If I ever do need foundation work I will definitely call Stable Foundations.
Mr. Thrift from Stable Foundation arrived the next day to provide a free assessment of the problem. Mr. Thrift observed the sloping floors on the main level and when into the basement to assess the problem. He did NOT bring a flashlight so we used my cell phone as his light. I told him before he came that this was a vacant property. He pointed out one of the piers that seemed to be lower that the other 2 piers. He said that I would have to jack-up the lower pier to correct the floor sloping on the main level. He made me aware that raising the pier would cause wall cracking on the upper stairs.
I said great, how much and when can you start. Mr. Thrift then said, "I do not this type of work?" Really... The reviews on Angie's list appeared to show that this is EXACTLY the work that he does. I asked him the direct question, is the house structurally sound. He said yes, just needs one pier jacked-up, besides a few cracked walls, no bid deal. I asked would he put his assessment in writing.
"NO WAY, I'm not an engineer, just a guy with a lot of experience looking at foundations"
My contractor has looked at the foundation and brought a flashlight. He showed me that the beam on top of the piers is cracked and needs to be replaced before you can start leveling the piers.
For me, a cracked foundation beam is a structural problem. Not happy at all with my experience with this "Stable Foundations"

to date no problems have resulted from this service
The work was performed quickly and cleanly. It was just a 2 person team, but they worked quickly and you could see that this was their specialty. When digging to get to the foundation, they made sure that my grass was protected from the mechanical digger and also from the dirt being dug up.
The one thing to be aware is that Stable Foundation only puts in the pilers to support the foundation, but they don't repair the cracks. You need to find a brick mason on your own to do that (cosmetic work). It is there plainly stated in contract, but I just want to make sure people are aware.
Overall, recommended.
