How an assessment usually works

Start by describing what you have noticed and roughly when it started. Photos help, especially of cracks, damp areas, and any spot where a floor or wall looks out of line.

An on-site visit looks at the foundation inside and out, the drainage and grading around the home, and the framing or slab that the foundation supports. The point is to identify the cause, not just the symptom.

From there you get a written description of what was found and the repair options that fit it. Pricing follows the scope of work for your property.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which service do I need?
It depends on what you are seeing. Cracks, settlement, and movement point to foundation repair; water and dampness point to basement solutions; bouncy or sagging floors usually point to framing and crawl space support. An inspection sorts it out.
Can more than one service apply to the same home?
Often, yes. Structural movement and water problems frequently appear together, and one can make the other worse, so an assessment usually looks at both.
