Grant was very knowledgeable, timely, and professional. He showed me how FRS can transform my crawl space from a dingy, musty, moldy area to one that’s tidy, clean, and dry. He showed me how they can keep it that way for years to come by installing various drainage options, subterraneous pumps, vapor barriers & even dehumidifiers. I feel we came up with a good plan of attack and a great solution to my problem. I highly recommend giving Grant a call with Foundation Recovery Systems to see what he can do for you!

We recently contracted Foundation Recovery Systems to address a water issue in our basement, and we couldn’t be more pleased with the results. Their team installed new drainage, jacks, a dehumidifier, and a triple sump pump, followed by a full encapsulation. Throughout the entire process, they kept me informed, walking me through each step as the work was completed. A special shoutout to Cameron Erwin, Kalvin Harris, and Niko Basham for their remarkable dedication, professionalism, and long hours to ensure the job was done right.

Had a service visit today with Brian German. Not my first rodeo with Foundation Recovery Systems (they are awesome!) but first time meeting Brian.

Five stars!

Grant Taylor did a great job! He called and told me when her would be there and actually showed up on time!(which NEVER happens) then he gave me a quote that was honest and explained it so I knew the reasons why the work needed done. He was patient with me and all my questions and didn’t make me feel bad about asking. Long story short he was awesome and it was a great experience for me mostly due to him!

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.
