Response from ALL AMERICAN FOUNDATION REPAIR & DRAINAGE, LLC
When I first drove up to the customers home seven years ago from the street it was one of the worst foundations we have ever seen. The foundation was out almost ten inches and looked like the home was falling off the hill. Now when you drive up and walk up to the home the foundation looked good even after seven years. I have been back to this home several times over the years and every time we ask if they ever repaired the failed sewer line leak from July 8, 2014. Now after seven years with no report from customer of ever doing plumbing repairs the garage brick at the corner that was down ten inches before has separated at the top on one side only 1/2 of an inch. Last week at no charge to the customer we adjusted two piers on the corner of the garage and again ordered another plumbing test but do not at this time have the results. We have attached the failed sewer line test from seven years ago. Thank You! Dave H***

Did not cover guarantee. Requested another quote to fix issues that arised after 6 years he did the repair. Never sent quote. His worker destroyed one of my side wing walls when he did a partial repair. He did a terrible job. Sent pictures to owner of the destroyed wall, he reacted with anger and disrespectfully, and wanted me to pay for the bad repair. Never covered guarantee. In his contract, the year term of the guarantee is not even stated. Owner does not care for customer satisfaction, only about making money .

We did more adjustments after several plumbing leaks. The third time we did ajustments the charge was $1200 including adjusting wingwall again. We always had trouble coiiecting for repairs and customer never paid for the last repairs. We are not going to do more new work caused from another plumbing leak when customer still owes for last repair. The customer is so hard to work with that the franchises he owned forced him to sell them all back. Dave Hall

This did not go as planed ..Buyer Be Ware!!! I always get several estimates for possibly expensive projects .. Dave came and did his “inspection” after showing me a video of what appeared to be an old public access Tv Commercial and extolling all the virtues and glory of who he’s worked for with a nifty notebook .. He then explained what “his” inspection showed and what he planed to do.. well at a cost of almost $9000 dollars I have to say that was a bit of a surprise .. But no worries Super Dave can fix it.. Then comes the pressure .. Sign now! We can start ASAP ! Don’t you see all I’ve done in My career ? I’ve moved buildings. So sign! Did I mention. If you Pay cash or check we give you 5% off .. you should sign! Look at all the letters in this notebook ! Sign ! Well needless to say I didn’t sign I got other estimate am glad I did 2 other Foundation company’s came and gave me the same estimate ..We can’t recommend any work you need ... we noticed that you’d had previous shim work done it looks good too and as for your sticking doors one turned out to be bent metal flashing the other too were minor and caused by slight rise due to the excessive rain we’ve had this year . Even had pictures from my crawl space to show where one beam had actually risen a slight bit above one spot of pervious shims .. Both recommendations was wait a bit for house to settle back down if I noticed any change at all they would both come back and re inspect .. So I leave you with this always get multiple estimates educate your self on the basics of what the repair could and should be,, and don’t ever Sign Now! If it’s quality work it’s not going to be be made better by Signing Noe.. Buyer Be Ware e mail me for the names of the other company’s Ps both company’s have been in foundation work as long as Dave! too..

I gave a free bid only! When I arrived, you were in from out of town to visit your rental home. The only thing in the home was a blow-up mattress. I told you if signed up this week I could do the work before you left next Wednesday. You forgot to mention the other bid from Structured Foundation bid for $8,500.00 putting piers on the highest part of your home up front and the [Member Information Removed] down one side of the garage, but not both sides of the garage in the back. That means you had two companies' bids that I know of doing piers around your garage. The door going in the garage is off in both directions and is buckling. The door going into the laundry room was also off next to the garage. This is what causing the cracks in the walls. The other doors sticking is because the center of the home needs to be re-shimmed in the middle. You told me you were going to remodel the bathrooms and kitchen. I told you since it was a rental you could do nothing, and it would still rent but if you were going to spend the money to remodel, I would do the foundation repair first. The video I showed you is not the work I did working for other companies; I owned the company that did the steel erection coast to coast for 28 years. The five percent discount was because the price I give you was paying with a credit card. I did not say if you pay by cash, I said check. I did not high pressure you, I told if you signed up by Friday to accommodate your schedule leaving next Wednesday. We could complete the project starting on Monday and that was the only reason for you to decide that week, not mine. You called me complaining about doors sticking and cracks. If you call enough companies, you will get bids from zero to the moon. I guess you chose to use the companies that are going to use magic. Dave Hall

