FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What type of foundation is best for Houston's soil?

Houston's expansive clay soil requires a foundation that can handle movement and shifting. Post-tension slab foundations are the most common choice in the Greater Houston area because the tensioned cables help resist cracking caused by soil expansion and contraction. Rebar-reinforced slabs are also used depending on the project type and load requirements.

What is the difference between rebar and post-tension reinforcement?

Rebar reinforcement uses steel bars placed inside the concrete to add tensile strength. Post-tension reinforcement uses high-strength steel cables that are tensioned after the concrete cures, compressing the slab and making it more resistant to cracking. Both methods are effective — the right choice depends on the soil conditions, load requirements, and project type.

How long does a concrete foundation take to pour and cure?

The pour itself typically takes 1 day depending on the size of the slab. Concrete reaches initial set within 24–48 hours and is strong enough for light work within 7 days. Full design strength is reached at 28 days. For post-tension foundations, cables are typically stressed at 7–10 days after the pour.
