When your home’s foundation is moving, you don’t need a quick patch. You need a solution built to last in real Texas soils.
Dura Lock XD combines our proven Dura Lock piling technology with steel pipe segments that drive deeper into hard, shifting ground for maximum stability under your home.
How Dura Lock XD Works
Dura Lock XD is a hybrid steel-and-concrete system designed to reach stronger load-bearing strata and lock your foundation into place. Each piling works as a single, continuous support under your home.
- Steel pipe starter sections penetrate tough, dense surface soils and allow the system to reach extra depth where standard concrete-only pilings may stop too soon.
- Precast concrete sections below the steel provide long-term strength, stability, and resistance to corrosion.
- Our proprietary Dura Lock connection locks every segment together, so the piling behaves as one solid column underneath your foundation.
The result is a deeper, stronger, more durable repair designed for the most challenging parts of Texas.
When to Choose Dura Lock XD
Dura Lock XD is ideal for homes with:
Highly expansive clay soils and significant seasonal movement
Hardened, difficult-to-penetrate layers where depth really matters
Ongoing settlement issues where previous repairs have failed
In these situations, the extra depth and hybrid construction of Dura Lock XD can provide the performance standard systems may not achieve.
