Falcone Crawl Space & Structural Repair is a local, family-owned business providing customers in North and South Carolina foundation repair, structural repair, and waterproofing services since 2006. We are a licensed General Contactor and offer free consultations and estimates.

"Falcone is my go-to company for foundation repairs. I settled with them out of 3 bids, and they were the only company not to belittle another company. Eric and his crew kept everything peaceful and clean! We didn’t barely know they were here until the last day of work with some slight banging lol My floors are now beautifully leveled! The company was very informative and willing to answer any questions we had! Everyone who had their own parts in helping with our home were on time and very professional! From my understanding this is a family owned company and I’m glad we went with them! 10/10 would recommend! "

"I contracted with Mount Valley Foundation to encapsulate my crawlspace. I worked with Trey to define the project work. He along Christian provided a competitive estimate and were available to answer my questions. The project included removal of all fiberglass insulation, fully encapsulating the space with top end vapor barriers, replacing the door, and installing a dehumidifier. The team worked for two days to complete all the work with the exception of wiring the dehumidifier which is being done by a third party. Cody led a team comprised of Cory, Zy, Billy and Lamont. They worked steadily and demonstrated they knew what they were doing. I was most impressed by their willingness to answer any questions. All of them were so polite. I would highly recommend Mountains Valley Foundation based in my experience. "

After holding our deposit for over two months the manager said-- "We cannot do anything more to compensate you." Apparently, it is being overnighted this evening.

HydroHelp911 has been helping property owners repair their foundations and solve their moisture problems in North Carolina for many years. The company started out during crawl space encapsulation and crawl space repair and basement waterproofing. Then we moved into foundation repairs caused by water damage and moisture control issues. You have many companies to choose from when dealing with foundation repairs and moisture control, but you will not find a more knowledgeable company this us.

"Excellent Crawlspace Encapsulation Service! We are absolutely thrilled with the crawlspace encapsulation completed by HydroHelp911 at our home! From start to finish, every employee demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and a commitment to quality that truly impressed us. The initial consultation with Mike was incredibly thorough. Mike took the time to explain the entire process, assess our specific needs, and answer all of our questions clearly and patiently. We felt confident in their recommendations and the solutions they proposed. He met with us on June 25th and Dalton's crew was onsite for the encapsulation within three weeks. On the day of the encapsulation, Dalton and his crew arrived on time and worked diligently despite the extremely warm tempe. They were friendly and respectful of our property, ensuring everything was kept clean and tidy throughout the project. The workmanship was top-notch; every detail was handled with precision, from the vapor barrier installation to the sealing and dehumidifier setup. Since the encapsulation, we've noticed a significant improvement in our home. The air quality feels much better, and the house feels less humid and cooler. We"ve also observed a positive change in the efficiency of our HVAC system, which we attribute directly to the crawlspace being properly sealed and insulated. We highly recommend HydroHelp911 to anyone considering crawlspace encapsulation. They deliver exceptional results, and their team is a pleasure to work with. Thank you for a job incredibly well done!"

We do both interior and exterior repairs of basements and crawlspaces. The approach we use to repair your home is based on the structure of the dwelling. We have been in business since 2000. As the owner, I do all estimates and am an active team member when it comes time to do your job, "I am a hands on boss." We provide our customers with detailed estimated, drawing, and pictures of the project. We do trouble shooting before we give you a price. "It's hard to price a job before you know what the problem is with the home." After 15 years you realize, every house cannot be repaired with just " 1 tool". We use the correct tool for the correct job. Some home need to be waterproofed from the inside, some from the exterior,a combination of the 2 or maybe it just needs to be repaired. Not every home needs a full blown waterproofing system installed to solve the water issue.

