AFF Honesty Foundation

They worked quickly, replaced bushes and plantings they had removed, and cleaned up the jobsite. I am very happy with their work.

I was amazed at how quickly they dug the holes around the foundation. They finished the job in two days and did a great job of cleaning up.

They did a good job for us and they were amicable. I have no complains. He was pretty quick to come. I would recommend them. Very nice. Very professional. Very courteous.

I give this company a 5- Star rating - Owner was here throughout the project - completed in 1 day (17 piers) & crew was absolutely awesome!!! I highly recommend this Company!!!

I callled Joe on a reference from a friend. We scheduled two assessments and quotes back to back. The first was one of the larger firms who gave an honest assessment to some remediation plumbing work, wait, the decide if we needed to add piers to level the foundation. I was totally buying this pitch because it was conservative, but it included a $375 assessment of the plumbing so that I could call my insurance company to tell them that I a had "verified" leak in the plumbing under the foundation. When I called the insurance company, I found out that I didn't need to have a first inspection on it. They would inspect it anyway. I feel that he was setting me up, knowing that there is a plumbing issue, to pay them for the plumbing repairs, then wait six months. After this time is when the piers come in "if needed" at a cost of $14,000. Joe's assessment was to level the house first, then address plumbing issues. After he explained it, it made much more sense to move the house first, then redo the plumbing instead not visa versa. Joe's quote to do the piers was less than have the cost of the larger firm for the whole project with a recommendation to do only part now and if necessary, the other part later. This second option was less than 1/3 of the price for the original. Joe took the time to explain the process and why thing needed and didn't need to be done. We have a couple of things to sort out before we pull the trigger on starting this, but I assure you that that call will be to Joe.

I highly recommend Joe Winters and his crew of Honesty foundation. Joe was doing work at my daughter's house and I also had Joe give me a quote at my house that I thought had foundations problems. Once he looked at the house inside and out he told me that I didn't have any issues. It was only normal settling. This proves that he truly is honest. The crew was also professional, knowledgeable and helpful when I had questions. They cleaned up nicely and left the property the way that they found it. The original quote was $6,700.00 with several inside and outside piers since the house was imploding. We also knew that unless there was an I beam in the living room the work in that section couldn't be guaranteed. Once the work was started there was an I beam where it needed to be so the scope of the project changed. To do the job correctly additional interior piers were needed. We agreed to do what ever it took to do the job correctly the first time. Since the final cost was several thousand more than the original quote Joe reduced the price so that it wasn't much more than the original quote even though 50% more work was done. I will definitely use Joe in the future if i have foundation issues.

These guys are experts, and they don't quit till the job is done right. At some point in the construction they discovered that at the actual corner in question, the foundation was and had been more or less floating in the dirt. They had to improvise in a major way, including fabricating an I-beam that they installed below ground to join together other support elements. Joe Winter, the owner, came to investigate when they realized they had an unexpected and serious problem to deal with. I was grateful for their determination to fix it, and I offered to let him increase the bid price to compensate for the significant extra time, labor, and materials, which I considered only fair. Joe wouldn't consider asking for or taking more money. He said that getting the job done right was his only concern, and his crew did that. I can't praise this company highly enough.

Joe saw no need to waste money repairing what is minor concrete cracking and not causing any foundation problems. Joe was very professional, punctual, communicative and informative. i will recommend using Honesty Foundation to my friends.

Joe and his crew were both quick and professional. They were even able to work around a problem (not caused by them) and did so without complaint. Completed the entire task in one day which also included having to jackhammer through a patio and patching it afterwards. Joe was honest in his quote and gave me the option of the minimum that needed to be done which others did not provide for me before.

We were getting cracks in the brick walls of our house and our foundation was shifting. They came out and were wonderful. They gave us a good price and didn’t do more than they needed to do. Already, we have seen a big improvement. He was really nice. He brought a big crew over. He answers his phone himself and deals with all of his customers himself. We were very happy in every respect with his service.

Honesty Foundation did not do any work for me other than coming by to do an estimate. After the inspection Joe Winter told me that I did not need to level my slab but there were other problems with my floors on the inside of the house. Having delt with contractors before, I felt I needed to write a good review when you have someone that is honest with you and not try to sell you something you don't need. Their name says it all, HONESTY FOUNDATION.

Joe Winter met with me and gave me an estimate. He was prompt and his crew was very professional. The work was done in one day and the clean up was thorough. I would recommend Joe to everyone.

Complete experience was wonderful! i contacted Honesty based on a recommendation from a structural enginner I hired off Angies List to assist with assessing the degree of foundation repair required. I called Honesty, left a message that was quickly returned by Joe Winter (owner). We discussed my foundation requirements and traded the foundation assessment from the structural engineer. From the assesment Honesty made a bid that was significantly lower than the bid I received from the cable technology guys (70% lower). I discussed with Joe my need to get work done ASAP as I was attempting to get the house on the market quickly. As it turned out there was a cancellation in their schedule that allowed work to be completed much sooner (I'm sure there were others that could have been slotted in the cancellation slot but believe Honesty gave me first shot as they knew I needed it done soon). Foundation work was done in one day including clean-up. Crew did a great job of restoring the beds and yard, Joe called me to discuss their work and what to expect next. Honesty at no cost fixed a leaky water main connecting to the house and repaired a pane of glass that was cracked in the leveling process. The crew was also very careful not to damage the sprinkler system lines that ran the perimeter of the house. Honesty invoiced me and I was able to pay after a few weeks that gave me time to verify that there were no residual effects from the work and that the sprinkler system was still functional. I would definately recommend Honesty to anyone looking for expert foundation repair, easy to work with ownership. very reasonalble rates, and quality project execution. Thanks Joe and Jody!!

