Been having some foundation issues and decided to give these folks a call. Kevin Macdonald (Certified Field Inspector) came over and did a very thorough inspection of our foundation & crawl space. He measured moisture levels in the walls and floors and came up with several solutions we could choose from. He did a great job explaining areas that needed addressing and how FRS would go about fixing them. He was at our house for several hours and took a lot of pictures of the areas that need to be fixed. He was on time and courteous. Highly recommend Foundation Recovery Systems. FCN

Grant Taylor did a great job! He called and told me when her would be there and actually showed up on time!(which NEVER happens) then he gave me a quote that was honest and explained it so I knew the reasons why the work needed done. He was patient with me and all my questions and didn’t make me feel bad about asking. Long story short he was awesome and it was a great experience for me mostly due to him!

Cory and Dakota did a fabulous job! After they arrived, we walked around the house, and they explained what they would be doing. They worked quickly and efficiently. When it came time to lift the house, they did it in small increments and let us check to make sure the windows closed properly and the existing drywall cracks did not change in size. They were patient and answered all our questions. Many thanks for all your work and help!!!

Home Repair Specialists in Springfield

Homeowners in Springfield, Illinois, understand the challenges that variable weather and soil conditions can pose on their home’s foundation and basement. When warning signs appear, it’s best to consult the experts at Foundation Repair Specialists. 

Situated in Central Illinois, Springfield experiences humid summers, cold winters, and occasional heavy rainfall, which can be taxing on your home. Without proper waterproofing or adequate support, your basement or crawl space may be at risk of mold growth and wood rot, jeopardizing your home’s structural integrity. Damp, moldy walls in your basement, wet carpets, and a persistent musty odor emanating from your home’s lower structure are all indications of moisture and water control problems. Combined with the region’s soil type, these climate factors can cause serious damage to your home. 

Springfield is known for its silty clay loam soils, such as the Drummer series. These soil types tend to hold water, which can create issues for homeowners during periods of heavy rainfall. As the soil expands and contracts due to changing moisture levels, it can cause cracks in your home’s foundation, concrete slab driveway, and sidewalks. You may also observe bowing in your walls, or even cracks and gaps in your walls.  

To protect your home from these issues, trust the professionals at Foundation Repair Specialists to provide the necessary solutions and support.
