"A little late on my review. First issue is a salesman that has no idea weather the foam injection is an open cell or closed cell. After 2 years of a portion of the foam that was shot under the exterior undermined concrete was destroyed. Oil base foam was used for no UV breakdown like the technician said I needed to do when I asked. Even with no sunlight the foam absorbed moisture, Now after thousands of dollars spent on leveling with open cell foam it was only a treatment of the symptom and not a cure. So far the undeveloped concrete is now heading back to where it was. Not to mention the stabilize part of the bill of goods does not happen when there are still areas the vibration from an air compressor running. The actual cause of the unlevel concrete is no compaction of the ground and the lazy man saw cut expansion joint just like I thought! But do not tell a salesman any common sense reason."

Our top priority is providing high-quality home repair solutions and personalized service across Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, Florida, and Tennessee. With fully trained technicians, industry-leading products, and nationally backed warranties, AFS is here to restore your basement, foundation, or crawl space.
"Our project started in March. It was not finished. We had to keep calling for someone to finish. A diagram was made of what would be done and how much it was going to cost. Shims were supposed to be put in. We showed it to one of the many different people from AFS. One guy, Todd, I believe his name is, told us for 6,000.00 we could get shims in. The guys shot holes through our skirting around the house. The first patch job was a dark grey. These aren't the only places they shot through. Now its cracking also. How is this possibly great work for almost 10,000.00!? The last guy to come out hasn't been back since Oct. Knoxville AFS is terrible! The last guy was here in Oct and not only are they not answering calls, they don't call us back."

"I had Jakie and his crew come out and poured a 25'x24' pad outside my garage. After the forms were pulled there was more mud than concrete at the front edge of the driveway. Within a few days the edge collapsed, and concrete broke away. There was also blotching discoloration in about an 8' section. Jakie had his crew come back out to look at the issue and agreed it needed to be cut out and re-poured. Then all communication with him went silent. After multiple phone calls and text messages he never returned my calls and has not come back to repair the poor quality work his people did. I would definitely steer clear of using this guy and his company for any projects. He had no problems taking my money. Even after his people said the driveway needed to be repaired, he failed to meet the most basic requirements of his customer. And that is the fix what was wrong and call the customer back! Terrible person to do business with."

H&S Concrete Services is the one to call for your projects, Commercial or Residential. -Driveways -Sidewalks / Steps -Basements -Footers -Concrete Pads -Concrete Porches .....And More! We are 100% Family owned and operated with Over 40 Years Experience!
"We hired H&S Concrete to do a concrete patio and steps. They did great work. I am happy with the results, but not happy with the mess they left behind. They left several big concrete slabs in our front yard that we are not able to move and left the concrete that ran out from under the wood frame around the steps and we are not able to get that up, so the steps look bad. We were told they would be back to clean up when they finished the job on 8/13/24, it's 9/25/24 and they have not been back and not answering texts. We are getting ready to start another job right where these concrete slabs are laying and will now probably have to pay someone to have them removed because H&S won't come clean up. - I answered "no" about hiring again, but if they would come and clean up the mess then the answer would be "yes" I would hire again."

On average, it takes two to seven days to physically raise your house. However, this does not include the preparation work, which is often the most lengthy process. The entire project, including preparation, obtaining permits, disconnecting utilities, and any subsequent landscaping, can take four to eight weeks. This timeline ensures everything is done safely and that your home remains structurally sound.
If proper safety protocols are not followed, raising a house can cause severe damage, as the process involves applying controlled force to the home's structure. The risks involved make it crucial to hire a skilled contractor who uses engineered methods to secure your home and prevent any harm to your household.
If your foundation shows signs of instability after raising your home, you might need to add structural support. A structural engineer can assess your foundation and recommend reinforcements to ensure your house stays stable and safe for the long term. Available support options include installing additional piers or pilings, reinforcing existing footings, or using steel beams to distribute the load more evenly.
You will need a structural engineer to assess your home before you begin. These professionals determine whether your house is suitable for lifting and identify any issues that could compromise its stability. Their expertise ensures that the project is designed correctly and all risks are managed to achieve a successful lift.