"Mike Passman and Doug Moore investigated a Home I am selling. New. Just passed County inspects. The only positive reviews on these ppl is 7 years old. Check google and Angi They eroniously reported to buyers that the home has negative slope into the foundations on the ENTIRE perimeter. That water flowed into the home. Need to remove deck and trees they said. to fix the sloping on whole house they said. Gutter drains are a problem they said. HOWEVER, all slopes were measured hours after the left with the appropriate fall in all sides and 1 area was still being worked. Reported gutter drains as a problem yet all but 1 is piped out 10 to 30 fert from the home. They even noted 1 as Burried when it simply terminated at the French Drain he didnt even notice. Complete Incompetence in My Opinion as a Licensed contractor of 20 years. Their report was written on a Word Invoice as well. Extreemly unprofessional. Cant say it enough... Extreemly unprofessional"

For more than 60 years, ’58 Foundations & Waterproofing has provided the highest-quality basement waterproofing, crawlspace encapsulation, radon mitigation, mold removal and foundation repair solutions for homes and commercial properties. We lead with a promise of Trusted Five-Star Service, which means the customer experience is at the center of everything we do. Since 1958, we have been steadfast in keeping this promise and in upholding the values on which '58 Foundations was built: trust, teamwork, integrity, respect and communication. This comes across in all that we do: from the initial call to job completion, our customers are met with a knowledgeable, caring, and professional staff prepared to offer a five-star experience that is unmatched in the home repair industry.

"I had a very unfortunate experience with a misleading sales rep. In December 2022, a sales rep named Ryan came out to my house to show me my options. He suggested that we have a perimeter trench dug around the basement with a well and sump pump. He went over the options with me and told me about the amazing sump pumps that 58 Foundations & Waterproofing has...they are battery back-up in case of a power outage. I was excited about that because it gave me peace of mind. Let me be clear when I say that there was only a SINGLE option presented when it came to the type of sump pump they provided. Ryan gave me the option of a battery back-up and no other options. The install crew comes out, does a fantastic job, and gets it all done in a timely manner. 5 months passes and we have some bad storms rolling in. I wanted to be sure that the sump pump battery was still good, so I open the lid of the well to check on the battery, only to find out that we have a pump without a battery back-up, like I was told by my sales rep we would have. I reach out to the company to see if the battery is hidden inside the pump. After 24 hours, I still haven't heard back from the company, so I reach out to the sales rep directly. He tells me that I didn't purchase the battery back-up pump and that he would be happy to sell me one for an additional $1,500 (I am sure he would be happy to sell me one). I contacted the company to see what resolution we could arrive at. I have basically been told at this point that I did not purchase one even though the sales rep told me I was getting a battery back-up pump. A battery back-up was VERY important to me. The SC manager for 58 Foundations & Waterproofing called me today and offered to sell me one. But I cannot bring myself to pay for something that I was told would be included. She told me that the invoice does not show a line item for the battery back-up and that the invoice only lists "sump pump". But, how was I supposed to know that "sump pump" didn't mean the battery back-up pump that the sales rep told me would be included? How was I supposed to know that there would be a separate line item for "battery"? They have relied on the ignorance of their customers to take advantage. Everyone who gets one of these systems, make sure that you actually get what your sales rep told you...because I did not. And at the end of the day, of course the company has blamed me for the miscommunication. The SC manager told me that there was just a miscommunication and that she was sorry that I did not understand what I was purchasing. In reality, the reason that I did not understand is because I was misled. Until this issue is fixed and a battery back-up is installed free of charge, I will continue fighting this issue."

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

Most of the time, normal foundation settling will present as thin cracks in the foundation and minor creaks in the floorboards. In contrast, you can identify foundation issues by wide or uneven foundation cracks, horizontal or step-shaped gaps on the foundation wall, or cracks that go around corners of your foundation. Foundation problems can also cause changes in your living area, like increased humidity, uneven or sloping floors, nail pops in drywall, countertops pulling away from the wall, and windows and doors getting stuck. When in doubt, call in a professional to identify the underlying cause.

Yes, thicker concrete is less likely to crack. The thicker the concrete is, the less susceptible it is to extreme changes in weather conditions that often cause concrete to crack or chip. If you’re unable to install a thicker concrete driveway for any reason, you can also ask your professional to install more rebar or wire mesh to provide greater strength and better resilience to damage.

If your foundation isn’t properly square, there’s a chance that anything you built before detecting the issue may need to be torn down. A major miscalculation could leave some walls of your home unsupported. 

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.

Signs of structural damage include foundation cracks, roof leaks, bouncy floors, crumbling concrete, and cracked or leaning chimneys. Structural damage can make itself apparent in various ways, and sometimes, there may not be obvious signs. Inspect your foundation and roof annually to stay ahead of potentially serious structural problems.
