Wood to Concrete Conversion.
Replace failing wood floors with solid concrete.
Wood to concrete conversion is our permanent fix for older RGV homes built on aging wooden subfloors. We remove the rotted wood, prep the ground, and pour an engineered concrete slab — ending the stabilization issues, termite damage, and moisture rot that wood floors in the Rio Grande Valley can't escape.
Permanent Stability
A poured concrete slab eliminates the flex, bounce, and sag of an aging wooden subfloor.
No More Pests
Termites, carpenter ants, and rodents lose the wood they need to nest and tunnel under your home.
Stops Rot & Moisture
Engineered slab with vapor barrier ends the rot, mildew, and humidity that destroy wood floors in the RGV.
From rotted wood to a solid slab.
We handle the full conversion — demolition of the failing wood, ground prep, vapor barrier, rebar grid, and a finished concrete pour ready for your new flooring.
- Demolition of failing wood subfloor and joists
- Removal of pest-damaged and rotted material
- Soil compaction and grade preparation
- Vapor barrier and rebar reinforcement
- Engineered concrete slab pour and finish
- Floor ready for tile, vinyl, or any finish
Methods we use to convert wood to concrete.
Converting an old pier-and-beam home to a permanent concrete foundation is a coordinated lift, demo, and pour. Here are the techniques our crew uses to do it without damaging the home above.
Synchronized Hydraulic Jacking
We hydraulically lift the entire home off its existing piers in unison so the demo crew can work safely underneath without the structure shifting.
Wood Subfloor Demolition
Old joists, sills, and rotted subfloor cut out and hauled off. We strip the underside back to clean ground before any new work begins.
Soil Compaction & Grading
Subgrade compacted to spec and graded for proper drainage so the new slab rests on stable base — not loose fill that will settle in a year.
Vapor Barrier Installation
Heavy-mil polyethylene vapor barrier laid across the prepped subgrade to block the ground moisture that destroyed the original wood floor.
Rebar Grid & Reinforcement
Engineered rebar grid tied across the entire pour with proper chair spacing — the steel that keeps the slab from cracking on RGV expansive clay.
Engineered Concrete Pour
Mixed-design concrete poured, screeded, floated, and finished in a single continuous pour. Cured under controlled conditions before the home is lowered.
