Beam leveling is the process of adjusting and stabilizing the beams that support a home or building. In pier and beam foundation systems, a series of piers (usually concrete or masonry) hold up horizontal beams. These beams carry the weight of the structure above, including flooring, walls, and roofing.
When the soil beneath the piers shifts or settles, it can cause the beams to become unlevel or lose support. Over time, this can lead to:
Uneven or sagging floors
Cracks in walls or ceilings
Doors and windows that don’t open or close properly
Creaking, bouncing, or spongy floors
Leveling the beams is necessary to restore balance to the structure and ensure the foundation performs as intended.
Understanding the Process
What Is Beam Leveling?

Our Beam Leveling Expertise
New Construction Beam Leveling
In new construction projects, it is critical to get the beam system set correctly from the beginning. If a home or building is constructed on an unlevel or unstable foundation, problems can begin appearing almost immediately and grow worse over time.
At D And H Construction, we work with builders, contractors, and property owners during the early stages of construction to ensure proper leveling of pier and beam foundations. This may involve:
Verifying that piers are installed at the correct height and spacing
Setting beams to the proper elevation before framing begins
Adjusting for elevation differences caused by soil conditions or excavation
Ensuring level support across the structure's footprint
We use precision tools to measure beam alignment and elevation, making sure every component is positioned accurately before framing or flooring is installed. This prevents costly corrections later and helps the structure stay stable for years to come.
Beam Leveling for Recently Built Homes
Even recently constructed homes can experience leveling issues if the original foundation was not properly designed or built. Oklahoma’s expansive clay soils are known to swell and shrink with seasonal moisture changes. If the soil beneath the piers wasn’t adequately compacted or if drainage was poorly managed, your home could shift within the first few years of occupancy.
Our team provides post-construction beam leveling services to correct early settlement or movement in pier and beam homes. We evaluate the current support system, check elevation levels throughout the house, and determine whether adjustment, reinforcement, or pier replacement is needed.
This service is ideal for homeowners experiencing:
Floor bounce or movement in specific rooms
Uneven transitions between flooring surfaces
Cracks developing in new drywall or tile
Noisy floors or separation between flooring and baseboards
By leveling the beams and resetting any shifting piers, we can help your new home regain balance and maintain its structural value.
Pier and Beam Leveling Services
Pier and beam leveling is often part of both new construction and existing home repairs. Our approach includes:
Inspection of all piers, beams, and subflooring
Identification of areas where support is compromised
Lifting beams to proper height using hydraulic equipment
Adding or replacing piers as needed
Reinforcing the structure with shims, new beams, or blocking
Our goal is not just to raise the beams but to make sure they stay level. We provide full support to prevent future movement and reduce stress on the rest of the home.
