"I called Montana Basement Solutions when we discovered mold in our basement. We were stressed and worried about the safety of our children in the home. When I called, the receptionist quickly put me in touch with Rich, who talked me through the process and helped give me information about what I could do prior to having someone come out. He set up a time when one of the guys would be close to town and waved the travel fee since he would be in this area anyway. He was kind, knowledgable and made me feel like he really wanted to help us. Wynn came out a few days later and gave us tons of information. He walked us through what we needed to do and was willing to spend an exorbitant amount of time, late into the evening, prior to a long drive home, explaining everything we needed to know about our problem. He addressed every one of our concerns and answered all of our questions in depth. He was friendly, knowledgable and professional. I would highly recommend this company. From the very first phone call, I have been so pleased with the customer service I have received. I had called 4 other companies prior to and after talking with Montana Basement Solutions, 2 who said they would come out two days later ( never heard from them) and 1 that still has not called back (and I have left 2 messages). I am so grateful for the time Wynn gave to us and did I mention , he did all of this free of charge? He also gave me the answer to my problem and it did not require me using their services. If you have a mold problem, I would start with Montana Basement Solutions."

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

There are many actions that specialists can take to repair a bad foundation. However, just like a car, a specialist will determine whether the cost of repairs is worth it in the long run. In many cases, repairs to the surrounding property—such as regrading your lawn or addressing lawn drainage issues—will also be necessary.

Most single-story homes don't have foundations strong enough to support a second story, but they can be reinforced for an addition. A structural engineer can assess your foundation and what needs to be done to get it ready. They'll look at any cracks or unevenness in your current foundation and consider any special framing or beams your home needs, especially if it’s in a high-wind or hurricane area.

“To support a second story, many structural engineers will require that you install additional concrete piers in the crawlspace,” says Tschudi. “This involves hand excavating, pouring a large concrete footing—usually with specially coated rebar—and then building concrete piers right up to the girders.”

Foundation repair can affect home value positively or negatively. If you address the underlying issue and hire a foundation repair contractor to complete the work—especially one that includes a warranty for the work—then your repair will likely increase your home’s value. If you fail to pull proper permits and cannot prove that a licensed expert completed the work, there’s a chance buyers will view your home in a negative light and end up offering less for your property.

You’ll need to reseal the foundation every five to 10 years, depending on the sealant you’ve used, the moisture conditions present in and around your home, and the condition of your foundation. Having a foundation inspection conducted before reapplication can help you catch any problems before you begin resealing. Of course, if you notice any new leaks or other moisture problems at any time, it may be necessary to reseal the foundation sooner.

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.
