About us

Established in 1933, Olshan Foundation provides cost-effective foundation solutions to residential and commercial property owners. Services are backed by an available lifetime warranty, friendly customer support and convenient financing options. Free, no-obligation structural assessments are performed by Certified Structural Technicians. Since no two homes are alike, our Technicians carefully inspect the problems affecting your home before developing a comprehensive repair plan designed uniquely to your property. Olshan is the exclusive provider of the Cable Lock ST Plus repair system. This hybrid design combines the penetrating power of concrete with the long-term durability of steel, providing a longer, deeper more secure repair. We also offer drainage and root barriers to help prevent foundation damage. Schedule a free, no-obligation assessment now. Your home’s structural integrity depends on the strength of your foundation. It supports everything else – walls, windows, floors, doorways, roof – so when your foundation is damaged, it can cause serious problems throughout your home. Like most things in life, your foundation is subject to environmental stress. Expanding and contracting soil, excessive moisture and inadequate drainage are some of the most common threats to your home’s foundation. Over time, environmental stressors can cause a foundation to shift, crack or settle unevenly. And homeowners often miss early warning signs of foundation damage. Homeowners spend about $4 billion annually stabilizing faulty foundations, and those costs may increase as more homes are built in areas known for shifting soil. Understanding risk factors and signs of foundation problems can help you protect your most valuable asset from irreversible damage.

I had the Cable Lock foundation system installed a few years ago. The install went fine. The system comes with a lifetime adjustment warranty. I started calling them a year ago to get them to come out to make an adjustment. However, I cannot get them to call or email me back. This is, by far, the worst customer service I have ever experienced.

The did not show up for our initial appointment.
Description of Work: We made an appointment on Oct 21, 2015 for Nov 4, 2015 to see if we needed their service. When the date arrived, my husband took off work to meet them. They never showed up. He called to see what happened and was told we weren't on their schedule. The women he talked with didn't seem too concerned and said she would check on it and call back. We haven't heard back from them.

I could never get a written estimate. They gave the estimate to my tenant, but not me. When I asked them to send one to me I don't think they actually kept a copy. I had discussions with them at least three times so that is kind of where it ended. The supervisor called me, but he could not give me a copy either.

They came out to review the previous work for insurance claim purposes. Since working with a structural engineer, I would like to recommend that anyone thinking they need foundation repair, to go the extra $200-$300 and hire a structural engineer first. We have been working with a very reputable SE and he has told me that Olshan has been before the board of engineers many times. They are not engineers. Our engineer said that the previous owner should not have had piers installed. When I asked for the elevation levels from Olshan from the initial date of install, I was told there was none taken. It was hard to get someone to call me back from Olshan whenever I had questions. I was disappointed to learn the home we bought was fine before the piers were installed unnecessarily. I was also disappointed that after they had to dig up our landscape bushes, they weren't put back in properly and so some of our landscape died after their work was done.
Description of Work: They came out to reinspect previous work done by the previous owners. Having them just come out to review or reinspect is scheduled out almost 2 months out!

Olshan Foundation Repair put us on the list and said they would get back to us but they never did. Finally we called and I talked to the manager who said they would be down next week and then they did but it was a problem originally getting them to come out when they said they were going to come out and do it. Once they did then they got right at it and got the job done. We got kind of the runaround originally.

Off Home Depot website i asked for a estimate over the phone, and was contacted by Olshan. I answered several questions such as how many gallons, where it was located, etc. I was given a quote of $700, but an on site review was needed for the final quote. My appointment was between 4-7 pm, but they called early at 3:30 to advise they were on the way. I had contacted 2 other plumbers and they didnt seem too interested and the quotes were much higher. Ray and Andy were very friendly, professional, and we joked around a bit about how sad my old tank was. When the tank was moved, the bottom collapsed and fell out. Ray advised that my water heater was not up to code, and would need additional work, the price of $1465.00 was given. My old tank sat on the garage floor. I would need: a stand, gas shutoff valve, gas flex line, inlet water valve, hammer arrestors,drip leg , drip pan and supply lines. It took at least 3 hours, and they removed the old tank, cleaned up all the mess. Ray took the time to answer all my questions and show me everything they did, how to light the pilot , how often and how to drain the tank to make it last longer. I didnt want to spend quite that much, but it was needed. Ray and Andy made the experience a positive one. I would call them again if any work was needed. Update 5/29/13 A city inspector came out to check out the installation, and it Failed .I asked about daylight showing thu the vent that went from the top of the heater thu my roof, they said that was okay. Before they started they showed me electrical wires too near the roof vent, however they failed to fix that issue. The inspector said he would advise the plumbers about the problems. As of June 12/2013 , Olshan has yet to contact me. It has turned out very unprofessional. June 25/2013 Olshan came back out. I was told everything was fixed, but I dont trust them. While I was pointing out daylight coming in thu the vent, he got so frustrated with me he walk out of the garage. He did come back and apologize. he left without a fix on the sun shining in. July 9/2013 Olshan called to see how the work went, I told the girl what was going on. She said a supervisor would call back. The did not.

