Proudly Supporting Homes In The Heart Of The Lost Pines
From charming historic homes near downtown to newer properties in the Colony and Hunter’s Crossing, Bastrop offers the perfect blend of small-town character and growing neighborhoods. But no matter the age or style of your building, one thing remains true: foundation problems don’t fix themselves.
Bastrop sits on highly reactive clay soil that expands with moisture and shrinks during dry spells, creating unstable ground beneath your property. Over time, this movement leads to shifting slabs, settling piers and noticeable damage inside and outside your home or business.
At Hercules Foundation Repair, we’ve spent more than 45 years helping Central Texans tackle these exact challenges. As a third-generation, family-owned business, we bring reliable service, proven solutions and a commitment to doing right by our customers.
Bastrop’s Soil + Seasonal Challenges
The foundation issues we see across Bastrop are often tied to the region’s blackland clay. It reacts significantly to changes in moisture, which are common throughout the year — from spring rains to long, dry summers. This natural soil movement can:
- Shift or crack slab foundations
- Weaken or displace pier and beam supports
- Cause interior or exterior cracks in brick, drywall or ceilings
- Lead to uneven floors or sticking doors/windows
Older buildings near the river may be especially vulnerable due to softer soil and aging construction materials. Even newer structures can settle unexpectedly if the soil underneath wasn’t compacted correctly or if water drains poorly around the foundation.
The good news? These issues are repairable — with the right experience and approach.

House Leveling
If your floors slope or bounce, our team re-levels your structure to bring stability and safety back to your home.
