Editorial Review
Our Take on Baird Foundation Repair
Baird earns its 4.9 for clear explanations and tidy crews, and its crawl space and concrete sealing work is real but sits beside a larger foundation business. Homeowners who need drain tile, sump pumps or exterior drainage should look at specialists elsewhere on this list. Pick Baird when moisture and structure are tangled together under a pier and beam house.

Company Background
About Baird Foundation Repair
A Houston homeowner who hired Baird Foundation Repair to fix a driveway wrote that the crew filled in where the sublayer had washed out from under the concrete, repaired the cracks and filled every expansion joint. That is water damage work, and it is a fair picture of where this company fits on a waterproofing list. Baird is a foundation contractor first. Its Houston office at 13000 Emmett Road, in the Satsuma Estates area of northwest Houston, sells slab and pier and beam repair, and it adds crawl space encapsulation, vapor barriers and moisture control, plus PolyLevel concrete lifting, expansion joint sealant, crack repair and concrete sealant. Its website does not list French drains, sump pumps or exterior drainage as services, although a crawl space page discusses drainage systems and protective wall coatings as ways to keep water out.
The company describes itself as a family owned Texas business carrying on a tradition started by William Baird, and says it has operated for over 55 years. John and Melanie Chaney are listed as president and vice president, and the Houston team page names system design specialists Andrew, Daniel, Charles and De'Aundre. Reviewers name Jesus, Fernando, Justin, Kyle and Zach, and describe clean job sites, patient explanations and estimates without a hard sell.
Baird Foundation Repair holds 4.9 stars from 377 Google reviews, read October 21, 2026. The website advertises transferable warranties, lifetime coverage on select foundation repairs, financing through Aqua Finance and GreenSky, and a free inspection. It lists BBB accreditation with an A+ rating and a 2022 BBB Torch Award for Ethics. No contractor licence number appears on the site. Texas has no state waterproofing licence, plumbing work falls under the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners at tsbpe.texas.gov, and the City of Houston requires permits for certain work, so ask for permit details in writing.
This company suits homeowners whose water problem sits under a pier and beam house or along a slab and driveway. It suits less well anyone who needs interior drain tile, a sump pump or exterior excavation and drainage, since none are listed. Before booking, ask which crawl space moisture steps are included, who performs the work, what the warranty covers for encapsulation, and which permits apply. Confirm the Houston phone number too, because the website shows a different Houston number than Google does.

Baird Foundation Repair FAQs
Is Baird Foundation Repair licensed to do waterproofing in Houston?
Texas has no state waterproofing licence, so there is no licence number to look up for this trade. Baird's website lists no contractor licence number, but it does show BBB accreditation with an A+ rating and a 2022 BBB Torch Award for Ethics. Plumbing work falls under the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners (tsbpe.texas.gov), and the City of Houston requires permits for certain work, so ask Baird which permits apply to your job and request them in writing.
What are Baird Foundation Repair's hours in Houston, and do they do emergency calls?
The Houston office at 13000 Emmett Road lists Monday to Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Google, and it is closed on weekends. Baird's website does not mention emergency or after-hours service, so call (713) 575-2901 during office hours and ask whether urgent water problems can be scheduled quickly. The website shows a different Houston number, (713) 533-8174, so confirm which line reaches the Houston team.
