1,096 Built Sqft. property in Houston, Texas, ground moves here, house on pier and beams.
One side of house has moved enough to tell. I've had 2 people come look at the property.

Offer 1: $4,000 to level the property, lifetime warranty, with a small variance. (this guy explained his system, what they would put in place, provided a general blueprint)

Offer 2: $3,000 to level property, 1 year warranty. (this guy told me that it has been leveled before so it already has the beams it needs in place.  Explained how to remove hardwood flooring to release the pressure pushing them up. very informative guy)

Feel free to recommend any foundation people you know in Houston.

I've included a picture of the hardwood flooring and would appreciate feedback please.
