I had to have repair on my foundation and I was nervous about who to choose for my company, since there is so many to choose from. I chose foundation recovery and I am so pleased that I did. I want to mention these men’s names and thank them again for their kindness, professionalism, and willingness to answer any questions and let me see how they even work and explain it. From the very beginning of paperwork with Peter Fisher And all the crew Joseph Woodien,Chance Spratly, and Andre Stewart I was only shown, kindness, and professionalism, I saw these men work very hard repairing my home and I want to thank them very much. I recommend them very highly.

Kevin Macdonald did a great job explaining what needs to be done to fix my flooring issue. He was extremely professional and prompt. We were completely clueless on how to fix our home and Kevin showed us exactly what was wrong and how to fix it. I would recommend him to everyone that is looking to fix their foundation.

Been having some foundation issues and decided to give these folks a call. Kevin Macdonald (Certified Field Inspector) came over and did a very thorough inspection of our foundation & crawl space. He measured moisture levels in the walls and floors and came up with several solutions we could choose from. He did a great job explaining areas that needed addressing and how FRS would go about fixing them. He was at our house for several hours and took a lot of pictures of the areas that need to be fixed. He was on time and courteous. Highly recommend Foundation Recovery Systems. FCN

Kevin Macdonald is very knowledgeable with crawlspace/foundations. My husband went into the crawlspace with Kevin as Kevin invited him to join. We're excited for our encapsulation of the crawlspace and for our garage concrete slab. Thanks Kevin and Foundation Recovery Systems! Looking good in those suits!

More than anything I want to highly commend and acknowledge Marc McGuire for his exemplary service with Foundation Recovery Systems Springfield. He has done my annual service maintenance in my home’s encapsulated crawlspace for the past few years and I just want to tell you again that he is the best!! I cannot even imagine anyone else being as professional, reliable, honest, sincere, dependable, and trustworthy than Marc. He’s courteous, observant and such a delight to talk with, and he addresses and goes over everything. Don’t let him get away. That man needs a bonus or something. Please make sure he knows how much he is appreciated! Thank you Marc!! Chris Naylor

Michael Macdonald did a great job inspecting, mapping, photographing, and explaining what was going wrong and work needing to be done to correct the problem with my main beam. He was able to measure to determine if they would be able to do the work from the crawlspace or would have to go through a floor. Fortunately, they have enough access in the crawlspace. We were both very happy about that. He was personable, liked dogs, and had a good sense of humor. His explanations regarding warranties and rechecking alleviated my concerns going forward.

Home Repair Specialists in Springfield

Homeowners in Springfield, Illinois, understand the challenges that variable weather and soil conditions can pose on their home’s foundation and basement. When warning signs appear, it’s best to consult the experts at Foundation Repair Specialists. 

Situated in Central Illinois, Springfield experiences humid summers, cold winters, and occasional heavy rainfall, which can be taxing on your home. Without proper waterproofing or adequate support, your basement or crawl space may be at risk of mold growth and wood rot, jeopardizing your home’s structural integrity. Damp, moldy walls in your basement, wet carpets, and a persistent musty odor emanating from your home’s lower structure are all indications of moisture and water control problems. Combined with the region’s soil type, these climate factors can cause serious damage to your home. 

Springfield is known for its silty clay loam soils, such as the Drummer series. These soil types tend to hold water, which can create issues for homeowners during periods of heavy rainfall. As the soil expands and contracts due to changing moisture levels, it can cause cracks in your home’s foundation, concrete slab driveway, and sidewalks. You may also observe bowing in your walls, or even cracks and gaps in your walls.  

To protect your home from these issues, trust the professionals at Foundation Repair Specialists to provide the necessary solutions and support.
