Groundworks CFI welcomed at door by customer

History

Spouses Bob and Vicki Genord started Foundation Systems of Michigan out of their home after noticing a gap in services in the area. They focused on educating the customer about the issues with their home and the repair methods. In 2020, FSM partnered with Groundworks, the nation’s leading and fastest-growing foundation and water management solutions company and immediately expanded its service coverage. FSM has an A+ rating with the BBB and was honored by the Livonia-Westland Chamber as Outstanding Business of the Year in 2024. Today, FSM continues to serve Michigan homeowners under the Groundworks name.

The guys did a great job and busted it out in 2 days. I no longer have to worry about a wet, unstable laundry room. They were friendly, communicated effectively, and left things tidy both days. I definitely recommend them, and look forward to working with them on future projects. Shout out to Bryant and his crew, Gabe, Ethan, and Jarred. You guys rock! I've attached a before and after photo.
