I just want to give a huge shot out to Matthew Ridley and Shawn Lowe! The first day they started work it was raining, and they got to see first hand the mess we have been dealing with😞. They worked so hard. I actually felt bad🥺. They explained everything to me and they even cleaned up the mess when they were done. I can’t say enough great things about these 2. I highly recommend them and this company. Thank you guys for all you do😊

From start to finish, a great experience. Very thorough in their inspection. Not at all pushy in recommendations. Here when they said they would be & did the work exactly as promised. Were they the cheapest? No. Did they exceed our expectations? Yes. Pay a little more & have it done right first time around. You won’t disappointed.

I had AFS come out to give us a free estimate. Bobby came out to our place. He was so kind, respectful and extremely informative. I honestly had the best experience. He took great pictures to show us the problems and explained them in a way that I could understand. I will be recommending AFS and specifically Bobby to anyone else dealing with foundation issues! Thankyou!

We recently had AFS come out and inspect for a possible foundation issue. Caleb arrived as scheduled and explained what he was going to do. Took about 1.5 hours to complete and he gave us the good news that we didnt actually have a foundation issue. It was a problem with the stucco finish. Rather than try to push a non existent problem he said it would be ethically wrong for him to do that. Character and trust in AFS was gained that day and will be quick to advise others to use the company if they need assistance. Thanks Caleb again for your time.

I recently had AFS Foundation Company come out to evaluate work done at my home, and I want to express how grateful I am for the experience. Andy Friar and Chris Wanzer were absolutely outstanding. From the moment they arrived, they were professional, respectful, and very knowledgeable. They took the time to carefully inspect everything, explained each detail in a way I could understand, and made sure I felt confident about what was going on with my home. They walked me through what had been done, what still needed attention, and reassured me that everything would be taken care of properly. Their communication was clear, honest, and very reassuring. It’s not often you meet people who take this much pride in their work, and it really showed. I truly appreciate their time, effort, and professionalism. Andy and Chris have set a high standard for the company. I hope if I ever need anything else, Andy or Chris are the ones who come to my home. Thank you, Andy and Chris, and thank you to AFS Foundation Company.

AFS provided exceptional service. Ben S. came and gave us a quote and told us exactly what we needed done. He was a true professional. Then came the time for AFS to make good on their promises and Jackson, Micah, and Mikey did not disappoint. They communicated before, during, and after the job. They walked us through everything they were going to do and then showed us at the end that it was done. They were fantastic to deal with and so was AFS as a company. Thank you for helping us get our crawl space and foundation in order. We wouldn’t hesitate to use you again in the future.

We originally contacted AFS for some uneven flooring. They suggested installing floor supports in some key locations and warned us that later we may have the need for girder beam support. That day arrived when AFS showed up for a routine inspection of the original support piers. Todd, our sales representative, was thorough with his explanation and made the options we had clear. The install day, Micah and Kayden communicated their arrival time and worked extremely hard all day. The job was 2 days and they again let us know they were coming early the next morning. Again, they worked very hard all day long and into the early evening. I can't say enough about their work ethic. It was refreshing to witness. They got all the steel placed on the girder beams and extra support piers in place. Great experience and we would highly recommend them if you are in need of any type of foundation issues.

I have an approximately 20 year old home that sits on a full basement. Over the years I noticed a crack developing on one wall. So I called AFS to come have a look and give me an estimate on repairs. Inspector / salesman Steve McGahon called and scheduled an appointment within 24hrs. On our scheduled appointment he was on time, very professional and extremely knowledgeable. Once the contract was signed and deposit was paid we set an installation date. Luckily for me they had a couple of projects moved around and got to me a few days early. Installation crew (CJ and Kieth) called to verify appointment and of course were right on time. As The installation crew prepared the worksite CJ identified an unforeseen problem with the intended plan of action. As I am no engineer by any stretch of the imagination, CJ Explained why it would need to be done a different way. She took her time to explain and show me alternative options. CJ is friendly, knowledgeable and very professional; you can tell she actually cares about customer experiences. I cannot say enough about CJ and Keith as installers. CJ and Keith kept a clean and safe work environment And worked in a very methodic rhythm. I cannot say enough about the quality of craftsmanship that CJ and Keith exude. Definitely 10 out of 10 would recommend AFS for any of your foundation needs.

Foundation Expertise in Knoxville

Tennessee is ranked as the fifth state in the U.S. with the most annual precipitation. With this much rain, there’s no doubt that eastern Tennessee homeowners in areas like Knoxville, Athens, Gatlinburg, and Oak Ridge are struggling with foundation and water management issues. Summer months can be dry and hot, but most of the year is wet and often humid. Excessive humidity leads to mold growth, which can weaken both the concrete in the basement as well as the wooden joists and supports in a crawl space. It also attracts pests to your home, so not only will you be dealing with a deteriorating structure, but also an infestation.

Eastern Tennessee areas like Knoxville have primarily clay soil. Because clay soil is good at retaining water, the soil surrounding your foundation is almost always saturated with water. Hydrostatic pressure puts a heavy weight on your foundation walls and causes them to crack, bow inward, and allow water to leak inside. The constant pressure and shrink-swell cycles also affect the soil under concrete structures like patios, pool decks, sidewalks, and driveways.

These problems may seem all too familiar, as they are common in many Knoxville homes. But the expert team of professionals at AFS can help you permanently address your foundation, basement, crawl space, and concrete issues. Our solutions are fully customizable to best suit your home’s unique repair needs.
