Houston, TX (February 8, 2008) – RAM JACK® Foundations today announced its entry into the Houston market with the Ultimate Foundation solution, which is engineered for zero tolerance – zero failures – and comes with a Lifetime Transferable Warranty.

The Ultimate Foundation is a combination of two products, RAM JACK® and SUREVOID®, which together produce a fully suspended foundation that prevents settling and heaving. RAM JACK Helical Steel Piles are installed on exterior and interior grade beams and deep driven to load bearing strata where they lock into place. SUREVOID carton forms are reinforced corrugated paper products that deteriorate with the absorption of moisture that produces a voided space. Together, this approach prevents downward settling & upward heaving before it starts.

“My prediction is that within the next two to three years, fully suspended foundations will be the standard foundation for the new construction of both commercial buildings and residential homes,” said Ron Baker, Owner & President of RAM JACK Foundations – Houston.

There are many advantages to having Helical Steel Piles supporting a foundation, compared to using the traditional drilled concrete piers. The installation is clean with no spoils and without excavation. Weather delays are a thing of the past with Helical Piles and they can be loaded immediately after installation. The Helical Piles can also be removed anytime and come with a Lifetime Transferable warranty.

Year after year, building on less than adequate soils causes a large percentage of foundation damage in the Houston area. Now there’s a proven method that will prevent future damage, which ultimately will save time and money.

RAM JACK started business in 1968 and has grown to an industry leader with offices throughout the Southwest and the United States. RAM JACK is an internationally recognized structural repair company with the latest foundation repair technology and a tradition for the highest standards in customer care. Their patented system has been proven on countless homes and in a wide variety of commercial applications.
