I live in West Houston (I-10 and Beltway 8). I've had 4-5 foundation repair companies come out to provide a concrete slab foundation assessment / evaluation. They all differ quite a bit. I would like to get an unbiased structural engineer to come out and provide their detailed evaluation of the foundation and provide their suggestion on how to proceed so I can figure out which foundation repair company to use.

I did some research and came upon the following structural engineering firms in Houston:

- Gerard Duhon (I read he is semi-retired)
- Hedderman Services
- Professional Engineering Inspections, Inc
- Houston Foundation Inspections (Matt Gray; son of the defunct Michael Gray)
- Crosstown Engineering

Do you have any feedback on any of these structural engineers or any other recommendations? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Note: a few years back, I used Texas Structural Engineers for a different home and they weren't very helpful. They sent out a recent college grad with very limited experience that didn't provide any detailed / useful feedback.

I used Hedderman in the past on a home structural warranty claim. After having them do the inspection I filed the request with the builder who then sent out 2 other engineers to try and refute the measurements. The Hedderman report stood and I got my repair done under warranty.
