FREEMAN CONTRACTING CO INC

Description of Work: Doesn't do what I needed but very nice.

Description of Work: Had 5 retention rods installed a 47' foundation wall with gravel backfill plus gravel backfill only on the 24' adjacent wall, an external sump pump, epoxy injection with carbon fiber crack repairs on both walls, and regrading to direct yard drainage away from both walls. Job was completed in the Nov-Dec 2016 period and done professionally.

Description of Work: They repaired our foundation.

Description of Work: We had to have the stone foundation of our 115 yr old 3-story home in Tower Grove braced with 23 piers, due to the terrible drought in 2012. The particularly intense clay composition of the soil on our lot further exacerbated the problem. The combination of these was a perfect storm to cause cracking on interior walls, and in exterior brick. We had several companies come out and bid, but only Freeman would tackle the job because of an older system of bracing blocks under the front wall, which further complicated the job. | |After 3.5 months of digging, excavating, and then driving piers down to bedrock from inside the basement, we were confident that the problem was solved in the best possible manner. However, the difficulty of demolishing and excavating portions of the large blocks from a prior attempt at fixing settling drew the process out more than double the time originally estimated. Likewise, the cost of the job was more than double the initial estimate. We were certainly not pleased by this. But Jim Freeman constantly explained the causes of all this, and assured us that the solution was the best possible way to deal with it. His constant availability, presence on the site, and sharing of the engineering plans/details, were the only things which helped ease the frustration of having to deal with this problem. In the end we found Freeman Contracting very professional in their work, punctuality, and detail, but we do wish they would have had a better idea about the level the cost from the offset.

Description of Work: Kevin Douglas inspected our chimney & house for an issue we were having with 2 walls separating. We were concerned that the chimney was pulling away from the house causing the separation. He was thorough & professional. Provided suggestions as to the cause & approach to dealing with the problem. He assured us that the chimney was not pulling away & said we did not need the services of his company. We appreciate his honesty. If we ever do need those services, we would certainly contact Freeman Contracting!
