We had some water in our basement which ended up being a leaky pipe but Stephen was so helpful through the whole process. He figured out it was the pipe rather than a foundation issue and even assisted us with getting in touch with a plumber. He was also very helpful and kind throughout the process.

My father had passed away 2 wks before the basement flooded. I called FRS and Alfonso was so understanding with my mom during the quoting process. And then this amazing crew arrived. Robert Stuck, Chase Martin, Zach Skaggs….simply wonderful. They worked so hard, in such a short time. The finished product is so beyond my expectations. And the communication between us and the foreman, Robert, was so appreciated. It put my mom at ease, which helped lessen all the stress she has been under since my dad's passing. I simply cannot thank this crew enough. May God bless and protect you all (especially your backs!!) Kindest Regards, The Family of Warren Buckwalter.

How We Stabilize Your Foundation

Foundations fail for a variety of reasons. With each situation being unique, there is not a simple one-size-fits-all solution. This is why we meet with you at your property and spend the time needed to properly diagnose the problem, provide the best solution that fits your specific needs, and make sure you understand why. We can use different foundation repair methods to provide you with the best solution for your property.

Wall Stability Solutions

Permanently Stabilize Walls

What We Do

Your walls are the first place to look for signs of foundation problems. Vertical cracks can show up in drywall, and stair-step cracks run down cinder block basement walls. Neither of these are purely cosmetic—they’re structural too. At Foundation Recovery Systems, stabilizing walls is the first thing we do to restore your home. Using tools personalized to your home, we anchor your walls into alignment and reinforce them to stand strong.

FAQs

Typically, foundation repair is not covered by standard homeowners insurance unless the damage results from a covered peril, such as a plumbing leak.

In most cases, yes, but it depends on the extent of the repairs. Your contractor can provide specific advice based on your situation.

Addressing foundation issues promptly is crucial. First, a compromised foundation can lead to a domino effect of structural problems in your home. Second, the longer you wait, the more expensive the repairs are likely to become. Finally, a stable foundation is essential for the overall safety and value of your property.
