Houston-based since 1999, just 40 minutes from Duratech HQ. Free inspections in La Porte with engineered pier solutions and a lifetime transferable warranty.
La Porte sits on the western shore of Galveston Bay, with a long history as a port and oil town. Home to the Battleship Texas and the San Jacinto Monument, the city has both historic shore neighborhoods and newer inland subdivisions.
Bay-front and bayou-front homes sit on extremely soft alluvial clay that's been deposited over centuries. Foundation issues here are nearly universal in homes 30+ years old, especially after major storms. Hurricane Ike (2008) caused widespread structural damage that's still being repaired.
