How DFW Slab works

Every business on this site was found in public Google Business Profile data, not submitted by a salesperson and not written by us. The current set was captured on August 3, 2026 and covers 234 companies across 16 Dallas–Fort Worth Metroplex cities.

The fields we keep from a profile are the factual ones:

• Business name, phone number, and website
• City and state (see the address note below)
• The service categories the profile itself names
• Google rating and review count, always shown with the capture date

We don’t copy profile photos or full review text wholesale, and we don’t write descriptions of businesses we haven’t heard from. Where a fact is missing from the source, the page omits it rather than filling the gap with something plausible.

Addresses. Many foundation companies run out of a home. Street addresses and precise coordinates are suppressed by default — both in what you see and in the machine-readable data behind the page — so a listing shows a city, not somebody’s house.

Listings are compiled from public Google Business Profile data, then reviewed by hand — one person, every listing — before they go live.

This is the step that separates this directory from a raw data dump, so it’s worth being specific about what it involves:

• Confirming the business is actually in foundation, structural, or concrete work — scraped category data pulls in plenty that isn’t
• Dropping records marked permanently closed
• Cutting service tags the source data doesn’t evidence, so a company only appears under a service its own profile names
• Merging duplicate records for the same business (same phone or same website domain)

What it is not: a site visit, a license check, an insurance check, a reference call, or an interview. It’s a data review by one person, and it’s the only thing the word “reviewed” means on this site.

Everything that clears the review pass is browsable here. But a profile that’s nothing more than a restatement of a Google Maps card isn’t worth putting into search results, so there’s a second, narrower gate for indexing: a listing is submitted to search engines only once it carries real content of its own — a substantive written description on the profile itself.

That gate deliberately counts only what the page actually shows you. It used to also accept a listing that had enough Google review text behind it, which was the wrong test: the review text wasn’t published on the profile, so a searcher arriving from Google would have landed on a page whose qualifying content they couldn’t see. Review material is now used the other way round — as source evidence a description is written from, cited as such — and never republished in bulk.

A profile that hasn’t cleared that bar yet stays visible and linked on this site exactly like any other; it’s just marked “don’t index” and left out of the sitemap until it has more to say. As profiles get enriched they cross the threshold on their own and enter search. Nothing is hidden from you to game a ranking, and nothing is published to search that we wouldn’t want a searcher to land on.

The same idea applies to city and service pages: a page exists because companies actually match it, not because the combination of words would make a good search query.

Listings we can’t re-confirm. Google profiles outlive businesses. Before each update we re-check every listing against the record we hold: whether the website it gives still responds, and whether its profile still shows recent activity. When two independent checks come back unanswered, that listing stays on the site with its own phone number and website, and stays browsable in the full directory — but we stop putting it forward on city and service pages and stop submitting it to search until someone confirms it. That is us declining to recommend a company we can’t stand behind today. It is not a statement that the business has closed, and we don’t make that claim about anyone.

City and service pages are ordered by Google rating weighted by review volume — a strong rating backed by more reviews ranks higher. No company can pay for position, and there are no paid placements on the site today.

Concretely, the sort is a company’s Google rating multiplied by a dampened measure of how many reviews back it up — so a 5.0 from six reviews doesn’t leapfrog a 4.8 from three hundred. That’s the whole formula. There’s no editorial thumb on the scale, no proximity weighting, and no relationship with any company that affects where it lands.

Which companies appear on a given page is a separate question:

• A company appears on a city page when its own data shows it serves that area.
• A company appears on a service page when its own profile names that service.
• Either way, a listing we can’t re-confirm is held off both — see the note above.

Paid listing tiers exist in the code and are shown on the pro page, but none of them are for sale today. If that changes, paid placements will be labeled where they appear and this section will be rewritten before the change ships — not after.

Texas requires no state license for foundation repair, and DFW Slab does not verify licensing or insurance. Confirm both directly with any company before you hire.

There is no Texas licensing board for foundation repair to check against, which is exactly why it matters that you ask each company directly for:

• Proof of general liability insurance (and a certificate, not a claim)
• Whether an engineer’s report is included, extra, or not offered
• What the warranty covers, for how long, and whether it transfers
• A written scope and price before any work starts

No listing here carries a “verified,” “licensed,” or “insured” badge, because no such check has been performed on any of them.

The assessment request form asks for your name, phone number, the property address or ZIP, and — optionally — what you’re seeing. It takes under a minute.

Your details go to DFW Slab and may be shared with listed companies to connect you. We don't sell your information.

What we can’t promise: how leads get routed to companies isn’t finalized. We can’t guarantee that a company will contact you, or how quickly, and we don’t sell exclusivity to anyone. If you want a callback today, the faster path is to open a couple of profiles from the directory and call the companies yourself — every profile shows the company’s own number.

Full detail on what’s collected and where it goes is in the privacy policy.

Ratings and review counts are a snapshot, not a live feed. Every one on this site is shown with the date it was captured — currently August 3, 2026, so you can judge how stale it is. When the data is re-captured, those dates update site-wide. We don’t claim a refresh schedule we haven’t committed to keeping.

Found something wrong? Business owners can request a correction, a claim, or a full removal by email; we’ll ask you to show you control the business before applying changes. Homeowners: tell us about disconnected numbers, closed businesses, or anything misleading.