When it comes to fixing the foundation of your home, I have learned it is best to hire someone who has had many years of experience in the industry. One such person is Dave Hall with All-American Foundation Repair & Drainage. After seeking bids from ten different companies and much deliberation, we finally selected Mr. Hall's because he was brutally honest about the condition of our foundation. To preface, we had had his company come out to take measurements a year and a half ago toward the end of summer 2017. When we were ready to finance the project, we hired an independent structural engineer to draft a report toward the end of winter of this year. Dave was concerned that the recommendations by the engineer wouldn't be sufficient due to his prior knowledge of how the foundation settles during the warmer seasons. When we provided the additional data to the engineer, he agreed with Dave's assessment and updated the engineering report accordingly. Other companies with lesser knowhow might have overlooked this potential problem, and the last thing you want is to have your concrete piers fail. This instance demonstrated to us that Dave was the right person for the job. He genuinely treated our home like his own, and his crew handled everything with great care. Frank Medina, the crew foreman, arrived on time with his team and completed the work, including the drainage installation around the exterior, in less than two days, which was much sooner than we originally anticipated. They graded the soil around our home, filled in any drilled holes with fresh cement, and left everything looking neat and tidy. With as much digging as they had to do, I was quite impressed. They even hauled away some older bushes we had been meaning to get rid of and came back at a later date to connect our newly installed gutter downspouts to the drainage system. I highly recommend All-American Foundation Repair & Drainage. Dave offers a lifetime warranty on materials and ten years on labor, and the pricing is reasonable with various discounts available. We can't thank you enough, Dave, Frank, and team!

We were provided a hand-drawn layout of the home with various markings included to indicate where piers would need to be added to level the foundation. The experience was quick, efficient, and very professional. The owner, Dave, performed the evaluation himself and provided recommendations and advice as to how to prevent future shifting of the home. Our current budget did not allow for the repairs to be performed at the time of inspection, but we will certainly consider All American Foundation Repair & Drainage, LLC for the labor and parts required in the immediate future.
Description of Work: We needed an inspection to determine what work would be required to repair the existing foundation issues.

Dave himself came over to evaluate and possibly estimate the cost of addressing the problems we faced with our foundation under this older home we bought a year ago. He was professional, knowledgeable, very thorough and straight forward about what he thought we should do. In the end, he said if it were his house, he would have the front door reframed and leave the foundation alone! He could have tried to sell me on a lot of work that would mean thousands of dollars to his company, but showed great honesty and integrity by telling me the truth. He was GREAT! He is a former builder and knows of what he speaks!! Call him!!

Thanks to the excellent work our foundation is holding. We had all cracks repaired and painted. To date, nothing seems to be shifting unlike what happened with the prior company. We did retain a attorney and sued the first company in small claims court and won. I would never use a foundation company that could not recommend a engineer who would first evaluate the problem.
Description of Work: All American had to re-do the piers the prior foundation repair company called repair. In fact, it was a hoax. We found All American had a engineer who explained the damage to our foundation by nature as well as by the prior foundation repair company.

Re-doing Foundation Repair We re-do foundation repair done by my competitors almost every week. We have redone foundation repair for this company before, they have been in business for over 20yrs. I called in an engineer on this project because it looked like the customer was going after the foundation company. The engineer agreed with what I had already recommended. I have worked with him for 18 years and we have done thousands of foundation repair jobs together. I did commercial steel erection from coast to coast of the United States for 28 years before I started foundation repair. The company that installed the piers was given every opportunity to reinstall the failing piers under their Life Time Warranty. The piers they installed 3 years ago and months before were only installed about 4 feet deep. All the new piers and old piers that had to be reinstalled went about 15 feet deep. I ask every customer to please go to our website and see our video showing my background in construction for 48 years. www.ProtectYourDream.com My competitors will not tell you what they were doing before they stated repairing foundation for home owners. If you want to have your foundation repairs done right the first time call us. I was at a customer home two weeks ago, they had an engineer report that they paid $600.00 for. It was almost worthless and was incorrect. We did not use the engineers repair plan. I am sorry this customer had to re-do previous foundation repair. Every time I am at a customer's house and they tell me they have never had foundation repair before it is music to my ears. No one has a budget set aside for the repairs the first time or the second or the third. I had a customer last year repair 8 times and it was worse that before the first time and I had to tell the customer I could not do a very good job because after about the third time you run out of room under the foundation to install new piers. Thank You Dave

I didn?t hire them after having other companies come in and ensure the ?ZERO? was placed incorrectly and that only 20 piers were needed. My cost went from 40,000.00 to 13,500.00 and the piers are way superior to the ones All American offer.
Description of Work: Provider and Engineer gave merecommendations for each other. All American came in and placed the "ZERO" of my foundation on an upheaval in my kitchen causing the entire house to seem 2 inches out of level. This owner wanted to place 40 piers under my foundation cause my home to resemble a war zone and make my foundation into swiss cheese.

