Pier-and-beam and structural repair, for the jobs that can't wait.
When masonry fails or a beam sags, you don't need a sales visit, you need the load carried. Melada handles pier-and-beam foundation work, structural beam replacement, and emergency shoring for homes and commercial storefronts. We're based in Ferris and work across Ellis County and the wider Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. Foundation repair is structural carpentry and masonry, and that's the trade we come from.
- Crews with 40+ combined years in the trade
- One point of contact, start to finish

Foundation repair in Dallas is a crowded, high-pressure business. We keep it simple: we look at the actual structure, tell you what's carrying load and what isn't, and give you a clear scope and price before anything starts. If it's an emergency, say so when you call, the phone rings 7 AM to 7 PM, every day.
We're based in Ferris, so Ellis County is home ground, Waxahachie, Midlothian, Red Oak, Ennis, Palmer and Lancaster are a short drive, and Cedar Hill, DeSoto and south Dallas are close behind. That matters for foundation work. North Texas sits on expansive clay that swells when it's wet and shrinks when it's dry, and that seasonal movement is what shows up later as cracked brick, sticking doors and sloping floors. Being nearby means we can come look at it while it's still small.
