Our Services

Services built for Washington County homes and businesses.

Foundation repair

Steel piers driven deep into stable soil near Dewey and Bartlesville to stop settlement.

Foundation Repair & Piers

Steel and concrete piers stabilize homes sinking into clay soil. We drive piers to solid bedrock 10–14 feet down, typical for Washington County's geology. Perfect for older Bartlesville homes and newer construction showing cracks.

  • Load-tested for safety and durability
Concrete waterproofing

Waterproofing membranes protect Caney River-area basements from moisture intrusion.

Waterproofing Service

Waterproofing service in Washington County, OK keeps water out of basements and crawl spaces. Heavy seasonal rains and the Caney River valley's high water table require proper drainage and membranes. We seal cracks and install vapor barriers.

  • Basement and crawl space sealing
  • Vapor barriers and drainage systems
  • Prevents mold, mildew, and rot
Mudjacking service

Polyurethane foam injection lifts sunken concrete slabs in Ochelata and surrounding areas.

Mudjacking & Slab Leveling

Sunken patios, driveways, and sidewalks are common in Washington County where soil voids and washout create tripping hazards. Mudjacking and polyurethane foam injection lift concrete back to level without removal.

  • Fills voids beneath concrete slabs
  • Restores proper drainage slope
  • Less invasive than slab replacement
Structural concrete repair

Historic concrete repairs honor Dewey's Portland Cement heritage while reinforcing modern homes.

Why Local Expertise Matters

Oklahoma's clay soil and seasonal extremes demand contractors who know the region.

Red clay soil challenges

Red clay shrinks in summer droughts and swells in wet seasons, driving foundation movement.

Clay Soil Challenges

Washington County's red dirt is clay-heavy and moisture-sensitive. During dry summers, soil shrinks away from foundations. Fall and spring rains cause heave and expansion. This cycle creates cracks, bowing walls, and settling. We understand these patterns and drill piers deep enough to bypass the unstable layers.

Temperature swings

Extreme heat and cold force concrete slabs to expand and contract, creating pressure and cracks.

Heat & Humidity Stress

Bartlesville summers regularly exceed 90 degrees; winters drop below freezing. This temperature swing causes concrete to expand and contract repeatedly. Combined with high humidity and seasonal flooding near the Caney River, slab-on-grade foundations crack and settle faster than in milder climates. Waterproofing and proper drainage are essential.

Caney River region

The Caney River and regional water table create hydrostatic pressure on foundations.

Water & Drainage Issues

Heavy spring rains and proximity to the Caney River mean high groundwater in low-lying areas. Basements in Dewey and near Ochelata often face seepage and hydrostatic pressure. We install French drains, sump systems, and membranes to manage water and protect foundations long-term.

Frequently Asked Questions

What causes foundation problems in Washington County?

Clay-rich soil that shrinks and swells with seasonal moisture changes, combined with temperature extremes and high groundwater near the Caney River. These conditions are typical for northeast Oklahoma and cause settlement, heave, and cracking.

Do I need permits for foundation repair in Bartlesville?

Yes. The City of Bartlesville requires permits for foundation repair and structural work. We handle the permitting process and ensure all repairs meet current building codes. Call 918.338.4244 for the Building Services Division if you have questions.

How deep do piers need to be in Washington County?

Typically 10–14 feet to reach stable soil below the unstable clay layers. Depth depends on your site's geology. We test the soil during inspection and drive piers to the point of rejection—as far as they will go into solid ground.

Can you repair an older home in Dewey or Copan?

Yes. Historic homes built on shallow foundations are common in Dewey and rural Washington County. We upgrade aging foundations with piers and reinforcement while preserving the structure. Each repair is designed for your home's specific age and condition.

What should I look for to know if my foundation needs repair?

Watch for diagonal cracks in drywall, sticking doors and windows, uneven floors, cracks in exterior brick, and gaps between walls and ceiling. Call for a free inspection—these signs often mean soil settlement or movement is happening.

Do you offer waterproofing for basements in high-water-table areas?

Yes. Homes near the Caney River or in low-lying areas often face seepage and hydrostatic pressure. We install vapor barriers, French drains, sump systems, and sealants to protect basements and crawl spaces year-round.
