Clear Expectations
Project Value
Timely Deliverty
We set clear expectations
The most common oversight we hear in the foundation repair industry is that the company did not set clear expectations and communication from the initial contact to project completion. Not with us!
At Risen Foundation Solutions - we created a Single Point of Contact process to eliminate the "Abbott and Costello" approach to project management. Our solution is to have one point of contact from the evaluation to project completion to oversee your foundation repair.
Although each project manager has a supporting cast of leaders, there are no "salesman" that then hand off the project to someone else who has not invested the time and energy into you personally, nor your home's specific situation and needs. .
We provide excellent Value
There are many companies that provide steel solutions in Texas but also alternatives that we have found are sub-par. Of those companies that use a comparable structural steel solution that provides lifetime results in stabilizing your foundation we have a unique local approach. The difference at Risen is our ability to provide a customized solution for your home. We are able to accomplish this through our manufacturing and fabrication shop located in the heart of San Antonio. We source raw steel, and then cut and weld the material into the customized elements that will be assembled and constructed at the project site. By manufacturing our piers in-house, we are able to pass those cost savings down to you.
But it doesn't stop there! Once our piers are installed, we have a
best-in-class Foundation Lift team that executes a consistently positive result and stabilization, leaving you with new elevations to stabilize the home. Not only are our lift officers hand selected by our Chief Foundation Officer, they go through a rigorous training process of internal certification. That process is then proven by third party structural engineers that certify the lift and stabilization finalizing the project and certifying the work performed
Timely Delivery
This entire process should not only have high quality, but should be delivered in a timely manner. Our Project Managers are expected to deliver the following:
- Timely arrival to your initial evaluation
- 48-hour proposal guarantee
- Start project on scheduled day, and on scheduled time
- Crews arrive on time, daily
- Project manager communication delivered proactively and timely
- 5-day project completion target
Navigating the Permit Process — Made Easy with Risen Foundation Solutions
At Risen Foundation Solutions, we understand that dealing with city permits, inspections, and engineering paperwork can feel overwhelming — especially when every city has its own unique set of rules and timelines. That’s why we go the extra mile to help homeowners navigate the entire permit process from start to finish.
Our goal is to make foundation repair as simple and stress-free as possible — to truly “Lift the Fear” every step of the way.

When your foundation repair project requires permits or engineering documentation, we’ll coordinate everything needed to stay compliant with local regulations. From initial paperwork to final inspection, our experienced team works directly with city offices, inspectors, and engineers to ensure your project is completed correctly and efficiently.

- Copies of pier system details and proposals
- Assumption letters, inspection forms, and more
- Guidance through permit fees and submission timelines
Every City Has Different Rules — We Know Them Well
Across Central and South Texas, each municipality has its own permitting process. Some cities — such as Austin, Boerne, and Bulverde — require both inspections and engineer’s letters, while others like China Grove or New Braunfels only need engineering documentation.
In areas like Alamo Heights, Castle Hills, and Leon Valley, additional materials such as pier system specs or soil reports may also be required.
And in some smaller communities like D’Hanis or certain parts of Blanco, no permit is needed at all.
No matter where your home is located — whether it’s in San Antonio, Austin, Kerrville, Cibolo, Kyle, or Pleasanton — our team knows how to work with each city’s inspection department to ensure everything is completed the right way, the first time.
Let Us Handle the Hard Part
From submitting applications and scheduling inspections to gathering engineer’s letters and coordinating with city officials, we make the process smooth and transparent. You’ll always know what’s happening and when — without having to deal with the red tape yourself.
