I had my driveway raised and sealed by two reps from FSS named David and Diego. They did a fantastic job and made sure that i knew what it would look like when they were done. I am so pleased with how it turned out and happy that they were the ones doing the work.

For our foundation problem, we talked to nine foundation repair companies in the greater Houston area. Jacob Frick is a third generation foundation repair specialist. He is by far, the most knowledgeable estimator of them all. He was very accommodating with our tight schedule and went out of his way to give us the service we had requested from him. We wholeheartedly recommend Rick Dean Frick and Foundation Support Specialist (FSS) Company.

Mr. Edgar Garza came out listened to my concerns, advised me of what he would be doing to access my problem and provided me with detailed information of his findings. Professional during the entire process. If anyone had problems or need to know if you have foundation problems, call Foundation Suppory Specialist.

We had a sudden issue with the foundation, Adrian S came out and set things up for us, and the crew showed up really fast and did a magnificent job. Our crew Mike L, David L. Elyas L, Robert T, and Stafford C. could not have been better. We were facing a major structural issue with the house which could have resulted in untold damage. Thank goodness I found them, and made the call. Adrian really walked my wife through each and every part of the process which helped a great deal in her understanding of the need for the work. They explained every single step of the process as they did it, they worked with us to minimize the disruption. They showed us what they were doing, and actually found another issue which could have been a major subsidence for which we are exceptionally thankful. While any foundation issue is a panic situation they were able to really put my wife's mind at ease, they raised my daughters room over an inch, and the garage over 2 and stopped the cracking dead in its tracks. The doors now shut properly, and the job was as neat as possible, and they cleaned up very well afterwards which was nice. The moved the downspouts away from the house to perfect locations and set the pop valves well so I do not have to worry about the mower. They also were very careful and did not damage any of the tie rods on the porch which was very thoughtful. If you live in the South Texas and Cibolo area, and don't call these guys you are making a bad mistake. Yes, it is expensive, but they made the process transparent, and easy. If I could give them SIX stars I would do so. I just feel sorry for the pouring rain and humidity that they had to suffer through.

Brian did a great job explaining the process and working with me on payment options. Kaz and his team worked hard all day and got my foundation raised more than even expected. Doors are closing as they should and I am happy with the outcome. Kaz even accepted my request of patching the cracks with the cement he had used for the patio. All around great company, very honest and upfront. Will recommend to anyone needing foundation repair.

We purchased our retirement home a year ago, and knew there had been foundation repairs. However, nothing prepared us for major headache of getting the warranty honored from the other company. Thus, we decided to get 3 estimates and settled on Foundation Support Specialists. From the initial consultation from Jay Brooks to the crew of Jose N, Tyler C, and Ricky R; we are thrilled with our results. The crew was respectful of our home and the fact that we had done so much landscaping around the house. Don’t settle for the cheapest bid, but the best company.

From the first contact with this company & Kristopher (the sales rep who came to our home) to the work accomplished today (11/7/24) we have had NO problems or concerns with the competency, price, and work ethic of the crew that did our 'project'. Aaron Hudson & Zach Taylor were friendly, professional and good workmen. Before they came to the house, they kept in contact via telephone to advise us of when they would be arriving. Very diligent and they cleaned up after they finished. I heartily recommend this company for any driveway leveling needs.

If you need foundation repair this is the company to call! I would like to commend Jay and Karl for their professionalism and customer service while fixing the wrap around deck of my 20 year old home. I was late getting home and they had already consulted with my wife prior to starting work. When I got home I was greeted by Karl who gave me a quick rundown on how the work was going. Jay also showed me how they had already fixed the worst area of the deck and were stabilizing what remained. I felt I was in good hands because they were so happy in what they were doing and had such great attitudes about the work. Their enthusiasm in their job was refreshing to see. I would also like to thank Ethan for coming out for the initial inspection and explaining how the job would go. Both Ethan and Jay explained the 5 year warranty and how it works.
