"John Perry underbid all others... with no plan to do the work at all. He preys on Senior Citizens! He requires half down. Sets up a date to supposedly do the work....then never shows up. Doesn’t answer his phone....then goes off when confronted. This is the absolute worst business person...born and raised in our area...to do business with. Always Painting and Restoration was the name of his business 3 businesses ago!!! He just closes them and gets a new person to back him then rips off more citizens. Beware of Always Painting and Contracting....his most current business name. The WALabor and Industries site shows a woman in Centralia as owner.... but This piece of work is just trying to figure out ways to rip people off but cover his butt as a limited liability partner. BEWARE!!! Do not shop the harbor first with this rip off!!!"

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

Some foundation repairs are permanent, like underpinning and exterior drainage systems like the French drain. These fixes address the underlying problems—insufficient support from the soil and hydrostatic pressure on your foundation walls, respectively—so they can last for many decades, making them “lifetime fixes.” There are other solutions to address these issues that will last for up to a decade, making them temporary. These include slabjacking to raise concrete slabs back into place and dampproofing to reduce the water in the soil that interacts with the concrete foundation.

You'll find a slurry of natural and synthetic polymers, rubbers, epoxies, and resins used to bond old concrete to new concrete. The right bonding agent depends on the method of concrete pouring you choose and whether you're adhering concrete over concrete or concrete over sand and gravel. Some concrete resurfacing mixtures contain bonding chemicals as well.

It is possible for a slab leak to cause a sinkhole, but it would have to be a particularly serious leak. A slab leak causes the land under your home to erode and if there is enough movement depressions will form in the ground, potentially causing a sinkhole.

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.

There are a few ways to reinforce a pier and beam foundation, including installing additional piers and beams for added support and performing underpinning, which redistributes the weight of your home further down into the ground where frost and soil expansion don’t pose a threat to the foundation. The best option for reinforcement varies based on your particular home and the soil conditions beneath it.
