Solid Foundations, Built with Precision from the Ground Up
At Hill Construction, every successful build starts with a solid foundation. Our team understands that structural integrity begins underground—with excavation, formwork, and reinforcement that set the stage for everything that follows. We provide dependable foundation solutions for commercial, institutional, and mixed-use buildings across Louisiana.
Whether your project involves slab-on-grade systems, deep footings, or structural piers, our approach ensures every foundation is stable, code-compliant, and built for long-term performance. Led by Terence and Travis Hill, each job is executed with engineering precision and trusted local oversight.
Foundations aren’t one-size-fits-all. Our team evaluates soil types, drainage profiles, building loads, and project timelines to select and implement the most appropriate foundation system. This site-specific planning reduces risk, prevents delays, and ensures long-term stability.
We begin with site surveys and coordinate with geotechnical engineers to determine load-bearing capacity and subsurface conditions. When challenges arise—like unstable soil or high groundwater—we apply solutions such as over-excavation, engineered fill, or deep foundation alternatives.
Excavation is completed using GPS-guided equipment to meet elevation targets. We manage water intrusion and prepare formwork with exacting standards for square, level, and clean results. Rebar placement follows design specs and passes all inspections.
Concrete is monitored throughout pouring for slump, temperature, and curing to meet structural benchmarks. Whether pouring shallow slabs or installing deep caissons, our focus stays on performance, longevity, and compliance.
Every successful build begins with a strong foundation—and at Hill Construction, that process starts long before the concrete is poured. We begin by reviewing site conditions, coordinating with structural and geotechnical engineers, and developing a clear, step-by-step plan. This proactive approach ensures a safer job site, smoother workflow, and longer-lasting results.
Our team delivers a full spectrum of foundation services for commercial and institutional buildings. Every stage—excavation, formwork, reinforcement, pouring, and inspection—is executed with precision and accountability to align with project specifications and schedule.
We offer:
Slab-on-Grade Foundations – A practical choice for one-story commercial spaces, offering efficiency and cost savings.
Pier and Beam Systems – Ideal for sites with unstable soil or flood risks, allowing for structural separation and utility access.
Footings and Stem Walls – Provide critical support for structural walls, elevated platforms, and utility-intensive areas.
Deep Foundations – Engineered for heavier structures and challenging soil conditions, including caissons, drilled shafts, and driven piles.
Reinforced Pads and Equipment Bases – Designed to support rooftop units, backup generators, or pre-engineered steel systems.
Every foundation we install is documented through inspection reports and construction logs to ensure full compliance with engineering standards and local building codes.
We use advanced tools to ensure each foundation meets the highest standards. Laser levels, soil compactors, and automated rebar tying tools improve speed and accuracy. These investments help us maintain project timelines without cutting corners.
Concrete is pumped with care using reach systems to access tight or elevated spaces. Modular formwork systems keep job sites organized and reduce waste. We control concrete curing with protective covers or chemical agents depending on the application.
Every material is pre-approved through our submittal process. Digital logs help us track pours, inspections, weather, and more in real time. This documentation protects your timeline and your investment.
Our crews follow OSHA trenching and excavation safety protocols. We use shoring, signage, and confined space protections where required. Every job is built safely, from ground prep to finished slab.
We deliver solid foundations without surprises—because the right tools and training make the difference.
No two projects are alike, and many come with foundation challenges that require creative problem-solving. At Hill Construction, we’re experienced in adapting plans and offering alternatives that maintain quality and timing.
Tight downtown lots, unpredictable soils, and flood-prone zones are part of the landscape we know how to navigate. We’ve worked on sites with inches of clearance between structures and sites requiring extensive dewatering.
In some cases, we revise pour schedules to accommodate supply chain needs or weather delays. We consult with engineers to consider alternate materials or post-tension systems for flexibility and speed.
Foundation coordination with utilities, easements, and other subsurface conflicts is also part of our daily process. We do what it takes to keep progress moving.
We solve problems with the same care and ownership that we bring to every stage of the build.
Hill Construction serves a wide range of clients, which means our foundation work must be versatile and scalable. We tailor every detail to suit the type of structure, occupancy, and surrounding conditions.
Every structure demands its own kind of strength from the ground up. Whether it’s bearing the weight of diagnostic imaging machines in hospitals or supporting high-traffic entryways in retail stores, foundations must be designed with purpose. At Hill Construction, we align every detail of your foundation with the performance needs and safety standards of your building type.
Medical Facilities – Precision-formed pads and reinforced slabs to support imaging equipment and mechanical loads.
Retail Buildings – Efficient slab pours for open floor plans and quick tenant turnover.
Industrial Projects – High-strength concrete with chemical resistance and heavy-load tolerance.
Education Centers – Long-span slabs for gyms, classrooms, and auditorium spaces.
We sync our foundation work with your architect, engineers, and overall construction schedule so vertical builds proceed without delays.
Foundations demand attention to detail, and that’s why our leadership is directly involved. Terence and Travis Hill oversee critical phases including layout, formwork, reinforcement, pouring, and final inspections.
They coordinate with engineers to verify subsurface conditions, manage on-site field changes, and ensure final execution matches the design. Issues are addressed early—never left to chance.
We photograph, document, and archive each phase of the foundation process for your records. These materials support warranty work and make future renovations easier.
When Hill Construction builds your foundation, it’s done with direct accountability and long-term confidence.
We offer specialty services to meet specific foundation requirements that go beyond typical footings and slabs. These techniques are particularly useful on difficult or constrained job sites.
Some projects require extra precision, alternative materials, or corrective techniques to ensure safety and performance. Whether you’re building on a steep slope, replacing a failed slab, or retrofitting an existing facility, our team brings the specialty knowledge and hands-on tools to get it done right.
Helical Piers – Fast and reliable support for lightweight structures or weak soils.
Structural Fill & Compaction – Replace expansive or wet soils with compacted engineered material.
Concrete Retaining Walls – Hold grade and integrate with structural slabs.
Underpinning Systems – Strengthen or extend existing footings for additions or increased loads.
Slab Repairs & Re-Leveling – Address cracking, sinking, or instability in existing foundations.
These services are delivered in coordination with your engineers to maintain structural continuity and compliance.
Clients choose Hill Construction for foundations because we bring structural insight, project discipline, and leadership integrity to every job. We’re not just pouring concrete—we’re laying the groundwork for your building’s success.