I was asked to give a bid based on Devtek Engineering recommendations you had hired before we ever met. It does not matter where you set your zero because the zip level gives everyone plus and minus readings. I did give bids for recommend piers and with optional piers by Devtek the top engineer in Dallas Ft. Worth. The bid for the recommended piers was $24,454.00, with all the optional piers $29,214.00 not $45,000.00. I do not know where the $45,000.00 came from. The engineer and foundation companies are supposed to give you a repair plan that would make the home sellable. This home has problems all over with doors off level, walls leaning, counters out of level, cabinets out of level, vanities out of level, trim gapped, brick cracks, cracks in mortar, soil sloped incorrectly, floors out of level, poor drainage, plaster cracks. I was not asked to give a bid for a band aid repair so I did not. The highest bid I gave was $29,214.00 this is less than 5% of the value of the home. If you sell the home and it is not level the new home owner can sue you for the cost of repairs to get the home level. In worse case can make to take the home back. I would be glad to come back and show you that the home is not level and is still at risk as I have stated above. You found companies that would put less piers on your home so they could be the low bidder only increases the repair cost in the future to level the foundation so it would be sellable. All the work that was done now will probably have to be redone. I redo other companies work all the time I just did two jobs that where over $14,000.00 each and the foundation company is still in business giving worthless Life Time Warranties. Just go watch my video.

I had an appointment set for an evaluation and the day before the appt, I got a voicemail from a woman that it would have to be pushed out to a later time or day. I called back the same evening to cancel (because the times given wouldn't work for me and I wasn't sure when I would have time to reschedule) so when she found out I was cancelling rather than rescheduling, she said okay and just hung up on me, without so much as a goodbye. There was no "thank you for calling me back", no apologies for not making the original appt time. Nothing! Very rude and certainly not professional. There are too many other companies out there to be treating potential customers like this.

We are not open 24 hours a day. If you call back after hours you get our answering service. They can not make appointments. If you need to reschedule all you have to do is call back during regular business hours. The answering service is not perfect but I prefer it over an answering machine. We try to call customers in advance if we are not going to be on time because we know your time is also as valuable as the $500.00 free estimate we are giving you. The reason we asked for a second phone number is (which you did not give) in case we are going to be late or we need to adjust the time.

I scheduled an appointment to get an estimate. David came out and was very helpful and I felt like they would provide great service. He said at that time that they would need to do an inspection under the house to be able to give me an estimate, and that they would call. After several weeks I called on the weekend and I didn't get an answer so I decided to send an email instead of leaving a voicemail. I didn't get a response after a few days so I called during business hours. I spoke to someone and explained my situation and they said they would check with David and cal back. I never heard anything. My foundation issues were minor and I can speculate as to why I didn't get a response, but it was a little disappointing as I felt like they would have done an excellent job.

Dave was great - he explained everything he was doing and why he was doing it and also took time to explain how a pier and beam foundation may experience issues in drought conditions (as opposed to a slab foundation). I won't give away his "secret sauce" but he also gave us some very good DIY solutions to preventing foundation issues. We didn't end up having any problems but if we did, I would have used him.
Description of Work: Dave did a full walk-around of our exterior foundation and interior of the home, taking measurements and ensuring doorways, etc. were level and that dirt that had pulled back from the foundation was not a sign of foundation issues.

It went incredibly well. Shortly after Dave (the owner) measured and checked all the areas of the house, he provided me with a full, detailed recommendation and cost - including options. After reading all the reviews and checking with another company, I decided to go with All American Foundation. As soon as I named a day, the team was ready. Frank was the foreman and did an excellent job of communicating status. Every morning, they were exactly on-time. As we walked around the house the first time and identified any flowers and shrubs that I wanted to save, the team went to work. Since I work from home, we arranged for the inside jackhammering to start on day two - giving me time to prepare to go into the office. The work ethic of the team was amazing. They knew exactly what they were doing and finished in an impressively short period of time. When working in my house and garage, they separated the work area from the rest of the house with sheets of plastic - minimizing the dust. They even sealed around the doors so dust didn't get into the pantry, etc. Afterwards, they cleaned up and returned items to their original location. I highly recommend this company and would hire them again in a heartbeat - but since I have a double-lifetime warranty, it is unlikely.

