AREAS WE SERVE

Where We Work Across Dallas-Fort Worth

Every City We Cover, and What the Ground Does There

Texas Structural Concepts works throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, residential and commercial, and alongside insurance carriers on claims. Soil and drainage behave differently from one county to the next, so the notes below are what we actually see in each area. If your city is not listed, call (469) 333-0335, because chances are we cover it.

Core Dallas-Fort Worth coverage

Wylie, TX

Our home base. Wylie sits on the blackland clay belt, where the ground can move several inches between a dry August and a wet November, and most of the housing stock is slab on grade.

Sachse, TX

Same clay belt as Wylie, with a lot of late nineties and early two thousands construction now old enough to show its first real movement.

Murphy, TX

Newer subdivisions on cut and fill lots, where the difference between the cut side and the fill side of a street often shows up in the slabs.

Plano, TX

Collin County prairie clay with a wide range of build dates, from seventies ranch homes to recent construction, each with its own failure pattern.

Allen, TX

High plasticity clay and a lot of sloped lots, which makes grading and downspout placement as important as anything happening under the slab.

McKinney, TX

Older homes near the square sit on very different soil than the newer subdivisions west of 75, and the repair approach is not the same for both.

Frisco, TX

Fast build-out on engineered fill. When movement shows here it is usually tied to drainage or irrigation rather than to the original construction.

Prosper, TX

Large lots and long driveways on expansive soil, where concrete flatwork tends to complain before the house does.

Richardson, TX

Mature neighborhoods with sixties and seventies slabs, original cast iron drain lines and tree canopy pulling moisture out of the clay.

Garland, TX

A wide mix of ages and a lot of homes where a plumbing leak under the slab, not the soil, is what started the movement.

Mesquite, TX

Older housing stock where interior cracking and sticking doors are common, and where documentation matters if a claim is involved.

Rowlett, TX

Lake Ray Hubbard shoreline soils, with fill on many lots and drainage that has to be taken seriously.

Rockwall, TX

Sloped lots above the lake, where surface water moves fast and retaining, grading and gutters do most of the protective work.

Forney, TX

Newer subdivisions east of the county line built on farmland, where first-generation drainage was often minimal.

Dallas, TX

Pier and beam in the older neighborhoods, slab everywhere else, so the evaluation starts with what is actually under the floor.

Irving, TX

Homes and commercial buildings on the west side of the county, where soil behaves differently than it does out toward Collin County.

Carrollton, TX

A lot of eighties and nineties slabs now at the age where the first elevation survey is worth having on file.

Lewisville, TX

Mixed soils and plenty of homes near the lake, where water management is usually the first conversation.

Grapevine, TX

Established neighborhoods with mature trees, which are one of the most underestimated causes of foundation movement in North Texas.

Denton, TX

North end of the metroplex, with a soil profile that shifts noticeably from one side of town to the other.

Grand Prairie, TX

Residential and light commercial work across a broad mix of build dates and lot conditions.

Arlington, TX

Tarrant County clay, older slabs and a fair amount of rental and investment property where a written evaluation carries weight.

Fort Worth, TX

West end of our coverage, with soil conditions that differ enough from Dallas County that the repair plan often looks different too.

Wylie and the Collin County clay belt

Lucas, TX

Acreage lots with septic and long driveways, where drainage and flatwork go first.

Rapid new construction on former farmland, with first-generation drainage.

Lakeside lots east of Wylie with fill soils and real drainage questions.

Older in-town homes mixed with new builds, two very different repair plans.

Sloped shoreline lots where runoff does the damage long before the soil does.

Heavy new construction along I-30 on ground that was pasture a decade ago.

Newer slabs east of Rockwall, with drainage that often was never finished.

Rural lots on expansive soil with little municipal drainage.

Quinlan, TX

Lake Tawakoni area homes, many on pier and beam.

A mix of century-old homes and new subdivisions, each with its own failure pattern.

Newer construction around the lake with drainage as the main variable.

Waxahachie, TX

Historic homes on pier and beam alongside new slab subdivisions.

Expanding build-out on some of the most expansive soil in the region.

Ennis, TX

Older in-town housing stock with long standing movement to document.
