"would NOT recommend! Before I bought my house the seller hired this company to put up carbon fiber strips.. They put carbon fiber straps into our crawl space.. stood by this work and claimed there was nothing wrong with this work.. however we had many foundation contractors come out because it did not seem right and we were told a wall anchor was going to be put it and found these straps instead. and all said the same thing. What is this it looks like a 5 year old did it.. ram jack stood by this work and says it is doing its job and there is no need for an anchor at the bottom of the straps and it not being flushed against the wall and pulling up is a “ blemish not a failure” however once I reached out to the manufacturer of the carbon fiber strips I get an email stating it is “ dis heartining to see such a poor install and they will help me through this entire process.” Since the walls were not prepped properly or carbon fiber straps placed properly. as well as the co founder saying this job looks like a 5 year old did it as well. However they have refused to reach back out to the co founder of fortress who has tried to be in contact with them. Instead they email the seller of my house and CC me in stating they will only pay 1600 dollars of the job out of the $4800 that was paid.. SAVE YOURSELF THE HEADACHE!!!! *** anyone who knows about carbon fiber straps is they need to be anchored at the top and bottom however in our case they did not pour a footing to properly secure the carbon fiber straps with an anchor at the bottom***"

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is normal for a block foundation to crack. Some block foundation cracks are more serious than others and indicative of a larger structural problem. On the other hand, minor cracks may not be of immediate concern but should be monitored. Regardless, foundational cracks are not an uncommon response to wear on a structure from time and weather.

There are a few ways to reinforce a pier and beam foundation, including installing additional piers and beams for added support and performing underpinning, which redistributes the weight of your home further down into the ground where frost and soil expansion don’t pose a threat to the foundation. The best option for reinforcement varies based on your particular home and the soil conditions beneath it.

Addressing gaps and cracks reduces heat loss and improves energy use.

It can be safe to live in a house with minor foundation problems as long as the issues are checked and monitored by a professional. Minor cracks are rarely a cause for structural concerns, but signs of leaks, sinking, or bulging walls should be strongly scrutinized by a foundation specialist. Similarly, it's always smart to hire a professional when you're concerned about buying a house with foundation repairs.

Water damage to a foundation often starts as a slow leak or water vapor problem that worsens over the course of months or even years. The speed at which foundation leaks worsen depends on a few factors, including your climate and location, the soil composition around your home, the foundation drainage system you have in place, if any, and the type of foundation you have. Even if you have a minor issue that’s slow to develop, it’s best to have a professional address the issue immediately.
