The technician came out to take a thorough survey of the condition of the foundation, and produced a detailed report and estimate. While we were initially planning to just have the house seismically retrofitted we then also decided to have the cracks in the foundation repaired to prevent further cracks from developing as the concrete foundation is not reinforced. After the City approved the plan with Foundation Work's proposed remedies, the crew came out on time and worked for four days. They covered the lawn with a tarp and... read more

The inspector who came out was Matt. He was an excellent gentleman, and did a fine job of inspecting. The inspection was free and they did an excellent job. They gave an honest inspection, and didn't come up with stuff that wasn't there. I would definitely recommend them. The pricing was excellent, and I went online and compared their price with others. I am going to have them do the work for me, as soon as I have the money together.
Business response:
"Hello there! Thank you so much for the accolades on Matt, we feel the same about him as you do! I sure appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, it's how we grow and can provide this same level of experience to an ever-widening number of property owners! Always at your service, Tom Pelletier, Owner The Foundation Works" Read more
This was an excellent experience. From the staff in the office, to the inspectors, to the foreman on the structural repairs team- each individual was professional, courteous, helpful and informed. Scheduling the initial inspection was a breeze. The two inspectors arrived at the property on time. Brad, the senior inspector, explained what they would be doing and that they would give me a same-dayverbal analysis followed up by a written report and estimate. They did exactly that. After checking the inside, outside and crawl sp... read more
We got a bid on foundation work, retrofitting and some slab work. Keith was knowledge, professional, and did not try to over sell. He was responded to our questions in a timely manner . If all we needed was that we would have gone with this company but we had other issues as well.
Business response:
"Hello there, thank you so much for taking the time to let us know that Keith took great care of you, we never tire of hearing that! I hope your project went fantastic and of course if there is ever anything we can do to assist you, don't hesitate to give us a call! Always at your service, Tom Pelletier, Owner The Foundation Works" Read more
Keith, our inspector, was prompt, very professional and a true pleasure to speak with. I set up the appointment for Foundation Works to inspect our newly purchased home, and to evaluate some cracks and settling we were aware of but concerned about. Keith put us to ease and candidly assessed that the settling is there but that the issue is primarily drainage. Keith recommended a drainage contractor and did not charge us for the inspection. Foundation Works is the type of non-alarmist contractor that will get my business in th... read more

Matt, the inspector, was punctual, thorough and went out of his way to explain his findings to me right on site. I received his written report in clear and understandable English without the use any trade jargon later that day, together with photos illustrating the key issues.

The Service was exceptional. The very pleasant and professional office staff made the appointment and they agreed to come out the very next Saturday after I called. He arrived a few minutes early and even removed his shoes to please my wife when he entered the house. Together we walked the interior of the house and he explained what he was looking for. After crawling under the house he thoroughly explained why even though we had a few problem footings that they really aren't much of a problem. The only negative would be we n... read more

This company is on my list of recommends for life. From the moment we contacted them they were accommodating, responsive, professional, and reasonable. Their price was great and when they had to amend their plans based on additional items needing attention that were identified mid -project, they performed the additional work at no extra cost, honoring their initial bid. They answered all of my many questions patiently. I felt very confident in the knowledge and skill of all of the people affiliated with the company, from the... read more
