I would highly suggest looking elsewhere to find a solution for your home issues. Not only did this company install the piers, humidifier, and encapsulation, they have been back multiple times for service calls. Each visit they said everything looks good under the floor. These pictures were taken by a home inspector recently. Tilted piers does not â look goodâ to me. The last time they came they changed the filter on the humidifier. I guess I can tell that was done by the discarded one they left under the floor. They could not explain why the humidity reading under the floor did not match the one on the control in the house. They were supposed to call the company and get back with me. I havenâ t heard a word. As you can see, the ductwork is on the ground and there is moisture on top of the vapor barrier in areas not even close to plumbing or anything else that could cause moisture. Now my floors are sagging causing damage to my home and I have to pay to have all of this work done again. Please take the time to read the better business bureau complaints about this company as well. Iâ m not an expert in home construction and stability so I hire people that are supposed to be and assume they are going to be honest and trustworthy. Unfortunately, that was not the case here. They showed me brochures of what looked to be a great solution with piers going to bedrock into the ground but they gave me what you see in the pictures on this review. Be careful who you select and good luck.

It was crawl space remediation and encapsulation. Didn't find this on selections of choices. Michael, Shana, Anthony did a great job. They took the time to explain all procedures used to correct our crawl space. I would highly recommend them.

Michale and his crew kept me well informed. I had to be at work and was very concerned about leavening my home open to strangers!! Within a few hours I was feeling much better about the situation I had pictures and videos step by step it was like I was there. After they finished I was very surprised at well the workmanship was and clean my place was left. Now Im waiting to se this system work I am ready to put it to the test !!!!

David Duggers was extremely professional and courteous. He crossed all the t's and dotted the i's while preforming the annual inspection for the crawl space in our home. I wish all businesses were as efficient as 58 Foundations.

Michael and Shannon did an incredible job on our basement waterproofing system! I highly recommend this service and the lifetime warranty they provide. We interviewed several other companies before we decided on 58 Foundations / BDRY.

Very friendly and truly care about their work. They installed supports to raise the sagging which we can now close doors and creaks no longer visible.

Make sure the person giving the estimate explains exactly what it looks like. They did not bring their own water to mix the cement. We had to remove the water tank so that they could work and ended up hauling water from the neighbors house.

Concrete work was complete unleveled and will most likely lead to cracking. Was told to call if it should crack and they will repair. Basement room was not swept following job and plastic was left up and hanging.

The representative who initially came to the house to explain BDry's procedure was very courteous and professional. I received a quote on the spot. I had two other companies come out (one company did not even bother to get back to me with an estimate). Each company had a different opinion of what needed to be done and BDry's procedure was the least invasive and made the most sense. The team who actually did the work was very courteous and stayed until the job was done - a 12 hour process. (That was one question I didn't think to ask - approximately how long would it take) They communicated with us throughout the day, for example they asked where we wanted the sump pump to drain, instead of just making the decision. Overall, I am very happy we chose BDry.!