Owner Joe Winter was prompt in coming to our home & giving us an estimate. Our home was sinking 3" in the front. His estimate was not the cheapest nor the highest. The day of the repairs he & his crew of 6 men showed up promptly. Immediately went to work digging the holes. Each time I went out to observe the progress they were willing to answer any question I had. They completed the job in one day. They returned the landscape to its original order. I was impressed with their efficiency and proffesionalism. Would highly recommed Honesty Foundation!

I am ashamed that I have waited so long to do this review. I was extremely impressed with Honesty Foundation. I was referred to them by a neighbor. I was afraid that I would not be able to afford to have the work done, but the price was within my budge and I feel that I got a bargain. I know nothing about things like this but I was comfortable and confident after meeting Joe Winter. I was totally amazed by the procedure and the amount of work that his team performed in the July heat. They not only leveled the slab, but when they left, there was no evidence they had been here. Eveything was cleaned up and neat. I have told many peple about the job they did and I highly recommend them. The word HONESTY in the company name has meaning. The foundation of the company is honesty and integrity - rare qualities these days.

They did an excellent job with the work. The team was not as punctual as I would have liked but that was not the main problem. The main problem is that we are now almost 2 months out and still have not been able to get a receipt from them. Repeated attempts to contact them have not resulted in contact. I realize they are probably very busy as they are an excellent service but paperwork needs to be attended to as well. Otherwise I would completely recommend them. UPDATE: It appears there was an issue with emails being filtered between them and us. As soon as the initial review was posted they contacted us immediately and sent the invoice over post-haste. Seeing the incredibly quick response it would seem that it just a series of missed connections or unhappy occurrences in communication. As stated before- the work was perfect so with this response I have upgraded them to an "A" in repsonsiveness. I completely recommend this provider for any foundation work that you need!

Met me and answered all of my questions. Put my mind to ease. Arrived promptly and provided me with his honest opinion. Very nice and very professional.

It was one day for installation and a few hours the next morning to clean and replant the flowers in my front bed. I had a contract to sell my house and wanted the piers done during the option period prior to the inspection. Joe Winter worked with my tight schedule so the buyers were able go through the home with their inspector after the foundation work was complete. My downstairs is hardwood and tile flooring and there was no damage. I used the Angie's List coupon and saved 5%.

I noticed a crack in the sheetrock around a window in one of the rooms in my house. I called AFF Honesty Foundation after researching Angie's List. Every review for this provider was positive. I scheduled an appointment with Joe Winter who is the owner. He came out and checked my house and gave me his evaluation of the situation. He did not try to sell me services I did not need and told me what to do to minimize the possibility of a cracked foundation. He was professional and did not charge me for coming out to do the estimate. He told me what would need to be done if, in the future, I needed foundation repair. He explained the process and told me what the approximate cost would be if it came to that. I was very pleased and would recommend this company to anyone needing foundation repair estimates. I will definitely call him back to do the work if it gets to that point.

There are no details! Joe is as his name says "Honest". No hick-ups. No I need to go out for this or whatever. Joe delivered exactlywhat he said he was going to and on time. On top of it all he is one of the most deCent down to earth men I have met!

We scheduled a date for him to be there and he arrived at my house early in the morning with his crew. He explained what they were going to be doing and started work right away. The crew was nice and professional as well and they finished faster than I expected. They put everything back in it's place and repaired any holes that had to be made in my patio. I have a big dog in my backyard that likes to dig random holes, and they used some of the extra dirt to fill in those holes as well. I hated the fact that I had to get foundation repair, but going through Honesty Foundation made it painless.

We were so impressed that he spent so much time with us answering all our questions and explaining how he came to that conclusion. We are going to have some concrete work done in the future and although we did not need foundation work as we had thought, he will be the first one we call about the other concrete work. We trust him and we trust Angie's List.

My home suffered cracks and other problems during the 2011 drought. Since I had heard of bad experiences with foundation contractors, I waited for over a year to call for help. Joe Winter was the first one to promptly answer his phone and promise to come out for a free estimate. He arrived promptly when promised and took all his measurements and assessment and gave us an honest explanation of what we needed and an estimate of cost. Since I have a screened in porch on the back of my house, I was concerned about how they could do the work and not mess-up my porch. Joe assured me that he would do everything possible to preserve the porch. On the day the work was scheduled, Joe and his team arrived at the time promised and carried-out the foundation repair as promised and also kept the porch in perfect condition. I can not say enough good things about Joe and his team.

The owner met me at the property, gave me a quote, then repaired the defect.

Joe was very punctual, visited the site to evaluate the area that needed attention and was on time and professional completing the job. He worked with our schedule to complete the job after hours to avoid interruption of service to our members. I was very pleased with the job done.
