Daniel and his crew did a great job with the scope of work and also with communication throughout the process. Alan who sold me the job also did a great job in explaining everything thoroughly and working with me for the scope of work that I could most directly benefit from. Happy with this crew and would do business again in the future.

The inspector, Jared, was on time for our appointment. He was courteous, professional, explained all the work that they needed to do, and gave us a price. The project foreman, Matthew, and his helper, John, came ahead of time on the day scheduled, were both extremely mannerly, courteous, and respectful. They wasted no time, worked hard, and did a really good job. I would recommend this company and this crew.

Kyle arrived on time and was very knowledgeable. After spending time and reviewing my leak situation, we determined that AFS was not the company to stop my leak. AFS deals with foundation problems which I had none at this time, but would definitely call them if I did. I appreciate the free visit and will call someone to address my leak problem.

Trevor, Brennan, James, and Jamari were the crew to do the push piers on our foundation and we couldn't be happier with their work. They were punctual, polite, finished ahead of schedule and left the place just as clean as they found it. I am thoroughly satisfied with the company as a whole. From the sight survey and evaluation all the way through completion they went above and beyond. Always communicated with me and kept me informed of expectations, changes, and arrival times. If you are considering using AFS… I couldn't recommend them enough. I am one happy customer!

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.
