They responded immediately to our AL scheduling request. Jonathan came out a few days later at a very convenient time for us. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, listened to all my concerns, looked at everything I asked him to, thoroughly explained what he was seeing, and gave his suggestions and thoughts. He even took me underneath my deck (during bad rain, no less) to point everything out to me.
en He was also EXTREMELY honest (which is obviously the #1 thing you want when getting advise on an issue as potentially expensive as foundation repair!). He suggested some precautions I could take here and there, but flat out told me that I really didn't have much to worry about. Not once did he try to sell me on anything, which I greatly appreciated.
After at least 45 minutes or so, I pulled out my checkbook and asked what I owed him for the visit. He told me not to worry about it! I couldn't believe it. Simply awesome.
As I told Jonathan when he left, I hope I never have any foundation issues, but I would not even think of calling anyone else if I do. He also offered to be a resource if I ever need a referral to another type of contractor. I will certainly take him up on that offer - if he can guide me to folks that are even 1/2 as professional and honest as he is, then I'll be one happy homeowner for years to come.
Foundation Worx is amazing!
I bought a big deal for a consultation. It still leaked. They did the work around the same time I purchased the deal. The pricing held true. They just gave me some ideas on how to prevent the leaks, but we did those and it still leaks. They were very responsive.
"[Member name removed], Sorry to hear you didn't find our consult valuable. We mentioned if it didn't solve the problem to call us back and we would be happy to assist further. We are bought in to solving your problem, so if our advice didn't solve it then we have multiple other avenues to help. Your was was a very tricky one and we firmly believe in removing as much water pressure off the house before doing any repair work (many company will just sell you a system to mask the problem). Please call us back if you are still having issues. Jonathan"
We contacted several local foundation companies, and Foundation Worx was by far the most professional and most reasonable given the amount of work required.
The owner was quick to respond to my call and schedule a time for us to review the situation. He was the third professional to assess the situation (prior ones were a general contactor and land scape designer). He assessed the potential sources for the water and provide alternatives varying in costs. He offered up solutions that I could perform on my own all the way to a comprehensive solution. At his suggestion, as it was a relatively minor water problem, I choose the options that I could address on my own to see if they fixed the issue before more invasive solutions were pursued (e.g. re-grade the land next to the house, replace river stone bed with solid cement to move the water away, extend draining piping, etc.)
He solutions were truly how to solve the problem versus how to sell me his fixes. I found it very refreshing and would definitely leverage the company again.
"[member name removed], Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. I apologize if we didn't meet your expectations but please let us know what we could do differently in the future. We performed a comprehensive evaluation of the house to determine any water or structural issues and walked through many solutions to the problems. During this evaluation we do not try to sell anything and wrote a letter explaining our findings."
