"They were good. Matt was our inspector. We needed to get an inspection done on a new home and they came out with little notice and gave us a great breakdown and report. We are looking to hire them for the foundation repairs so I will let you know how the service goes beyond the inspection!"

"Alpha Structural are class acts 100%. Dick came to my house, gave us an honest estimate under what we had expected and got us on the books promptly to begin work. The foreman, Jose, was attentive and polite throughout the work. The stars of the show, Lawrence and Antonio, blew us away with their work. They gave me regular updates and got the job done, start to finish, with utmost professionalism. Little things, like pulling in my garbage cans after collection, just really made their work ethic and politeness stand out. With their stellar reputation and amazing performance, I trust this company with any foundation work I'll hopefully not need in the future! I just wish they provided more services so that I can work with them more."

"Paramount Pavers and Construction's team are Amazing, an absolute "10"in every stage of our project from the beginning first phone call to the last day. They were extremely respectful, and always took the time to answer all of my questions, and offered good suggestions when I couldn't decide on the color. They cleaned up the project site every day, they even compacted and leveled out the dirt in front of the ADU, which wasn't even part of project, but it sure made it look better. Along with the beautiful paver driveway and walkways, there was repair and detail work I needed to be done on my block wall and around my front porch, it was also done beautifully. I can't say enough about them, they are the most professional, knowledgeable, kind, patient, and hard-working contractors I have ever worked with, and after being married to a contractor for almost forty-years, I have worked with a lot, but Rudy, Issac, and their team led by Jose are Number 1!"

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

The actual foundation repair costs will depend on the extent of the damage, how many blocks you need, labor costs, and material costs. As an estimate, the average repair costs for a cinder block foundation fall between $350 and $25,000. Because the range is so large, it’s important to call a professional foundation repair company and have them assess the damage and estimate the repair costs.

Minor slab leaks normally take around three hours to access and fix, provided the leak is in an accessible location. However, a more extensive leak or a leak in a hard-to-reach location can take several days to fix, depending on the resulting damage. You might also want to consider the timeline for the build-back if the leak damages building materials like flooring or cabinets, which can take several weeks, including delivery of the materials.

If you don’t have any access to or knowledge of any area underneath your home, chances are it’s built slab-on-grade. You can also look for the concrete around the bottom edge of your structure; if it’s just a few inches tall, it’s likely a slab. If it’s more than that, has any windows, or you have steps leading to your main entrance, you likely have a different foundation style.

Underpinning is a specific type of foundation repair where a specialist installs deep piers under a foundation to provide additional support. This method is often used when the soil beneath the foundation can no longer evenly support the structure. Foundation repair is an umbrella term that includes many methods. Besides underpinning, other common repairs include foundation crack repair, waterproofing, cosmetic repairs, and concrete block wall stabilization. Often, underpinning is accompanied by other work to address the root cause of the foundation issue, such as regrading the yard to ensure water drains away from the house.

Foundation problems are costly to repair, but if you already own the home, you can either handle the issues or allow the property to (literally) sink into disrepair. The opposite is true when buying a home. Walk away if the seller refuses to lower the asking price once foundation issues are exposed or if they refuse to handle the problems before the completion of the sale.
