From the inspection, explanation and quote from Frank to the day and a half of foundation work by Carlos, Gustavo and Julio, AFS provided top notch work with outstanding customer service. The crew were so professional answering questions and listening about challenge with the septic line running near the piers. They hand dug 4 piers to be extra careful to not damage the septic line. Clean up was neat and tidy and the retaining wall and house are now stabilized which will make resale in years to come much easier with lifetime warrantee! Thanks guys!!

Hi! This is Mona from Taylorsville and I would like to tell you about my experience with AFS Foundation repair and waterproofing. I would like to say my meeting with Alex Parker-a specialist with AFS-, was a great experience. I thought I might be having some foundation problems with my home. I googled and found AFS. I made a call and spoke with Katrina. She was quite pleasant to speak with, very mannerly and really understanding. She asked a few questions and immediately wanted to set an appointment the very next day. Shortly after I hung up the phone, Alex Parker gave me a call. He was the gentleman that was coming to do my inspection. I really was anxious on how the meeting and inspection would go…afraid I would be talked into something very expensive, mainly because I didn't know if I had issues or not. Needless to say, Alex was very thorough in his inspection. (almost 2 hours)…He came back in the house wanting to show me the pics he had taken and he was very quick to set my fears at rest….nothing majorly wrong. I immediately thanked MY JESUS for answered prayer. I also let him know I had been praying so hard that there would not be an expensive situation that I could not afford. I learned that Alex also led his life pleasing the Lord as well as his customers. I would recommend Alex Parker anytime to someone looking for foundation, concrete repair or waterproofing. A very nice and caring young man.

Allan Proctor did an inspection of my crawl spaces today. He advised of some improvements that have been made to the encapsulation process. My encapsulation from 6 year's ago could use some updates. The one from 2 years ago is perfect. He explained the industry’s standards have changed, and explained in detail the upgrades that are recommended. Very thorough. Appreciate all the time he spent answering all my questions. Definitely an asset to AFS.

I contacted AFS to assess my home after encountering water damage in multiple areas. Devin Kimbrough was assigned to me. Devin was professional from start to finish, communicated well, and thoroughly educated me on the issues that were occurring at my home. He identified where water was entering the home, identified various cracks and, explained how they likely occurred. Devin is an SME in what he does and I would highly recommend. Thanks for everything, Devin!

Foundation Experts in Birmingham

Located in the central part of the state, Birmingham and surrounding areas including Selma, Talladega, and Tuscaloosa, has a humid subtropical climate with abundant rain throughout the year. This can lead to high humidity in your crawl space or basement flooding.

Foundation issues including settlement and bowing walls also are common in homes throughout the area. Birmingham’s soil is mainly expansive clay, which absorbs water quickly and becomes heavy when saturated by all the area’s rain. This often results in hydrostatic pressure against your foundation walls, which oftentimes may not be noticed until it’s too late and problem signs being to show themselves throughout your house.

Birmingham’s clay soil also negatively impacts any concrete slabs or other structures on your property. Concrete areas like sidewalks and driveways crack and settle due to soil expansion and shrinkage, which is all too common in the area. Birmingham is located in Dixie Alley, a region famous for its high frequency of tornadoes. The fierce winds caused by tornadoes is one of the most disruptive forces wreaking havoc on your yard and leading to soil erosion.

If all or some of these issues sound familiar, you’re not alone. Many other homeowners just like you have experienced these problems, and we at AFS are here to help with your foundation repair, basement waterproofing, crawl space repair, and concrete lifting needs.
