"Everything went as explained, diagramed, and promised by our System Design Specialist, Mr. Nicolas Hruska. We initially contacted just the top two Foundation Repair Experts listed on Angie's List because we can't afford to have our home repaired by anyone who lacks the proper credentials, staff, tools, training, techniques, supplies, 25 year transferrable warranty, and the hands on experience to deliver all services as promised. We are extremely pleased with the final results to take back our homes basement from poor workmanship done by the original builder and owner of our home back in 1979 We purchased the home in 2001 and unknown to us the foundation had been placed on top of clay based sub-soil which was an acceptable building practice back in 1979. Today's building codes prohibit this careless and costly practice of home site preparation for the homeowner. A word to the wise, do your home work first and then protect the biggest asset that most Americans have, their home. Respectfully, Kenny L. Hutcheson, CMSgt, USAF/USN, Ret. Indianola, Iowa"

"Jamie and his team over at Lawn & Landscape are ultimate professionals. They quoted me a price, and were able to level my large yard front and back, bury two tiles for drainage, and plant new grass seed in just 4 days. We were having issues with our backyard flooding and pooling, and that has been completely fixed, without damaging our existing fence. Best part? The final total was less than the original quote. I would and will recommend Supreme Lawn & Landscape to anyone who needs a landscaping company."

To find the right pro for your foundation project, start by collecting several estimates and asking for references. Make sure each contractor is licensed, insured, and has experience with projects like yours. Taking these steps helps you avoid hidden charges and ensures you're partnering with someone you can trust.
Concrete foundations last 80 to 100 years or beyond. They are designed to support your home over many decades when constructed with premium materials and precise installation methods. Factors like soil characteristics, severe weather, and systematic maintenance directly influence their endurance. Watch for early indications of damage such as uneven floors, bowed walls, or cracks, and consult a foundation expert immediately to preserve your home’s structural integrity.
The most cost-effective foundation option is the monolithic slab foundation. It merges the footing and slab in one continuous pour, reducing labor and material expenses significantly while providing a strong, unified base. Its efficient construction method minimizes disruptions and costs, ensuring an optimal balance of quality and affordability. This option offers homeowners a reliable, budget-friendly solution without sacrificing structural integrity.
