"We had them raise the foundation but the brick wall cracked even worse now. I wish I hadn't done the work. The guys that did the work. They did a great job but because the foundation was raised the brick wall cracked worse than it was and they said there's nothing else they can do about it. So now I'm stuck with a worse broke wall. I was promised that it would fix the cracks in the wall. Did not happen. Not real happy with the process"

"Scott had to repair/reinforce/replace floor joists in the crawl space and replace a basement window, repair cracks in the basement foundation, and replace a rotting wood post with a steel one. This was a complex job requiring Scott and his workman two days. They did an excellent job and did more than the contract specified, including wrapping foil tape around loose connections in the furnace ducts, shoring up unsupported floor joists in areas other than the original work order, etc. Scott is hardworking, knowledgeable, friendly and honest. I would recommend his company to anyone needing foundation, basement, and floor joist repair."

"I noticed a leak from the attic into my spare bedroom on Thursday morning.  Was able to reach Mike at Agape later that morning, and he went out to my house later that day to check on the roof.  He needed to take a look in the attic and was willing to stop by later that night once I was home.  He was realistic about the damage to my rafter & dormer and gave me 2 options for repair.  I called him back on Friday to set up the repair and he and one of his crew members had everything done by early Saturday evening.  I appreciated his quick response, honest assessment, and ability to get the job done right away and wouldn't hesitate to hire him again.

Foundation Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Concrete can crack from general wear, improper installation, or in response to uneven support from the soil underneath. Small, thin cracks on the surface of aging concrete are usually a result of normal wear and tear, while cracks on new concrete more likely indicate a problem with installation. Larger cracks or uneven steps can signify a much more severe issue. A concrete contractor should be able to diagnose the cause and repair concrete cracks for you.

You can seal a concrete slab by cleaning the surface, filling in any cracks, etching the surface, applying a sealer, and letting it dry. Concrete slabs don't typically need sealing, but you can use a topical concrete sealer if you notice signs of water damage. If you haven't already fixed the cause of the leak, then you'll want to repair the plumbing before you seal a concrete slab.

Cement companies offer a wide variety of services, including delivering and pouring concrete for home foundations, walkways, patios, driveways, concrete steps, pools, pool decks, and more, plus concrete repair and patching. Most companies also have the ability to demolish and haul away old concrete landscaping features. It’s a good idea to reach out to a few different companies before hiring to make sure you choose one that can tackle the entirety of the project you have from start to finish. This method will typically save you some money over hiring multiple contractors.

Common issues with concrete that may require professional repair or resurfacing include cracks, spalling, uneven surfaces, and weather damage.

If your concrete steps have crumbled or chipped, you can fix them by removing any chips or flakes, cleaning and wetting the affected area, applying a concrete bonding agent, and finally applying new concrete, usually in the form of Portland cement. For widespread damage, you can consider concrete resurfacing instead. For fixing concrete spalling that has led to deep damage, you might need to remove damaged material, add structural supports, and pour new concrete into a mold.
