Houston-based since 1999, just 50 minutes from Duratech HQ. Free inspections in El Lago with engineered pier solutions and a lifetime transferable warranty.
El Lago is a small lakeside community on the north shore of Clear Lake near NASA's Johnson Space Center. Built largely in the 1960s for NASA engineers, it's a tight-knit waterfront town of mid-century homes with a strong yacht-club, sailing culture.
Lake-edge construction on filled-in shoreline creates ongoing soil-consolidation problems. Many original 1960s slabs were never designed for the soil conditions we now know are problematic. Hurricane Ike (2008) caused widespread foundation damage in this area.
