    I originally selected Baird Foundation Repair for a patio stabilization project expecting professional integrity and quality work. Before the initial work began, I showed the foreman where the pool pipes were located under the concrete.<br>While the initial foam injection went smoothly, the follow-up remedial work resulted in significant property damage and a complete lack of accountability.<br>When technicians returned to level two remaining sections, they drilled into a stable concrete area near the swimming pool—roughly 20 to 25 feet outside the agreed repair location. The crew pierced an active pool return line and injected PolyLevel foam directly into the pipe, completely clogging and disabling the system.<br>Under the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 17.41 et seq.), consumers expect services to be performed in a good and competent workmanlike manner. Causing damage to unrelated property while representing that work will be done competently constitutes an unacceptable practice.<br>When I was notified, Baird immediately deflected responsibility, citing liability waivers and alleging a pre-existing leak. An independent inspection by a certified pool specialist conclusively proved that no prior leak existed and that the failure was caused strictly by Baird’s crew drilling into the pipe. Despite clear evidence of damage outside their work zone and negligence by their technicians, Baird refuses to take responsibility or cover the $2,500 repair cost. Hiding behind fine-print waivers rather than correcting a direct mistake reflects a sincere lack of integrity. I cannot recommend their services.<br><br>In response to the owners reply:<br><br>Baird’s deflection ignores crucial facts: I explicitly pointed out the pool pipe locations under the slab prior to drilling. Choosing to drill directly into those areas was negligent, rushed, and reckless. They are correct that this didn't turn out as expected—I didn't expect Baird to drill through clearly identified pipes and cause $2,400 in damage.

    Foreman, Albert Garcia, and crew, John G. and Jordan V., did great professional work on my foundation, took the time to explain every step clearly, and were always in great spirits despite the hard work! They made a big job and expense feel less intimidating and helped me feel confident in the structure of my house.

Company Background

About Baird Foundation Repair

Baird Foundation Repair is the oldest family name on this list. William "H." Baird started the company in San Antonio in 1969, his son-in-law John learned the trade under him from 1981, and John and Melanie Baird have owned it since 1987. The San Antonio shop sits at 726 Hot Wells Boulevard on the South Side, and the Google listing carries 4.9 stars from 1,941 reviews.

Baird's own pages explain San Antonio soil plainly: the clay swells in wet seasons and shrinks in long droughts, so a slab that looks fine in May can open cracks by August. For slabs the company installs steel push piers, which it says reach greater depths than other systems. For older pier and beam houses it repairs and replaces supports and uses SmartJack crawl space stabilizers, and the company also levels and seals driveways, patios and sidewalks. The site offers a free inspection, tells homeowners to expect elevation measurements and a clear written quote, and backs pier systems with transferable lifetime warranties.

Reviewers name the field crews again and again. One homeowner listed Rene, RJ and Zack for an on-time, careful pier job, and another said a 39-year-old house was stabilized over a little more than two weeks with the yard left close to how it started. Foreman Albert and his crew were praised for a two-day foundation job, and Valerie and Jake for driveway leveling. The sharpest recent complaint, from November 2026, came from a homeowner who said a crew drilled into a pool return line during patio foam lifting; Baird replied that the area was in scope and that its contract excludes damage to underground lines. Mark pipe and utility locations and read that clause before work starts.

4.9 from 1,941 Google reviews, read November 11, 2026.

Baird reports an A+ BBB rating and says it was named a 2026 Business of the Year honoree. The office is open 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM on weekdays.

Baird Foundation Repair suits homeowners who want a long-established local family company with steel piers and a written transferable warranty. It suits less well anyone shopping only on price, and a testimonial on its own site admits the price came as a shock. Before booking, ask how deep the piers will go, whether an independent structural engineer will review the plan, and for the warranty transfer terms. Texas has no state licence for foundation repair, so those documents carry the weight.
