Barney Ballard

Barney is trained in foundation engineering to determine the cause of the foundation failure and then to prepare an engineering plan to correct the broken foundation. Barney Ballard is an educated smart choice for a foundation assessment. The State of Texas or any governing body does not require Foundation Contractors to be licensed, and anyone who wants to be a foundation contracter can be. Rest assured Barney Ballard Corporation is a reputable state licensed consultant with Structural Engineering credentials and experience of over 45 years.

You should understand that not all foundations were poured level to begin with. Many foundations have been poured out of level with a slope from one side to the other. If you try to level a slab that was poured out of level, you will break the slab and cause structural damage to the house. The Barney Ballard Corporation warns consumers to not be fooled by foundation contractors that use fancy leveling tools and represents him or herself as an engineering expert.
