There is a reason SD Footing Repair are the go-to contractor for historic homes like mine. They know the job inside and out, they work hard and efficiently, and they take pride in their work. SD Footing Repair replaced my perimeter foundation, along with a number of post and piers. Every single knowledgeable person, from the foundation engineer to the city inspector, has praised the work they performed. I never really thought much about foundations before, but I am actually proud to show off the foundation SD Footing Repair built for my house. It's that nice. We had the foundation certified and inspected without issue. Jason, the owner of SD Footing Repair, was on site frequently throughout the project, and was professional and easy to work with. It's obvious that he cares about his crew and his customers, and does everything he can to make an intimidating home renovation less intimidating. Replacing an entire foundation is an unpleasant project to have to undertake, especially on a historic home. At the end of the day, though, SD Footing Repair ensured the project was completed on-budget and ahead of schedule, with no drama. In fact, they even cleaned up the mess left by another contractor (literally). I would not hesitate to recommend SD Footing Repair to anyone needing foundation work, especially on a historic home.

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!

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!

A structural engineer referred me to Sure Safe Foundation Systems over 12 years ago, and I've been referring them out ever since. What makes them stand out is their patented system. It repairs and replaces foundations for significantly less than what traditional contractors charge. That alone is huge for sellers trying to close without blowing their net proceeds or without the potential buyer canceling. We have been able to prevent home sales from falling apart because a traditional foundation report came in at 75k-100k. We immediately got Suresafe in, and they were able to complete the work for a quarter of the price, all because of their system. But honestly, besides that, it's the people. Family-owned, and it shows. From the office staff to the crew in the field, everyone is professional, patient, and easy to work with. My clients always come back and say how much they liked them. If you own a home in San Diego and need foundation work, call Suresafe first. They are really awesome.
