As far as we're concerned, Foundation Repair Services is the gold standard in terms of integrity, professional competence, and performance. I would not hesitate to recommend their services. To sum up the project, we live on a steep slope and one side of our driveway slab was held in place by a 12ft high retaining wall that, due to poor driveway drainage, was beginning to rotate away from the point of meeting the foundation of the house. In addition, the slab itself was beginning to settle and pull away from the garage opening. David King was the project manager and he designed the ideal solution to reinforce the concrete wall and at the same time remove and build a reinforced and supported slab with appropriate drainage. We cannot recommend David's talents and services highly enough. The crew that performed the work were very experienced, hard-working and courteous. They answered all our questions and requests, including making accommodations when necessary for foot traffic access to the street. The job was completed on time and on budget. We could not be more pleased with the outcome.
I needed the floors firmed up in my 100 year old home and I called FRS to come and inspect the crawl space. The team was very professional and worked quickly to come up with a solution.They installed masonry piers throughout to firm up the foundation and new subfloor in one room. The floor no longer bounces when moving through the house and we were able to install heavier tile in the kitchen and laundry room. Highly recommended!!
What a great experience it was working with David King and his FRS crews! From David's assessment of our problem, his explanation of recommended fixes, his willingness to consider our thoughts, then his overall supervision of the two crews that worked on the project were a joy to deal with. His coordination of the inside and outside work meant that the crews were n and out in minimal time. David's personal involvement and contributions to its outcome mmade us feel very special, and were much appreciated.
We had foundation repair service come out today to inspect our foundation. Wesley Taylor was very professional and nice and advise us at this time our foundation looked fine. Gave us some suggestions on correcting drainage issues. Highly recommend them because they did not take advantage and do work that wasn't necessary.
Foundation Repair Services was asked to provide an estimate to stabilize a concrete slab. The actual cost was MORE THAN DOUBLE the agreed upon cost. In the spring of 2021 Foundation Repair Services, Inc. was asked to provide an estimate to stabilize a concrete slab. Knowing they were competing against other companies for the business, they provided the lowest estimate. The total cost proposal provided to complete the project was less than $2,000. They were chosen to move forward with the project and perform the actual work using their low proposal as the basis for this decision. A few weeks later they completed the work same day. When the work was completed a bill of MORE THAN TWICE the estimated amount was presented for payment. The reason given was that more material was needed to complete the job than anticipated. Never during the course of the work being performed was this extra need for material ever mentioned or approved. Nor was this mentioned as a possibility during the initial meeting. The amount of the actual cost over the estimate is far and above in excess of any reasonable expectation. Due to the way their contract is written, they can charge you whatever they want.
I was incredibly impressed. 1 First, when I requested the quote, they didn't try to upsell anything or use scare tactics like the other two companies used. In fact, Vic said, "Honestly, if you do nothing at all, you probably won't run into any additional problems, even 10 years from now, but it's the sort of thing that will have to be fixed before you sell your home or it will show up in the inspection." He earned a lot of respect from me with that. 2 They scheduled me a few weeks out because they were super booked and they stayed on schedule. 3 The employees were incredibly friendly. Real, genuine people. 4 Fixing the foundation caused the front door to not lock properly which they also fixed free of additional charge. 5 The problem was worse than they expected and took an additional day of labor but there was no additional charge. 6 Communication was great via phone and email.
I had FRS install helical piers on my garage that had settled after 20 years. Their pricing is comparable to others that gave an estimate. Lead time after signing the contract was 2 weeks. The installation team was very good and experienced. They also cleaned up really well. Would recommend to a friend.
The crew from Foundation Repair Services showed up on time as scheduled and completed the work within the estimated timeframe. Each of the crew members was courteous and was willing to answer questions as they worked through the project. The finished product exceeded my expectations and was completed on time and in budget. I would strongly recommend Foundation Repair Services if you are considering a project in their area of expertise.
David was very knowledgeable about the issues affecting my property and took the time to go over all the options. He was very honest about what it would take. It's nice to have a company that doesn't try to just make money off you but shoots you straight. Will def use for any foundation issues I have in the future.
Foundation repair services is a quality, dependable, reliable, high integrity company and this is because the owners, Branden and Laura Cartee are high integrity people. They have the right people the right equipment and the expertise to do the job right the first time. I highly recommend them. Ken Zappone
