Get matched with top concrete foundation repairers in Eugene, OR

"I'm finally getting around to writing a review, although the work happened awhile ago. When we noticed cracking in the walls at our house, we found three companies to call. I decided to hire the second company because they could do waterproofing in addition to structural repairs. I sure regret that decision! If I had called Ram Jack before hiring the other company, I would have been spared a two-year ordeal and the loss of thousands of dollars. Instead, I ended up calling Ram Jack for a second opinion, after problems developed with the other company. Curt and Ken (the owner) came to do an assessment of our house. They were thorough and looked at the whole picture to determine what issues needed to be addressed, rather than just trying to sell their products and services. Their only recommendations were to replace a rotting support post in the basement and to direct water away from the foundation. When I told Ken what the other company had recommended and that most of the work had already been completed, he seemed shocked but did not use this as an opportunity to trash his competitor. Other people who looked at our house were not as charitable! I think this says a lot about Ken's character. The one recommendation from the other company that I thought might be justified was to pier a corner of the house that had settled about two inches. I was ready to sign off on this work but Ken strongly discouraged me from doing it, explaining that it was purely a cosmetic issue and that future settling was extremely unlikely because the water issue had been taken care of. He told me to at least wait a year and reassess the situation, turning down what would have been a 15-20 thousand dollar job. What I did end up hiring Ram Jack to do, was to correct the problems caused by the other contractor and to get everything up to code. The City scrutinized all of the work done at our house because it was not up to code and the other company did not obtain the proper permits. Ken was willing to collaborate with an engineer and carpenter to get the job done at the lowest cost to me. Although some of the damage caused by the other company could not be remedied, I think he got the best results possible without doing more extensive repairs. Everyone I had contact with at Ram Jack was wonderful. They even offered to haul away debris left from a previous job. I sure appreciate Ken's willingness to take on a relatively small job and to step in and fix someone else's work; many companies are not willing to do that. If I ever have a need for structural repairs in the future, Ram Jack will be my FIRST phone call. I highly recommend this company."

"I needed a foundation crack repaired and scheduled for Ram Jack, along with 2 others, for quotes to get that repair done. After receiving a quote from another business, to the tune of $53,000 for "other problems discovered", I had Ram Jack come out and did not tell them what the first place said. After they crawled under the house, took measurements, etc, they found nothing wrong with the foundation, advised me that I was not in need of their services, and provided me with the names of a few well-known and trustworthy local businesses that could repair the foundation crack. I cannot tell you what a relief that was and how impressed I am with the Ram Jack's honesty and integrity! They are definitely on my list of trustworthy people to deal with in the future, if / when needed!"

"couldn't raise one side of sunken sidewalk but adjusted the price"

"It went great. They were there on time. Lupe Alvarado, the foreman, kept me informed as to what they were doing, gave me a suggestion or two on what we could do, and got the job done efficiently & completely. Although they had allowed the entire day, it took only around 5 hours. They cleaned everything up perfectly."

"Try to not get in the situation that you need the repair and can't wait."

"Very professional approach to all stages of the project. All members of the crew displayed a commitment to high quality work. The bonus was that it was a family owner business , not a faceless corporate entity. I would highly recommend them for any concrete project."

"This company was on top of getting the work done, provided clear estimates, and followed through with the repairs described. It was a multi-layered project that could have been confusing to track, but they made it easy."

"I have hired Matt several times to do repairs and upgrades on my 1950's house. He works well with me on design and materials options. His price is reasonable. He is always friendly and professonal."

"No one wants to hear that they need foundation work on their house, and the costly repairs necessary. After receiving some bids from other foundation repair companies, we really appreciated Bill's  opinion (owner of On Solid Ground) of our foundation.  He showed my husband and I where the issues were, explained what he was going to do, and how the work would be guaranteed.  The work was scheduled and we were told it would take about a week to complete. <br />      When the On Solid Ground crew came to do the work, they quickly got to work.  While watching the project, we witnessed our yard being dug up (around the house) and saw lots of mud...and more mud.  We thought our yard would never recover from this project.  To our surprise, when the work was completed, one would never know that we had any work done at all. The crew put fences back in place, filled in all the areas that were dug up, and left no debris or ruts in the ground.  In fact, I told one of the crew members that the yard looked better after they were done than before they started! <br />      On Solid Ground was professional, and worked long hours to complete the project in a timely manner.  I would recommend Bill and the crew from On Solid Ground to anyone having to deal with foundation issues. He has the knowledge and experience to trouble shoot areas of concern in building/home foundations."

"I had such a positive experience with Vasiliy during last year’s chimney repair, that I hired him again for some concrete work. As usual, he did an outstanding job! This is the guy you want for your project."
