About Uretek
In 2000, Marc Spencer and Scott Turnage partnered to form one of the first affiliates of URETEK USA, the original patent on the process of using polyurethane foam to stabilize soil and lift foundations. For over 20 years, URETEK DFW has put thousands of customers in control of their concrete slab lifting problems, saving them millions of dollars in costly repairs, downtime, and disruption.

As entrepreneurs, Marc and Scott identified the growth potential of using polyurethane to solve soil issues notorious to the region and they wanted to create a work environment people would appreciate. They began with a small team of employees dedicated to serving clients in North Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas, eventually expanding to Central Texas. Many of those original employees are still a part of the URETEK family today.
Throughout our history, we have innovated, experimented, and pivoted to establish URETEK as the premier provider of polyurethane geotechnical services. Our team’s technical knowledge, unrivaled experience, and dedication enable us to consistently deliver successful results for our customers, many of whom have been with us from the start.
In November 2021, Cultivate Venture Partners acquired URETEK. Cultivate CEO Troy Austin was searching for a business with a great reputation, a unique product, and long-term employees. He found what he was looking for in URETEK South.
Together with Scott Turnage and the URETEK team, Cultivate is working to enhance URETEK’s position in the marketplace and grow it so that it remains the market leader for years to come.
