What We Offer

Structural Repair & Reinforcement Services

Structural work is not a DIY project and it's not a job for a general handyman. It requires licensed contractors with real experience — and that's exactly what Urban General brings to every job.

🏗️

Load-Bearing Wall Modifications

Opening up your floor plan often means removing load-bearing walls — one of the most structurally sensitive tasks in home renovation. We assess the load path, design the correct beam and post solution, pull the necessary permits, and execute the work with full structural integrity preserved.

🔩

Foundation Repairs

DFW's expansive clay soils are hard on foundations. Cracks, settlement, and shifting are common across the metroplex. We diagnose the cause, identify the appropriate repair method, and restore your foundation to a stable, code-compliant condition — with documentation you can provide to future buyers or insurers.

📏

Floor Stabilization

Soft spots, bouncy floors, squeaking subfloors, and uneven surfaces are signs of joist damage or subfloor failure. We expose the problem, replace or sister damaged joists, repair subfloor sheathing, and restore your floors to level and solid before any finish flooring goes back down.

📋

Code Compliance Work

Inherited a property with unpermitted additions, improper structural work, or code violations? We assess the existing conditions, develop a remediation plan, file the appropriate permits with local DFW municipalities, and bring the work into full code compliance — so you can sell, refinance, or insure without issues.

Know the Signs

When to Call a Structural Contractor

These are common warning signs in DFW homes that indicate a structural assessment is needed. If you're seeing any of these, don't wait.

⚠️

Diagonal Cracks at Door & Window Corners

Cracks radiating from the corners of openings often indicate foundation movement or settlement — a common issue in DFW's clay soil conditions.

⚠️

Doors or Windows That Stick or Won't Close

Frames that have shifted out of square are a classic sign of foundation movement or structural framing issues that need professional evaluation.

⚠️

Bouncy, Soft, or Uneven Floors

Floors that flex underfoot or feel soft in certain areas typically indicate damaged or undersized floor joists or failed subfloor sheathing.

⚠️

Visible Cracks in Brick or Exterior

Stair-step cracks in brick veneer or exterior masonry walls often follow foundation movement and should be evaluated before they expand.

⚠️

Sagging Ceilings or Roof Lines

A roofline that dips or a ceiling that sags may indicate rafter failure, ridge board issues, or bearing wall problems requiring immediate attention.
