Quick Overview

iHow this is made

This summary is generated from the verified data on this profile: services, service area, credentials, warranty terms and the company's Google review record. It is reviewed by an editor before publishing and refreshed whenever the underlying data changes. Nothing here is asserted that is not stated elsewhere on this page.

Editorial Standards

Stratum Foundation Repair says every Dallas inspection starts with elevation readings across the whole slab, a look at grading and drainage, and a written report, and that it will tell you plainly if you do not need piers. It is a foundation company first, founded in 2006 by Ryan Hise, but it also installs French drains, surface drains, yard grading, downspout extensions and gutters as a separate maintenance service. The Dallas office is on Preston Road in Far North Dallas. Stratum holds a 4.9 Google rating from 58 reviews, read October 21, 2026, and lists an A+ Better Business Bureau rating and NFRA certification on its site. Inspections are free, financing runs up to 24 months at 0%, and pier repairs carry a lifetime transferable warranty. Dallas has no basement waterproofing market to speak of, so drainage correction around a slab is the realistic form of waterproofing here.

Editorial Review

Our Take on Stratum Foundation Repair

Stratum is a foundation firm that treats drainage as part of the same problem, which is how clay-soil Dallas actually works. It is a sound pick for slab homes with movement and water issues, and a poor fit for basement or crawl space waterproofing.

Best forDallas slab homes where drainage and foundation movement overlap

What We Like

  • Founded in 2006 by owner Ryan Hise, with 5,000+ repairs and 20,000+ inspections reported
  • Drainage service line covers French drains, surface drains, regrading, downspout extensions and gutters
  • Free inspection with written report, photos and slab elevation measurements
  • Lifetime transferable pier warranty, with claims reviewed by an independent licensed engineer
  • 0% financing for 6, 12 or 24 months, plus A+ BBB rating and NFRA certification listed on its site

Things to Consider

  • Foundation specialist first: no basement waterproofing, sump pump or crawl space encapsulation services are listed
  • The stated lifetime warranty covers pier repairs, and the site does not state warranty terms for drainage work
  • Site calls McKinney the main office and the Dallas suite is one of seven offices, so confirm which crew will visit

    I cannot rate Stratum's work because Ryan (Sales Mgr) did not sell me any. He did however spend alot of time with me explaining the different options for correcting my garage's foundation of which they did not perform those type services. He was very kind and professional - 'would hire if I had some work for them...

    One of their guys came out for an evaluation, he was extremely nice, very quick and efficient and was out my hair in no time. Highly recommend!

    Stratum did a fantastic job correcting the foundation issues our garage had developed. They corrected the issue, cleaned up all of the debris and redistributed all excess dirt along the perimeter of the house. From the quote to completion they had no issues answering any questions I had, and were willing to move and adjust schedules without an issue.

    Fantastic Company. Very professional on time and great quality of work. They have lifetime warranty for their work. So you hire them once and you need not worry about foundation issues for the time you are living in your home. And the warranty is transferable so the new owner can also take advantage of their services, if required. The initial free inspection, quotes were near perfect and overall experience was excellent. My neighbor had previously employed them and had good feedback which led me to hire Stratum. They did not disappoint me. A definite recommendation for foundation issues in Texas which are very common and easily fixed.

    Stratum recently did foundation work on our house. We had both warranty work and new work and they were extremely responsive, very communicative, professional and got the job done. Highly recommend.

Company Background

About Stratum Foundation Repair

Stratum Foundation Repair describes its Dallas inspection as a full slab elevation survey, a check of grading and drainage, and a written report with photos, and it says it will walk away from jobs that do not need repair. Owner Ryan Hise started the company in 2006 with one truck in McKinney. It now runs seven offices across Dallas-Fort Worth, including the Dallas office at 14875 Preston Road, and reports more than 5,000 repairs and 20,000 inspections.

The company is a foundation specialist, and that shapes how it fits a waterproofing ranking. Dallas homes sit on slabs over expansive clay, so water problems here show up as soil movement rather than wet basements. Stratum's maintenance service line addresses the water side directly: French drains, catch basins and channel drains for low spots, yard regrading to a slope of at least 6 inches over 10 feet, downspout extensions, seamless aluminum gutters and foundation watering systems. Its three pier systems, ST1, ST3 and ST10, handle the structural repairs when drainage alone is not enough.

Stratum serves neighborhoods such as Casa Linda, Lakewood, Lake Highlands, Far North Dallas and Preston Hollow, and its Dallas page notes the many slabs poured in the 1983 and 1984 building boom. Reviewers praise punctual crews and careful cleanup. One reviewer named Logun as the person who explained the process and answered every question, and another said the company never pushed extra work. Stratum shows 4.9 from 58 Google reviews, read October 21, 2026, and its site lists an A+ BBB rating and NFRA certification.

Free inspections, financing at 0% for 6, 12 or 24 months, and a lifetime transferable warranty on pier work are all stated on the site. The warranty transfers free within six months of repair and for a $225 fee afterward, and claims are reviewed by an independent licensed engineer. It requires the homeowner to keep reasonable drainage around the home.

This company suits Dallas homeowners whose cracks, sticking doors or pooling water point to clay movement and who want one firm to judge both. It suits less well anyone shopping for interior basement systems, sump pumps or crawl space encapsulation, none of which the site lists. Texas has no state waterproofing contractor licence, so check insurance, the Better Business Bureau record and Dallas city permit rules for structural work. For any plumbing work, use the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners lookup. Ask whether the drainage work carries its own warranty, since the stated warranty covers pier repairs.

Stratum Foundation Repair FAQs

  • Is Stratum Foundation Repair licensed in Dallas?

    Texas has no state waterproofing contractor licence, so there is no licence number to look up for this work. Stratum's site lists an A+ Better Business Bureau rating and NFRA certification, and says warranty claims are reviewed by an independent state-licensed engineer. Ask for proof of insurance, check the BBB record, confirm Dallas city permit rules for structural work, and use the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners lookup for any plumbing work.

  • What are Stratum Foundation Repair's hours, and do they do emergency calls?

    Stratum is open Monday through Friday, 7:30 AM to 6:00 PM, and closed Saturday and Sunday. Its site does not mention emergency or after-hours service. The Dallas office number is 469-340-3270, and most inspections are booked within 2 to 3 business days according to the contact page.

  • Does Stratum Foundation Repair offer a warranty and financing in Dallas?

    Yes to both. Pier repairs carry a lifetime transferable warranty, free to transfer within 6 months of repair and $225 afterward, with claims reviewed by an independent licensed engineer. Financing is offered at 0% with no payments for 6, 12 or 24 months. Inspections are free. The site does not state a separate warranty for drainage work, so ask before you sign.
