Get matched with top home inspectors in Tukwila, WA

"Came out and inspected. Found that my foundation was just fine. Noted a non serious slope in basement slab, but said it could wait a long time. Didn’t need to spend 20-30k on a fix."

"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."

"Brian was fantastic. Extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and thoughtful inspector. Some inspectors rush through a job and just document their findings. Brian thinks about potential root causes and explains them to his clients, so that we fully understand the issues in his report. I would definitely hire him again. FLIR infrared imaging for leak detection is included. Highly recommended if you’re purchasing a home!"

"We hired SFW to repair our new home that had undisclosed water damage at the time of purchase. TJ was the supervisor assigned to our project and his work was exceptional. TJ is professional, knowledgeable, considerate, kind, thoughtful, courteous, detail oriented, punctual, and always adheres to safety standards. His interpersonal skills are excellent as well. Throughout the entire project, he kept me informed and was transparent about everything related our home restoration. Furthermore, he went above and beyond on multiple occasions to help my family navigate a water damage and new home experience. When we needed documentation of the damage, he helped us by taking 100s of photos. When other new home related projects popped up, TJ was gracious about facilitating the additional projects for us through SFW. We had a gate installed, new hardware installed throughout the house, our cement deck replaced with Timber Tech, and several other small projects that we kept adding to the list! We are extremely grateful to everyone at SFW who worked with us during this 8-month (unexpected) project. Shout out to Jerry, Jay, Jordan, Dominic, Richard, and Jonas! They were also incredibly professional, caring, and helpful during this journey. Jordan was transparent and patient with all things related to billing, Jerry was excellent at managing subcontractors and responsive to our needs as a family. Jerry also provided us a detailed report of SFW findings for our records. Dominic was respectful, professional, kind, detail oriented, and always went above and beyond. TJ and Dominic and other crew members were also incredibly kind to our two dogs and respectful of our privacy in the house. If you are going to have a crew in and around your home, it's sure nice to know they are genuinely professional and considerate human beings. Thank you, TJ, and everyone at SFW! Because of your exceptional work, our home has been restored beautifully. I highly recommend SFW for all your home improvement needs."

"Mike was recommended to me by someone whose opinion I trust. When I reached out, he responded right away with his availability. At the end of the inspection, he shared detailed notes; the following day he emailed his full report to me. A total professional who's also personable. I honestly cannot recommend Mike highly enough."

"Benny & Joe performed the work and did an outstanding job. They were friendly, courteous and very professional. I will definitely hire them again in the future."
