineer's report or a fix that's beyond what we'd take on — he'll say so instead of selling you the wrong repair.
What foundation repair covers
Every foundation job is a little different, but most of what we get called out for falls into these:
- Slab foundation repair
- Pier-and-beam foundation repair
- Settlement & foundation cracks
- Uneven & sloping floors
- Sticking doors & windows from movement
- Repairing & repouring damaged slab sections
- Footings & foundations for additions
- Patching the cracks & damage left behind

One team for the fix and the cleanup
A foundation-only company stabilizes the slab and leaves. Then you're on your own to find someone to patch the drywall cracks, re-hang the doors that stuck, and reset the trim that pulled apart. Because we do the whole range of construction in-house, the same crew that handles the foundation can put the inside of the house back to right — one job, one number, one company accountable for how it turns out.
Built on real concrete experience
Foundations are concrete, and concrete is something we do every week — slabs, footings, and foundations for new builds and additions. That hands-on experience with how a slab is supposed to be formed, poured, and supported is exactly what you want on the other side of a repair: someone who knows what right looks like, not just how to patch a symptom.

The house usually tells on it before the slab does. Cracks stair-stepping through brick or showing up in the sheetrock, doors and windows that suddenly stick or won't latch, floors that feel like they slope, and gaps opening at the trim or countertops are the common signs. If you're seeing any of those, have it looked at — small movement is cheaper to deal with than the damage it causes later. We'll come out and tell you honestly what we see.
Yes — both. Most homes around Huffman and the Lake Houston area sit on a concrete slab, but plenty of older houses are pier-and-beam, and we work on both. We assess what's actually moving, repair the foundation and any damaged slab sections, and make sure the fix matches the problem in front of us.
Yes, and that's the advantage of using a full-service general contractor instead of a foundation-only company. Once the foundation is stable, the same team can patch the drywall cracks, re-hang the doors that stuck, reset the trim, and put the inside of the house back to right — so you're not lining up a second contractor to clean up after the first.
Some jobs do and some don't. For straightforward repairs we can handle it directly; when a job calls for an engineer's report or a designed fix, we'll tell you that up front rather than guessing. If it's beyond what makes sense for us to take on, we'll say so — we'd rather be straight with you than sell you the wrong repair.
