Based on the report, we engaged Foundation Solutions for the repairs. After a quick call for an appointment, I met with Collin to go over all necessary repairs. He was very professional and explained the scope of the work and details on how each of the repairs will be done. Once the quote was ready, Collin followed-up to see if there were any questions. The quote was very reasonable and I quickly went with them. Scheduling the work was also easy and only took the crew a couple of days to complete the job. Great experience overall!

We just did a mid size project with them last month. We had them underpin one side of the house and…read morereplace a good amount of posts and repair some cracks in our foundation. Brett came out to do an assessment on our entire foundation and his finding was consistent with our own inspection report. Their recommendation is also on par and we find that Brett is quite knowledgeable about the scope of work. He is also very patient, responsive and respectful throughout the estimating project while we took a long time to decide, a lot of follow ip questions and requests. Not once that I felt rushed, pushed or disrespected. The team kept me informed on the timeline of permit, project starting time, inspection and completion, everything was transparent. They passed inspection without problemsx Our foreman is Humberto who was polite, dependable and kept me well informed on the work they performed the day of, when they finished work and provided needed before and after pictures. I also find their pricing is reasonable compared to other companies that we interviewed with the experience that far exceeds their piers. Overall I had a good experience with the crew. They are polite and really didn't interfere with our life that much while they work. I would recommend them for all foundation repair needs. Be careful because lots of foundation companies will scam you, just because you will not be able to see what they did underneath your crawl space. The last foundation company came out to fix our house they made a bunch of noise for 2 weeks, said they are done and then we hired an independent inspector and confirmed they did nothing. Spend the money on a good company. This one is probably the best one ( we interviewed 6 companies)

On the whole I give Foundation Repair of CA high marks. But first, I'll offer an observation…read morehaving nothing to do with that company. Foundation repair involves a lot of digging resulting in a good deal of dirt piling up. Do it during a rainy spell, and there will be mud - lots of it. You have been warned. Avoid scheduling during the rainy season if you can. Let me start with several complaints. First, Foundation Repair should have been a bit more attentive to clean up. Finding a discarded plastic water bottle in the crawlspace maybe isn't the worst thing, but for the healthy-sized check I had to write for the work, a bit more attention to the finishing touches would not be asking too much. Likewise, for finishing touches, I was left with a significant problem. Part of the structure of my deck required removal to do the work. Foundation Repair said they'd repair the structure when done. They did so but, as I discovered after they were gone, the job was so badly executed I had to redo it on my own. Fortunately, I had the necessary tools, but at the age of 78 and working alone, this was a major undertaking. In retrospect, I should have demanded they return and do it right. Now, on to the positives. First a major shout out to Foundation Repair's Christopher Gerrans who gave me some major assistance in getting prepared for the work. He went far, far above and beyond what I expected to help me out. Foundation Repair management, do please remember this when bonus time comes around. I had a lot of trepidation about getting a bid for this work. Foundation repair is an expensive proposition. I was impressed (and relieved) when I was presented with a comprehensive three-tier set of job plan options (I ended up opting for the most expensive). My point is that Foundation Repair (specifically, Mr. Gerrans, again) did a great job up front in helping me to understand what my options were. I was quite impressed with the technology employed to shore up the house. Does it work, though? Well, if the house is still intact a half century from now, then the answer is yes. So, only time will tell if the work was effective. But it certainly looked like a solid and dependable solution. The work was done in timely fashion, and communication was good throughout. Foundation work is an expensive proposition, but I think I got my money's worth from Foundation Repair and would not hesitate to recommend them.

(Note however that they provide a rough initial emailed estimate based on house info like sq footage- for an in person inspection there is a fee, but it is credited towards the final cost if you go with them. They do an extra thorough inspection and provide full documentation so in my experience it is worth it even if you don't go with them.) Other free inspection contractors by contrast ran through quickly and provided few to little details on the actual reinforcement plan. My crawlspace had a section of perimeter foundation that was blocked by concrete and required drilling a hole to properly reinforce- none of the other contractors noted this. Avant Garde not only noticed this but also did not charge extra for it. After the work they worked quickly with us on the documentation to get us our grant check. I did crawl the crawlspace just to inspect the work and it was done neatly and the area was left clean. Very happy with the experience and would not hesitate to recommend.

We knew we had foundation problems for years our floors were slanted and wall cracks around three windows over the downhill side but isses have worsened over the years. We painted over some cracks but knew it was time to address the underline issue before starting a relatively large remodel. Our neighbor had golden gate foundation repair fix their crawlspace last year and they recommended them so we had them come out. We had two companies inspect the foundation so we could compare some estimates. Jonathan came over on a Saturday which was helpful and did the inspection and went over the issues with us. What he recommended made the most sense to us. The other contractor was nice but was another salesperson and we had just spent months dealing with salespeople while planning the remodel. Golden gate gave us more confidence their bid was more involved and the price was fair. And they're a local small business, which we appreciate. We did our diligence and are very pleased with our decision. We would like to thank Ashley for helping with our scheduling conflicts. Thank you to their engineer Clifford for allowing me to pick his brain a little, and for all his work with the city. Our permit went faster than we expected and I suspect Clifford played a part in that. Equally important we want to thank Kevin, Farren, and everyone who worked on the concrete part. We installed steel pier underpinnings around the downhill side of our foundation and they leveled the house over 3inches at the worst section. Those guys worked hard and didn't leave their trash around the yard. In my experience some contractors don't keep us in the loop as much as much as they should so I appreciate the updates we received throughout. I hope we'll never need foundation help again but if we do, we'll be using golden gate. We recommend. Thank you to the GGFR team -A & D
