A lifetime transferable warranty is offered on slab foundation repairs. This warranty covers the work as long as the homeowner maintains the property properly. Key things that can affect the warranty coverage include neglecting regular property maintenance or changes in the foundation caused by natural disasters, like earthquakes or floods, which are not covered. Other conditions might apply, so checking the full warranty details or contacting the office for specific questions is always a good idea, especially if you’re looking to transfer the warranty when selling your home.
The process starts with a free inspection by a certified foundation repair technician. They’ll check your home for signs of foundation problems like cracks, sticking doors, uneven floors, or moisture issues. After the inspection, you get a detailed explanation of what’s going on and, if repairs are needed, a free estimate explaining the recommended fix and what it’ll cost. For slab foundations, repairs often involve tunneling from outside to avoid tearing up your floors. For pier and beam homes, we look at the structure underneath, rebalance things if needed, and replace any damaged wood. Drainage or root barrier work may be recommended to prevent future problems. Most jobs can be done in a day, depending on how big the issue is. Once repairs are finished, the crew handles all cleanup, making sure everything is left in good shape. You’ll also get a clear explanation of your warranty coverage and what you need to do for maintenance.
Many foundation repairs can be finished in just one day, especially if the damage is moderate and easy to access, like slab foundation cracks or leaks. The time it takes really depends on the size of the home, how severe or spread out the damage is, the type of foundation (slab or pier and beam), the repair method being used, and weather conditions. If repairs involve complicated tunneling, replacing a lot of wood under a pier and beam house, or fixing drainage issues at the same time, it might take longer. Every job starts with a free inspection so you’ll know up front how long your specific repair is expected to take.
Yes, drainage correction is part of the services offered. Options like French drains, channel drains, surface drains, and engineered swales can be installed to help manage water around your home’s foundation. Controlling drainage like this helps prevent soil expansion or erosion, which can cause foundation problems. A proper drainage system can be a key step to stopping new issues before they start.
Root barrier installation is available as part of foundation repair services to help protect your home’s foundation from tree root damage. These barriers are put in by hand, so it’s safer for things like underground pipes or cables. The goal is to keep big tree roots from sucking out too much moisture near your foundation, since dry soil can shift and crack your slab or pier and beam foundation. Installing a root barrier helps prevent costly foundation problems caused by nearby trees or shrubs.
Both slab and pier and beam foundation repairs are offered. The type of repair your home needs depends on the kind of foundation you have and what problems are showing up, like cracks, uneven floors, or moisture issues. A certified foundation repair technician will come out for a free inspection, check your property, and figure out exactly what’s going on. If you have a concrete slab foundation, repairs might include fixing cracks or leaks, sometimes by tunneling under the house to avoid messing up your floors. For pier and beam foundations, the process usually means adjusting or replacing piers and repairing any damaged wood underneath. The repair method is always chosen based on the specific problem and the type of foundation, so you get a solution tailored to your home’s needs.
Tunneling is often used for slab foundation repair when it's important to keep the inside of your home undisturbed. This method means work is done from underneath or around the outside of your house, so your floors stay intact. It’s a popular choice when there are plumbing leaks or when people want to avoid dealing with major messes or replacing flooring. Tunneling isn’t needed for every job, but when it can help save your floors and make repairs easier, it’s definitely an option the team considers.
A free estimate is given after a certified technician completes a foundation inspection, so you’ll know exactly what repairs are needed and what they’ll cost. To schedule your inspection, just provide your name, email, phone number, street address, zip code, and a brief description of the problem you’re seeing—like cracks, uneven floors, or sticking doors. You can reach out by filling out the online form, calling, or emailing, whichever works best for you.
We do offer repairs for cracks in interior walls and floors if they are related to foundation problems. During a free inspection, a certified technician will check your home to figure out what’s causing the cracks. They’ll look for signs to tell if the cracks are structural, meaning they come from foundation movement and need fixing, or if they're just cosmetic and not a foundation issue. After the inspection, you’ll get a clear explanation and recommendations so you know exactly what needs to be done, if anything.
Before the foundation leveling crew arrives, make sure to clear the area both inside and outside your home. Move furniture, decorations, and belongings away from walls and windows near where the repair will happen. Outside, remove plants, lawn furniture, or anything close to the foundation. Keep pets and kids safely away from the work area. If you're having work done in a crawl space, clear any items stored underneath the house. It's also helpful to let the crew know about any sprinkler systems or hidden cables so nothing gets damaged. Taking these steps ahead of time helps the repair process go faster and smoother.
If your floors feel uneven, house leveling is often a solution, and it starts with a thorough inspection. During the inspection, technicians will look for clear signs like cracks in your walls or floors, doors or windows that stick or won't close properly, gaps between walls and ceilings, and sloping or sagging floors. They’ll also check for signs of water damage, mold, or shifts in the foundation. After checking both inside and outside, they’ll figure out if leveling is needed and explain what’s causing the problem so you understand the best way to fix it.
If multiple plumbing leaks are found under a slab, it’s possible to re-route the plumbing during foundation repair. This process involves running new pipes around the outside edge of the house or through the yard to avoid breaking up floors inside. Re-routing plumbing usually takes about five to seven days to complete, depending on the number and complexity of the leaks. This approach helps keep the mess to a minimum and makes repairs more lasting.
