Slab-on-grade foundations are common across newer San Antonio homes, but they come in a few forms.
The 3 Types
1. Monolithic slab — poured in one piece, fast and economical. 2. Stem wall (T-shaped) slab — footing poured first, then walls, then the slab. 3. Floating (raft) slab — designed to move as a unit with the soil.
Why It Matters for Repair
Each type reacts differently to San Antonio's expansive clay. Our technicians identify your slab type during the free inspection and tailor the repair method — usually steel piers and precision leveling — accordingly.