I relied upon Olshan's expert to tell me what was settling on our house, causing our front door to not close and cracking in the sheetrock. We took his advice and signed the contract. After completion, we waited 6 months like they told us before replacing the sheetrock and flooring. Within a couple of months more, cracking started again in the sheetrock and we began to see separation in our wood flooring. Also the front door began sticking again. We called to have the piers adjusted and on the day of the appointment the foreman came out and started bad mouthing the first consultant that had said we needed 9 piers. He continued to complain about the salesmen not knowing what they were doing. After the adjustments were made, the door was working once again. Within a year the door bagan to stick again. We called and asked that if they were going to send someone out that they not send the same foreman that they had sent the last time. They said they would sent the Tulsa foreman instead. The same foreman showed up at our doorstep and started in on bad mouthing the salesman again and said that he would need to drill piers through our new wood flooring to fix the problem. Since we didn't believe him and we were concerned about having to spend ANOTHER $15000 to replace our wood flooring and sheetrock, we told him no that day and sent an email to Olshan's headquarters. They then sent out a guy from Texas that told us our problem isn't the north side of the house, but has been the south side of the house all along. He suggested 19 new piers, but none within 18 feet of the front door. He sent out a crew to adjust the piers on the north and they showed up today, Dec 15,2012. They started to adjust the piers which began causing new cracks in the sheetrock, so they stopped and lowered the north side back into place. So overall, the problem has gotten worse, they have tried to adjust the piers they installed, but if the guy from Texas is to be believed, then we didn't need those piers at all. While they did come out several times when we called to complain, the problem still persists and the foreman today, Rafael, says that he doesn't have any idea what would make our front door operable again. My advice would be first to not use Olshan, and second to get several different opinions from foundation companies before you commit.
Description of Work: Olshan sent out a foundation repair specialist to tell us what the problem with our house was and to provide the solution. The work crew came out and installed the piers when they said they would and completed the job in what appeared to be a good workmanlike manner to a typical homeowner that knows nothing about foundations. Since then they have sent out several different people to try to figure out what was wrong and to try to sell us more piers. They have adjusted the piers they installed twice and the problem has gotten worse.

This company was extremely professional. The appointment was scheduled quite a way out, due to heavy call volume. However, the company sent reminders twice and called me a couple days before just to make sure I was still available. After looking at the problem and discussing options with me, he was incredibly honest about what I should do (which would mean no income for him). I cannot begin to express how much I appreciate this honesty and integrity from a company.

I scheduled an appointment several months in advance for an assessment of foundation repair. On the morning of the appointment, an Olshan representative called to advise the service technician was ill. Another appointment was scheduled for November 29. On the day of that appointment, an Olshan representative called to advise that their technician's truck was broke down and we would have to reschedule again. I have not had any further contact with Olshan. Based on this experience and apparent lack of depth of Olshan personnel in the Oklahoma City area, I cannot recommend them.

They may do an excellent job. I wouldn't know. Never received a call back after calling them to come look at some perceived damage. In total I called 3 companies. 2 responded and actually came out and looked and gave opinions. Olshan never called me back even though I had gotten through to an individual who answers the phones.

They did a great job making the repair and didn't charge us anything. We've kept their card and we will be using them again. They had installed the hot water heater over a year ago and when I was out in the garage, I heard it leaking so we called him. He repaired it and didn't charge us anything.

Overall it went well, I would use them again but I did have a problem. When the sales person came he wrote us an estimate, when the crew got here to do the work someone had changed the contract by marking out what he quoted me and marked a cheaper product. They did go ahead and install the pier he quoted but only becuase I was standing there and knew it wasn't right. The crew that did the work were great, they were here on time, did the work they said they would and were gone by 5.30pm with very little signs they had been here!

At first they said 1-2 days & I took off work for 2 days. They were on time & said they would most likely take 1 day. I guess they leveled the house ok, which is what we needed. However, they left their work area in a disaster & after many weeks, the ground finally stopped sinking. I was very grateful that my husband and sons could continually fill in the deep sink holes. My guys were going to do the cement work instead of them and I was greatful for that decision. The ground under the would-be concrete was one of the areas that had massive sink holes. The flower & shrub areas were destroyed, but I can accept that because those plants would not have lived anyway because of the sink holes. I have before and after pictures. Also, only one person spoke English, which is ok because I could communicate with him and he was polite and respectful. I left several messages about the sink holes to the company, but no one called back. I guess that I should have continued to try to speak to a person, but I thought if they did come back, I would need to take off from work again, with no pay. So, my guys filled the holes in, while complaining to me about my choice of companies. Most likely I would use them again, but I will ensure that the holes are correctly packed & the yard looks presentable before they leave. The company sent me a $100 certificate if someone that I refer hires them. However, I have been thinking about returning it because I would feel bad about giving them a reference. I did not get a Home Depot Gift Certificate, which is mentioned in the website. I just hope that they fixed my problem and they did give a warranty for their service.
Description of Work: The bricks were separating on the west side of the house, along with the fireplace separating from the house at the top. This wasn't a good sign and we called four other companies for estimates. They were all about the same cost and I chose Olshan because it had been business for a long time, it had a good reputation, and the person who came out to do the estimate was super nice. He was very professional, friendly, and he seemed to know what he was doing.

The work they did seemed to be okay but their clean up after the work was pretty bad. I think their price was comparable to anybody else?s price. It is all hidden. The only thing that I can see is the repair patchwork that they have done and the holes that did not get quite filled back up again. The problems in the foundation seem to be taken care of. We were having a lot of work being done at that time and there were a lot of people around the house. I cannot recall enough about the experience to comment on their responsiveness and punctuality. I did not have a whole lot of interaction with them. A lot of the workers did not speak English. Their professionalism seemed to be okay. We will probably use this company in the future.

They were professional and did a good job. They used a new type of material in the cinder block called Crystalline. What it does is soak up moisture in the cinder block. It stops it from entering the block. I got 3 estimates and they were the most reasonably priced. I was pleased with their work. I would hire them again.
