Re: foundation repair recommendation?

This is who fixed our foundation at the old house. Their prices were the best out of the people we talked to. Also, the owner comes out and stays with the workers. Things move very fast and they get the job done!

Just as a warning, I have an appointment on our old house to get a warranty check on work done 10 years ago... and it's for Nov 30th.
These foundation people are more popular than ever with the drought.
Allied Foundation
Olshan Foundation
Village Foundation
Atlas Foundation
Just some more names that have been around a long time. Olshan will likely be the priciest. Good luck.
Also, is the crack in your brick or mortar? Brick does crack, but if it is in your mortar and a crack that moves through the mortar, you have a problem. You may want to see about getting an engineer to look at it if you're unsure... I would be nervous a foundation company wouldn't be quick to tell you you don't have a problem. Other signs of foundation issues, cracked sheetrock, especially if it is diagonal cracks at doorways, sticking doors, cracked tile on the floor, etc.
Just a thought..
Allied Foundation... or AAA Foundation.
Olshan is impressive, but their prices will make you cry...
It's a crack in the mortar that stair steps around the brick. And the matching crack in the sheetrock inside developed at the same time. So I'm pretty sure it's foundation.
Yikes, I am sorry. Just make sure you get a transferable foundation warranty. I think after this summer, foundation repair will be more widely accepted, but it has scared a lot of people away from buying our house and it really surprised me.
