Soil Stabilization In Lubbock, TX

We have the EcSS 3000 solution– a method that has been around since the early 90s, and has been used to treat residential and commercial properties. This solution is cost-effective and reduces future upkeep costs.

In the Lubbock, TX area, clay soil is the dominant type; unfortunately, it is highly expansive. When this type of clay comes into contact with water, it holds onto water and makes the clay particles expand away from each other.

As the clay expands, it can push against the foundation of your home. Then, when it finally dries out, the clay particles retract. This type of repetitive expansion and contraction causes damage to your foundation.

The EcSS 3000 solution is going to change the molecular level of the clay. It makes the clay soil unable to hold tons of moisture and expand, which makes it more stable and eliminates the upheaval often seen in foundations without this stabilization.

What is great about this system is that we don’t have to use tons of equipment to treat your soil. This is a minor procedure that can be completed in one day, without intruding into the home or even tearing up your ground. It is also environmentally friendly, so you can trust that the treatment will not cause any side effects to the groundwater, pets, etc.
