Atlas Foundation Company Inc

Atlas Foundation Co, Inc has been family owned and operated, servicing the DFW area since 1958. Atlas owners, Darrel and Lonnie Ford came to work for their father, Glenn Ford, in 1980 after their granddad retired. With over 75 years of combined experience, Darrel and Lonnie, are involved with every aspect of Atlas Foundation Company starting with providing potential customers with a free estimate. Atlas only gives an estimate for the work necessary to correct the problem. At the time of an estimate, they will take elevations and assess any damage to ensure that the best possible repair plan is chosen. Atlas foundation offers concrete pilings, steel pilings, pier and beam leveling and drainage repairs to fit all needs. Once repairs are completed, they are backed up by a True Lifetime Free Adjustment Warranty for the life of the home. We are excited to announce that we are now also offering Foam Injection Concrete Lifting to eliminate trip hazards and raise concrete. The lifting possibilities are endless and include driveways, sidewalks, porches, pool decks, patios and void filling just to name a few. We are honored to be celebrating our 60th anniversary of serving our community and are looking forward to a bright future with Darrel's daughter, Lindsay and Lonnie's son, Kyler training to take over as co-owners and continue the family legacy. Foundation repair, doesn't have to be scary. Our family is here to serve yours. We look forward to earning your business.

The lady at Atlas was full of questions. The other foundation companies asked whether it was pier&beam or slab, and that was about it, but she also wanted to know whether it had a concrete perimeter, whether you could see under the house, how old the house was, how high the crawl space was... I told her the crawl space was high enough to crawl under, but I wasn't at home and didn't know exactly how high. She wouldn't set up an appointment without me going home and measuring it, so I gave up. If they are this difficult when they are supposedly trying to get your business, I can just imagine what a pain it would be to try to get them to come out to redo something they did incorrectly!

I called to get an appointment for them to check my foundation.

Service Provider Response

We are sorry for the inconvenience. Pier and beam foundations are all constructed and supported differently. That is why we ask so many questions up front. If a house does not have at least two feet of clearance then it has to be excavated underneath before it can be worked on. This is not a service we provide therefore we always confirm up front that it has adequate clearance for us to work. I apologize that you feel we wasted your time but we feel like finding this information out up front and being up front about not being able to work on it saves both potential customers and us time.

I would highly recommend Atlas Foundation! The company is well established, provided a customer review list as well as a life-time warranty. The office staff was friendly, assuring and answered many questions about the process as well as the financial options. The project manager was very helpful and communicated clearly during the pre, during and post lift process. The crew were prompt and worked hard preparing for the lift, completed it then paid close attention to detail on their clean-up process from returning landscaping to it's original location, fixing sprinkler lines, repairing small cracks in the brick as well as cleaning up the driveway! Thank you for an outstanding job!

In May 2012 the house had numerous, major foundation problems that Atlas performed extensive foundation repairs on. I purchased the house in August 2012 and my biggest concern was any subsequent problems I might have with the foundation. I was concerned about what kind of response I would get if I contacted the foundation repair company for any adjustments that might be needed. When I noticed cracks outside and inside the house, I contacted Atlas and the office staff promptly set an appointment for Lonnie to come out check out the cracks. Lonnie was very friendly and took his time looking at the entire house and taking elevation measurements for evaluation. Lonnie determined that a number of adjustments should be made, said this would be covered under the warranty and that Atlas would contact me to set up the repair work. I was contacted one week later and the repair was set up for the next day. The crew arrived at 8 AM and were very friendly, professional and worked very hard. They took care removing plants and were also very careful not to damage the sprinkler and foundation watering systems. I was amazed how the cracks were disappearing during the adjustment phase and I have little, if any, paint touch up to do inside the house. After the repair process was complete, Atlas restored the flower beds to their original condition. There was always 4-5 Atlas employees on-site at all times and they were there for 7 1/2 hours to complete this work. Also impressive was that all of the on-site crew have been Atlas Foundation employees for 3-15 years. What really amazed me is that this outstanding job was done under the transferable Lifetime Warranty and shows that Atlas will perform any follow up foundation adjustments with the same quality and dedication as the original foundation repair work. I highly recommend Atlas Foundation for any foundation problems that you might have.

Atlas was very professional, thoroughly explaining their findings. I would use them again without reservation.
Description of Work
They came out and examined my foundation which was peer and beam. They took measurements to see if there was significant settling. My house is 60 years old. They found that there was some settling which was to be expected but that over all the house was fairly level and not in need of foundation repair. This opinion was agreed to by another foundation company so we did nothing at the time.

I didn't dislike him, although I thought he did the bid rather hurriedly. I got 2 other bids, and both of them were quite a bit more. I don't know if they would be any better than Atlas. I actually was considering using him, since his bid was lowest. He did call me back to see if I wanted him to do the job. I think I am going to get more estimates before I make a decision.

Atlas was professional and responsive to look at a possible issue in the foundation of the home we were considering purchasing. They did a free review and estimate. We were very appreciative of their expertise and service and when we need foundation repair service in the future we will definitely use this company.
Description of Work
This company was highly recommended by our realtor and they did not disappoint. They reviewed the issues we were concerned about and gave us appropriate suggestions. After also having a certified engineer review the issues we decided not to do the repair at this time. When the time comes to do the repair, we will definitely use this company.

They evaluated the house and said I didn't have foundation problems. I appreciated the fact that they didn't tell me to do work I didn't have to have done. I talked to them twice because I checked last year and checked again this year as well just to make sure. They came on time and gave me an estimate. They were very honest with me and made me know that their work out was something I did not need. They didn't charge me for some service I did not require.

They had done some repairs on my mother's house, and they did a good job. They came out and were really good with the estimate and everything. On the house that I live in now, the foundation will need repair soon. He was nice and thorough. I had two other companies come out, and they were all within $500.

They did a really good job. They went through the upside and downside, and the whole nine yards. They were totally honest. They were very knowledgeable as far as the foundations stuff went. The price and quality were excellent. They were right there when they were supposed to be. The way the guy walked me through everything was very professional. He is really good at what he does. He took his shoes off when he came in the house. He obviously knows the drill very well. I would use them again for sure, and I have already recommended them to someone.

We had 5 piers put in for foundation repair. The bid was the highest but they matched the price of the middle bid. The owner came out himself to do the estimate and was very professional. The work was done as promised and they left the yard in the same condition as they found it. The workers were courteous. My only complaint was that they had to push the job back several days so the repairs were not completed on the first day that was scheduled. I would recommend Atlas Foundation repair to a friend or family member.

We got six estimates before deciding to go with Atlas Foundation. They were not the cheapest nor the most expensive. We liked the idea of the Free Lifetime Warranty. They also came highly recommended by our neighbors.
Description of Work
Atlas Foundation installed 17 pressed pilings, one through concrete. The work was completed in two days. Everyone was very professional and courteous. When they were done the crack in the wall had completely closed and the doors shut again. They repaired the mortar and caulking around the windows. We were pleased with the job they did.

It was great. They were prompt and finished the work in one day. The crack on the wall closed immediately. Anyone who didn't know about the foundation problem wouldn't even be able to tell it ever happened. They put back the shrubs and cleaned up well. The office staff was also very friendly and helpful in arranging the work and accepting my payment.
