Du-West Services

What Du-West Services does

Du-West Services is a Pasadena, Texas-headquartered home services contractor that has operated continuously since 1978. The company's core offering is foundation repair, supported by a multi-trade service portfolio that includes plumbing, HVAC (air conditioning and heating), concrete leveling, retaining wall construction, house raising, and under-slab plumbing. Du-West is credited with pioneering the use of precast concrete piles and tunneling techniques for foundation repair in the Texas market and serves residential and commercial property owners across five major Texas metros: Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Corpus Christi, and Victoria.

The company is a private, mid-sized regional contractor with a headcount in the 51-100 range and holds Texas trade licenses including Master Plumbing License MPL 36444, air conditioning license TACLA80486C, and general registration M-12314. Du-West operates as an authorized dealer for American Standard and Mitsubishi Electric HVAC equipment and partners with GreenSky to provide customer financing for larger projects. Its go-to-market combines a multi-branch service delivery model with traditional regional radio advertising (Texas Home Improvement Radio and HomeShow Radio sponsorships) and digital lead capture targeting Texas homeowners.

Du-West's revenue model is built on project-based contracting for foundation, plumbing, HVAC, and concrete work, recurring maintenance subscriptions (Foundation Signature Plan and Plumbing Signature Plan), lifetime transferable warranty service on foundation repairs, and HVAC equipment sales and installation through its OEM dealer relationships. The combination of warranties, multi-trade licensing, and subscription plans points to an explicit strategy of building a one-stop home services platform anchored in the Texas homeowner relationship, supported by physical branch coverage and recurring service touchpoints.
