The foundation repair cost is largely dependent on the type and extent of the damage. Construction methods/materials and soil conditions are different for every building and therefore the repair must be properly engineered/customized to do the job.

Every house is different. Our engineers determine the number and placement of piers needed based on a structural assessment of your foundation and floor surface elevations. Many things affect the foundation repair design including existing weight bearing soil capacity, drainage, foundation condition/deviation, building structural design and construction.

Mortgage company’s will not loan on houses/buildings in structural disrepair. Investors used to buy “fixer upper” for pennies on the dollar, but with all the “REPOS” on the market, it is not likely the house would sell without repair.