I asked them specifcally for an engineering report and to pull a permit with the city. They were slow and continue to be slopw to respond to questions. When they need something from me, they have been very responsive but when I had questions from them, it takes days to ge a response and the repsonse has not aanswered all my questions. The work itself seems good. The lack of follow-up is not good.

This customer has not been asking for a contract for a week. I just met him a week ago and he had just lost another sale on his home due to foundation problems. He needed a number of things done to his pier and beam foundation so it would pass inspection. I told him since it did not need any new piers installed I would not add permit and engineering unless he wanted them added $120.00 for permit and $350.00 for engineering. This was a saving of $470.00. Most companies do not do small jobs below $4,000 because they are not as profitable. We do not have a minimum and this is my second complaint at the BBB for doing some one a favor and doing a small job. I fast tracked this small job so he would not lose another sale. I met the customer on Wednesday and we completed this job the next day. The night before he elected after 8:00pm to add engineering and permit. I fast tracked the engineering by pulling some strings and was able to get engineering by 9:00am the next day when we did the job. The contract he signed had the $470.00 added to the price. He could have made himself a copy at his home when he signed our copy. He had made me a copy of some paper work the day before. The email with the contract and what it would cost was all in the email the day before. If you have a contract and email detail cost and what would be performed that is a legal contract and can be use in a court of law. I have been a contractor for 46 years, if it is in the contract then that what you get. Jobs are normally done within 30 days of signing. Included in most contracts are post plumbing test, engineering and a permit. The engineering, plumber and permit are all independent from All American. They are not on the same time table. Projects are made up of many phases. Jobs are all a little different but this is what was involved in this job: Signing the contract. This was done the morning of the job. I did not get the back off contract until 10 days later. My email before we started asked for both to be returned signed. The foundation repair was completed the same day he signed the contract. We received the engineering the same day. The permit was taken care of the following week. The final engineering was taken care of July 27 less than two week after work. Plumbing test done July 30 two weeks after work. In the world of business it take time to have multiple parts to a project completed. Most customers understand this and do not less than a week after the job has been completed start all over the internet throwing a company under the bus that did a good job and in the customers own word per his email the day of the job: "Thanks for the great work by Frank and team. I appreciate the speedy service." Customer The day the customer was filling complaints Amanda from our office sent him an email stating we were on it and everything would be taken care of. Amanda that been here for 12 years. My last two complaints at the BBB are for doing small jobs that are not profitable. I just can't help not wanting to help customers that need some kind of home repair. Dave Hall

He was time and presented himself professionally but as far as price, he is over priced and he did not give me a full repair list. I would have been very disappointed if he did the job.
Description of Work: They gave me a quote.

Response from ALL AMERICAN FOUNDATION REPAIR & DRAINAGE, LLC
The wife was not present when I did the bid. The back of the home had a extra large fireplace and was causing most of the problem. When I called back later to see if we could be of service I was told that we missed all the damage in the front bedroom. I will explain again for everyone and as I showed the home owner when I was there. The front bedroom is the highest part of the foundation in the entire home. I also showed that the front wall of the homes was heaving and leaning in toward the back of the home. This room was one inch higher than the rest of the house. Because it was lifting it was causing damage and also lifting off the interior wall. The lifting can be caused from poor drainage, plumbing leak or being pulled by the back of the home due to sinking. This front room did not need piers and if they were installed the contactor let you decide how to fix your home. I do not let home owner tell me how to fix the foundation. I have built up to 9 story buildings before. The entire roof is one piece and can be pulled from the back sinking. Installing piers here is a waste of dollars and is steeling money from the customer. Piers are for holding or lifting not pushing the foundation down. The fireplace was causing the back to sink and causing the kitchen counters to be out of level to the back of the home. My bid address the back of the home and I did recommend three interior piers that cost more than exterior piers. I also used enough piers that it would have stayed fixed. Just last week I had a customer give me a engineering report that had four piers on the highest part of the home again I hope the home owner can get their money back. I see jobs done wrong all the time. I am the one with 46 years construction experience.

We had this company come and do some work on our foundation in 2006. We recently noticed new cracks and were concerned about them. Dave, the owner, came out and measured all the rooms involved and compared the measurements to their previous visit. He told us that we did not need further work at this time. We really appreciate his honesty and integrity. We would highly recommend this company to anyone who needs foundation work done.
Description of Work: measured all the rooms involved and checked with the measurements from the last visit
