"Purchased a 1906 home in North Portland with an uneven foundation that had been patched for 60 years, but needed serious stabilization work. I contacted multiple foundation contractors in the greater-Portland area and Ram Jack was the only team that provided a full worse-case estimate that included everything that I may need to permanently stabilize the home's foundation. Other contractors' estimates were higher, omitted some of the features of Ram Jack's estimate, and involved greater excavation work around the home. While I was collecting estimates, I had multiple contractors check the levels on the house and could see the home was continuing to sink as much as half and inch in some areas within only a few months, so I knew I had to do something soon as the hotter summers are causing significant erosion to the clay soil in north portland. After paying the 50% down payment, I was quickly in touch with multiple project managers and structural engineers who were able to answer my questions as the work plan developed. I work from home and have two cats, so I was a bit worried about the noise and needing to leave at certain times during the work. Ramjack devised a plan of installing 12 helical piers from the basement and 2 outside for a small crawl space area as well as replacing most of the piers in the basement that had water damage. During the excavation and pier installation, I didn't have to leave my house at all, my cats were fine, none of the utilities ever needed to be turned off and none of the neighbors said they heard more than the hum of the generator outside; insane professionalism. The work team kept me informed at every step of the excavation and pier installation and was able to recover an inch of lift with only a few drywall cracks that I patched in a day. I could have gone further, but wanted to avoid any potential damage to the sewer pipes and stay within my budget. During the lifting, I was standing with the lead construction manager who kept me informed of every risk as we lifted the house bit by bit. During the excavation my basement looked insane with mounds of dirt everywhere, but the construction team cleaned everything flawlessly; all I had to do was a quick mop and the basement was good as new again. Overall had a great experience with RamJack; the 20 years in business shows, most everyone I dealt with had been working with them for years; the construction manager had been doing pier installation for 15 years. The work was expensive, but cheaper than the other local contractors, and certainly way cheaper than replacing the entire basement foundation. Ramjack was even able to take a few grand off the intitial worse-case estimate for solutions not needed. Glad I was able to repair my 120 year old home; here's to another 100 years. Big thanks to Pancho and Stephen, as well as the structural engineers and project managers; I'm very happy with the work."

"They showed up on the day the work was to be done and inspected the work area. They noticed that the water appeared to be coming from the ceiling and not the floor. They had the integrity to be honest, let me know I might be resolving a symptom and not the cause, and refunded me my deposit when it became clear I had a leaking pipe in the ceiling and not groundwater coming up from the floor."

"I have had two issues since they installed the new sump pump and irrigation. Issue number one was water still getting passed the new concrete. The other issue is that the new concrete was not level at all which has caused issues with the new flooring I installed. However, their customer service is top notch and will work hard to take care of you."

"The contracted the work off to a third party. Jon took longer than expected. The windows was installed pretty good from the looks. Communication could have been better with knowing the job will take longer and what types of trims I wanted for the windows. As the contractor that was hired for this job by this company. Did a good job with putting up decent trim. As for the new windows they look great. I purchased the myself and hired sentri homes to install them. I will need to have a my siding on my house redone to be closer to the new windows so the gaps are not so obvious. That was not expected at first. But from old storm windows and not knowing how they were put in originally. There was some unknown things that was learned from the job being completed. I will have the siding of the house slightly done to match really good for what I wanted later on. My only concern is better communication with sentri homes. Overall they were great when I did talk to them."

"Great overall experience. Ethan worked with us to find a siding and gutter solution that worked, and responded to all out questions in a timely manner. Very happy with the final product, the exterior of the house looks beautiful and modern and not 1970's anymore."

"We hired Western Paver Design based off of a friend s experience as they had just remodeled their backyard. Their property looked amazing after the remodel and I was convinced to give Joe Fisher a call after learning how thorough WPD is with all their jobs. The great John Wooden once said, If you don t have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it again. This really sums up the meticulous approach to craftsmanship that the WPD crew has. For our project, we had our 30 year old deck torn down and the concrete pool deck below ripped up due to invasive tree roots lifting the concrete. Demolition was a breeze that basically took one day. After demo was over, the head of Joe s crew, Darwin, got down to work with crafting a solid, level foundation to lay down new pavers as well as the footings for the new deck. Darwin made light work of the pavers and two new retaining walls on our property. That work alone really transformed our back yard into a new space. Once the pavers were down, it was time for the 14 x 12 deck to go up. To complicate things, we asked for a roof over the deck that was attached to the home s roof and that it look like an original feature of the house. This was truly no problem for WPD as the new addition to our home went up without a hitch. All our neighbors can say as they come over is Wow! because the craftsmanship is amazing and really shows due to the beautiful cedar wrapped posts and tongue and groove ceiling. In addition to the deck, pavers and retaining walls, we also had WPD design and build a 7 foot privacy fence. With over 380 feet of fence line this was a daunting task, but no match for WPD. The fence looks spectacular and is solidly built. WPD also cleaned up the side of our house by adding new steps, which look fantastic. They also added a sliding barn door to our unsightly pool equipment area. Now the area looks professionally finished as well as being more functional. Last but not least, we added a slide right next to the new stairway. We had no idea how this would finish, but Darwin and his ingenuity led to a solution that we were more than happy with. Utilizing left over Trex composite decking from the deck build, they created a cute little platform to step up to the slide that our kids instantly began to enjoy. Our experience with Western Paver Design was ultimately a pleasure. Joe is personable and has a great crew. We loved the work and experience so much that we are having WPD back to redo our front yard in the Spring."

FAQs for house leveling projects in Cascade Locks, OR

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

Typically, it’s more affordable to buy an existing home than it is to build a new one. New construction loan interest rates tend to be higher than interest rates for traditional mortgages. Additionally, the cost of materials is likely higher when building a new home than it was when an existing home was built (unless it’s a very new one). You’re also paying for all new appliances, finishes, permits, inspections, and connections for water, gas, and electricity. 

The most common first signs of foundation issues include: 

  • Cracks in the foundation walls that grow

  • Signs of moisture or water leaking through cracks in the foundation

  • Standing water in the basement

  • Sagging floors or walls

  • Cracked walls in upper floors

  • Doors and windows that don’t close properly anymore

Foundation repairs cost about $5,000, on average. Typically, prices range from $2,200 to $7,800, depending on the type and extent of repairs needed. Cost factors include foundation type, home size, soil stability, accessibility, and the ultimate cause of the problem and what methods and materials are required to fix it.

If you’re noticing signs of foundation issues, the first step to fixing a foundation problem is to hire a foundation repair inspector. They will determine the problem, the cause, and the severity before recommending a course of action to repair the foundation. The method for fixing foundation problems depends on the problem and what options are available. A few possible solutions include:

  • Epoxy injections

  • Mudjacking

  • Piers made of steel or concrete

  • Jacks 

  • Hydraulic piers

  • Carbon or steel reinforcement strips

  • Waterproofing materials
