Replacement, Repair or Stabilization, that is the question?
While there are some extreme cases where a foundation just can’t be fixed, we recommend repairing the foundation whenever possible.
Not only is total foundation replacement extremely disruptive and expensive, but it is also not always the answer to your foundation problems.
When it comes to your home, It is a good idea to get multiple assessments especially when it comes to deciding if you need foundation replacement. Waterproofing foundation specialists will come out, take a look at the signs you are seeing and pinpoint where the problem is.
BAM Basements and Masons of Des Moines had a client call us the other day, needing an estimate on foundation replacement. She had another company come out and provide an estimate, they stated she needed to replace the entire foundation which was going to cost them about $35,000 Dollars.
We set up an appointment with one of our waterproofing specialists to go out and take a look at what was going on. BAM came in and made a proper assessment, it ended up being a simple crack repair, the customer saved $33,500, that’s right BAM fixed it for $1500 with Lifetime Warranty!
Another Customer called terribly upset, stressed out over an estimate they received for foundation replacement for 29,000 dollars. BAM went out and assessed the situation and found the home had bowing walls and needed braces to stabilize the walls and help prevent further movement. This customer also ended up saving thousands and was relieved with results.
