He never returned the phone call and just texted to say that he couldn't answer any questions without a $1600 site visit. Not even a call to discuss what services he provided and what the $1600 would include. I found another engineering / design company (Reverence Engineering) who called me back immediately. The owner spent 45 minutes on the phone with me teaching me about the process of permitting and what a site visit would look like. Needless to say, I went with reverence engineering.

He offered many different solutions and kept cost in mind; his knowledge was so much better than other bids. Once the work started his crew was here for 11 total days and they were just gentlemen.

Just the best - don't hesitate to use them. Rob S

My mom passed about a year ago and I was in the process of getting ready to sell her house. We had…read moreprevious problems with foundation issues and spent a considerable amount of money securing the house about ten years ago with caisons and I thought this nightmare was over. I recently went down the canyon to do some gardening and noticed the lower hillside right below our property line was giving way. I thought to myself this nightmare was starting again. So I started reviewing my options and came across the name Azar builders. I was extremely impressed with his reviews so I made an appointment with Pete to come out to discuss the situation. Well the five star reviews were right on the money. Not only was Pete extremely knowledgeable, he put my mind at ease that everything was going to be okay. He should be called the "hillside therapist". He came up with an affordable solution and did not try to upsell me during the process. He methodically went through the whole process with me and boy did I have a ton of questions for him. He assured me he would rectify the situation. He fit me into his busy schedule and I got to know his crew very well. I would go down the canyon on a daily basis and his crew worked like clock work. Pete would instruct them on what to do but it was like they already knew exactly what they were doing. They worked to together so well and completed the job in about a week. I could not be happier with the work that Pete and his crew did at our residence. I am a retired 35 year Law enforcement officer who is usually very skeptical of contractors and their practices but Pete is the cream of the crop. He is a no BS type of guy who does what he says and backs up his work. I would highly recommend him and his fine company and crew.

Michele, one of the owners, was able to get me into the schedule for a free estimate the following week. Tom, the other owner, came the following week to inspect the foundation and look over the structural engineer assessment. Tom was very nice and personable. After a few days, Michele was able to get me a quote and get me in the books for November. I asked her to put me on the cancellation list. Usually companies don't really move us ahead, but Michele was very quick about the appointment books. She first moved me up a week and then she asked me if they could start work the first week of October. Jason, his foreman, and his crew were very quick and knew what they were doing. They got the job done in 2 days for a 1180sq foot house. I want to personally thank Michele for being amazing. She replies very quickly to you even though she's super busy with all the admin work. I asked for a receipt and she got it to me asap. Tom and Jason, who are the other owners, were very friendly and will answer all your questions. Their foreman was very nice too. He was the first one at the house and the last one to leave. He explained to me what was going on. They have competitive pricing. I chose them over the other contractors because they know what they're doing and they will make sure to complete the job by the deadline. Thank you again Michele!

Our foundation had a crack that needed to have substance put in it and a couple of braces. He gave us a highly competitive quote (we interviewed three companies) and was professional and knowledgeable about our foundation, explaining the procedures for repairs in detail. We had an emergency sewer problem almost immediately after his visit and Michele at the office was very understanding about our timeline when we needed to address the other issue first. Michele was always available to answer our questions and was so kind to offer an understanding ear during our sewer repair emergency. Happily the day of our work was even moved up a few weeks before scheduled which we appreciated due to the holiday. Dustin, Hirhm, and Lance - our foundation team, arrived early the day of work and were friendly and professional as they worked quickly and effectively on the only day projecting afternoon rain for months. The team worked tirelessly under our house for over six hours and explained work to us if we had questions. They cleaned up everything very well and even bussed out the two extra pieces from our foundation that had crumbled off. At the end, Dustin took some amazing pictures for us and kept the team working hard with his sunny personality and can do spirit. We have recommended San Diego Footing Repair to our family and friends in need of such services and feel very grateful for their expert work.

Joshua was absolutely fantastic! I can't recommend him enough…read more From the very beginning, I knew I was in good hands. He used a laser to accurately determine the leveling of my mobile home and even brought a robot camera underneath the house so he could show me exactly what was going on. I really appreciated his honesty and transparency throughout the entire process. His pricing was fair, and he kept me informed every step of the way. Joshua brought two crew members with him, supervised the work personally, and the entire team was fast, friendly, professional, and efficient. What really stood out was the pride he takes in his work. As part of the leveling, he made sure all of my doors were properly adjusted and functioning correctly. The previous contractor had done a terrible job installing them, and Joshua took the time to fix the issues and make them right. He also repaired my skirting, fixed my gutter drain, and took care of several other small things he noticed along the way without me even asking. It's rare to find someone who is this honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to doing quality work. He clearly cares about his customers and wants the job done right--not just done quickly. If you're looking for someone who is trustworthy, fairly priced, and stands behind his work, I highly recommend Joshua. The quality of his work exceeded my expectations, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you, Joshua, for going above and beyond!

Here's someone you can trust and highly recommended through others that essentially support each other because in foundation work and engineering... they go hand in hand. You can feel confident here, Jake was a recommendation through a Civil Engineer that was another well known good recommendation to us. ( you see where this is going?) Ha! Jake is licensed and bonded current, he also runs a very good team, his workers are hard working guys, respectful and you can tell that Jake (owner) is a good business Man. He himself is very down to earth, honest and he'll tell you honest everything you want to know and by us asking a ton of questions, he'll start feeling like family because just how the conversations flow and how comfortable you feel. He takes his time, making sure that what his findings also match up with the civil engineer findings. *****please note**** we hired a civil engineer beforehand to check our foundation.....its worth the report and they essentially write the recipe and guys like Jake bake the cake. Its important you need both if you want to feel confident in your choices for your home, because that's what we did. Jake is a rare and gem find, he'll tell you what you need, and is extremely knowledgeable. Not his first rodeo. The work guys are extremely well knowledgeable and are experienced in what they do. This is a solid foundation company (get it?) To trust to get an honest quote, opinion and work. So if you need that community know someone.... here's your guy! Jake! We're so happy with the work, and no more trampoline effects in the house and our doors now open n close with ease. We're sad to see you guys move on, it was an honor to work with you guys. Best wishes and good vibes always! Happy yelpers, and piece of Best vibes to send out... always offer hydration and a good lunch to those amazing workers that work hard! Cheers!!

His work is solid and always will stand by it. We had an engineer verify it and he made corrections to make it up to snuff within a week. VERY IMPRESSED. The work is good. The price is good.
