Adam came to our home to inspect potential foundation repairs and was extremely thorough, honest and knowledgeable. I have a much better understanding of what is happening with our home and although repairs are not urgent at this time I have more peace of mind and knowledge about any future repairs that may need to take place. I cannot speak to the work that FRS does but in terms of a representative that will come to diagnose issues with your home, Adam is second to none.

We had Ken Jordan out to look at some superficial cracks just to be on the safe side. He was prompt, friendly, and honest. He didn’t try to sell us something we didn’t need and advised just some simple maintenance and gave our foundation a clean bill of health. Thank you Ken and FRS team! I recommend highly!

Cory and Dakota did a fabulous job! After they arrived, we walked around the house, and they explained what they would be doing. They worked quickly and efficiently. When it came time to lift the house, they did it in small increments and let us check to make sure the windows closed properly and the existing drywall cracks did not change in size. They were patient and answered all our questions. Many thanks for all your work and help!!!

We are constantly recommending Foundation Recovery Systems to our friends—primarily because of how great Shae Weber is. He just brings an extra level of care to the project. He has a sharp eye for detail and really knows his stuff. We did foundation work on one well and waterproofing with a sump pump. Shae was so great at coordinating the team, communicating with us, and making sure the work was top-notch. There was one hiccup in the project, and Shae made sure to come back out and fix it himself when the team was busy. He really went above and beyond. When it came to do another wall, we made sure to call and ensure we had Shae involved in the job. When our friends have mentioned needing foundation repair or waterproofing, we always recommend FRS. But if Shae went anywhere else, we would follow him.

Had 13 piers placed around my house 2 weeks ago and not gonna lie this is a very big nerve racking job when it is on your home. Made me very anxious,however Drake Johnson Jason Koch Taylor braswell Made a good team and was very reassuring the entire time and worked very hard in the cold temps to get things done and to explain to me the step by step process. I could not have asked for a better team of guys to do the job!! If you are needing this big of a project I would highly recommend!

Jared Estes did an amazing job inspecting our crawl space for moisture and damage as well as inspecting for any sagging in the structure of our home. He was completely honest with us regarding our foundation issue, and I never felt like he was just trying to make a sale. I would highly recommend Jared and Foundation Recovery Systems to anyone that has foundation issues.

Just had my free inspection and quote from Camden, he was extremely thorough with his walk through and work up. He used industry leading equipment to pinpoint the concerning locations of my house, and explained exactly how to resolve the issues. I feel confident foundation recovery systems would be capable of saving my forever home from further damages.

I met with Cody Callow last week to discuss my foundation issues. He was prompt, courteous, professional and very thorough in explaining my situation and how Foundation Recovery Systems would go about fixing my issues. I am in the process of getting several bids, but feel like I received an honest and fair estimate from Cody and will be in touch.
