A-1 Guaranteed Foundation Repair

Excellent. A-1 is not out to just get the work, they approached our home in a holistic manner and provided recommendations for watering to help keep the foundation for stable. Their recommendations are working great.

Very well... we just wanted advice for our new home/

They were upfront, honest, and provided real-time feedback. I was impressed with their professionalism and honesty.

I have nothing but great things to say about this company. We had a few areas of concern as we didn't have an inspection done on our house when we moved in a year ago. Kevin came and did a thorough evaluation, explaining what he was doing and why throughout the inspection. He was very honest - we don't have any major issues now but have some issues with our watering plan that need fixed (our sprinkler system hasn't been optimized in years). He recommended adding a drip line around the house and a few soaker hoses for the larger trees. He was patient and spent a lot of time explaining why things can go wrong with foundations and how to prevent those things from happening. I HIGHLY recommend this company. We will definitely refer them to our family and friends.

It was good because they did a good inspection.

The service went well. I received a quote and measurements from them. One technician was out for the service. He was nice, professional and thorough. I am waiting on a second opinion from another company before having the work done. I had no problem scheduling the deal and he arrived on time. I had a really good experience with the company.

extremely professional, very experienced, cleaned up work area perfectly, on time

did not receive anything from the provider so it cost me 50.00 for nothing.........THANKS ANGIES LIST

They did well. They did a good job and I was very happy. I haven't had any problem and everything's fine.

Kevin was just outstanding. He showed up on-time (even a bit early I believe). He was extremely friendly and professional. Even though we were just using a relatively inexpensive Angie's List coupon, he did a thorough inspection of our foundation, walking all around the outside of the house (in quite inclement weather I would add) and also throughout the interior of the house as well to identify any potential problem areas. He fully explained where there were or were not issues, and also gave an explanation for his diagnoses. He gave sound recommendations for things we could do to fix things, and did not try to sell us anything we didn't need. I would not hesitate to use A-1 for any foundation work in the future. First class treatment all the way.

He gave me lot of information about my foundation which had some cracks and he sounded knowledgeable. He told me that the cracks were not a significant caused for concern and he explained that the corner of the house can fall and rise. He tooled me I can have it patched. I would recommended him because he was really knowledgeable and I appreciated that.

It went alright. Their watering plan fixed our problem. The guy who came out was on-time and took about an hour to complete the work.

All was good about it. The experience was good. We were satisfied. We didn't have any additional problem. There was no additional cost.

The experience was fantastic. After obtaining their information from this web site, we contacted them directly. There was no fee for the inspection. There had been a cancellation in their schedule, so we were able to obtain an appointment for the next day. The representative was very professional, knowledgeable and personable. When explained things, he it in a manner that was very easy to understand, He arrived on the early end of the thirty minute arrival window we were given. He examined the exterior and interior of the home, took measurements and evaluated the foundation. He indicated that there were no major issues with the foundation. He suggested the use of soaker hoses or drip irrigation around the foundation to alleviate what we were experiencing and indicated that no foundation repair was needed. Very pleased.

It worked fine, but they are not quite finished. The repair is done, but they have to come back and test for water leaks. There were no unexpected issues, and it took them about 7 hours.

Honest provider - inspected foundation and measured shifting. Suggested watering schedule for maintenance to keep prevent further shifting and avoid need for actual repairs. Very honest - could have told me he needed to do repair work in order to make money off of me; rather, he honestly told me that we didn't need foundation work AND gave me advice on how to avoid ever needing work. Really appreciate his integrity!

Great! Very professional and helpful. We are new homeowners, so we were nervous, and it went very well. They did not try to add on extra services.

They were very responsive and answered all of our questions.

Everything seems fine so far with the foundation work. There was an issue with damage caused to a pipe by a pier that a plumber discovered and A1 came out and repaired.

Very impressed with the throughness, honesty, and professionalism of the employee from A-1 Guaranteed Foundation Repair.

Showed up on time and completed evaluation as expected. Emailed recommendations promptly.

Great. He showed up walked around did the inspection and then told us exactly how to combat any issues. He was great!

Informed us our foundation was not cracked, even though we couldn't close our bedroom door. Gave instructions on watering plan: when, where, and how much to water. And now, our bedroom door closes!

I had my foundation looked at for the second time this year because my neighbors had a tree that was growing very close to both of our houses and I had been told before that the tree needed to go, but my neighbors thought that it was was going to help their house from not sinking any lower. I conveyed the message to them that my foundation specialist disagrees. They still kept the tree. Along came A-1 to the rescue. Kevin Proctor arrived promptly and after a little conversation, he went to work! He pointed out the same issue about the tree telling me that since my last grading about 6 mos earlier, my garage corner had sank about 2 more inches! Thanks to the tree that was looking for water but was receiving none so it was drying out the soil. On this particular day, I was prepared to take my findings to my neighbor - again! Didn't have to this time! Kevin spoke to my neighbor at my request! He told him that unless they were going to start dumping a ton of water on that tree, it was going to keep on damaging both of our houses. Oddly enough, that tree came down a few weeks later! It made more sense coming from a professional instead of me, which was fine as long as the job was done! I'm so thankful Kevin was willing to explain to my neighbor how much damage the tree was doing instead of helping as they thought! Thanks, Kevin! Kevin then sent my measurements to me in an email along with some helpful suggestions. He suggested that I bring them back out in the Spring for another re-measurement. I really appreciate that he didn't try to push me into having foundation work so quickly!

Kevin came a year ago and made measurements throughout my house, gave his recommendation, and a price to raise the foundation and place piers in necessary places. I received bids from two other companies that were considerably higher, but decided to wait to do anything. I made a second call to A-! Guaranteed this fall (one year later). At no cost to me Kevin returned, made measurements, said the house had not had any further movement, but recommended the repair. We scheduled the repair. The engineer came some days later and confirmed Kevin's assessment. The repair went as planned. Two crews comprising a total of some 21 men arrived at 9:00 a.m. in the morning. Work commenced immediately with removal of necessary shrubbery and digging for pier placement. By shortly after noon, the house was prepared for raising and pier placement. I watched as the procedure of raising the foundation and placement of the piers took place. By 1:00 p.m. that part was finished. Root barriers were put in place to prevent any encroachment of tree roots under the foundation. Measurements were taken and the foreman explained how far the foundation had been raised and why it was taken to the level it was. After asking if I was satisfied and for my approval, the crews were given the instruction to replace the dirt around the foundation and plants that had been removed. By 3:30 p.m. the job was finished to my satisfaction and the crew left. Some days later the engineering firm returned and confirmed all the measurements of the crew. Some days later the plumbing company came to do a plumbing test. No leaks were discovered. Job completed. Only time will tell if all my plants survived (no promises were made when I signed my contract) and if everything remains in place for the long term future. I am hopeful that this will be the end of my foundation problems. I only have one remaining crack on a seam in the ceiling sheetrock of my house due probably to the weight of the fireplace nearby. All others have closed and doors are square again.
