Get matched with top concrete foundation repairers in Johnston, IA

"Foundation Recovery Systems did a great job raising our front porch and a section of our driveway in the summer of 2023. Today we had a follow-up inspection performed by Ryan Swift, a service technician with the company. Everything is still looking good and Ryan was very thorough and professional while performing and explaining the inspection. I highly recommend Foundation Recovery Systems."

"It was fine. They showed up on time, got the job done and it added value to my house."

"The crew was absolutely amazing! Very impressed with how professional, polite, and personable they all were. The management and crews are top notch! Management answered all the questions I had, walked me through what steps they were going to take to get things done. Dustin was extremely thorough, knowledgable, and took time to explain the recommended systems. I will 100% be utilizing them in the future strictly based on the level of trust and quality he presented! His communication was fantastic, they always arrived on time. They were careful with the property, always cleaned up when they were done. I will absolutely hire them again to complete any future foundation/basement work and I will absolutely recommend this company without reservation or hesitation. They stand behind their work."

"It went pretty good. They had to return to resolve the cover fit issue."

"Showed up on time for project review. Provided a documented estimate overnight. Had a project date. Sought permission and came sooner than originally planned. The crew was quick and methodical. The sidewalk repairs were accomplished without incident and the result was a work area that left no signs of ever having been done...except for excellent finished concrete. Will be sure to use them for future projects and most definitely will recommend them without hesitation."

"The crew showed up as promised. They were a great bunch of guys! They explained everything they were doing. Justin stopped by frequently to check on the work and to handle some of the work himself. They installed 5 helical piers, added the downspouts and a curtain drain with a waterproof membrane to pipe the water away from the house and covered it with decorative stone. We opted to close up the basement windows, so they blocked them up and added a waterproof barrier on the outside of the openings. Justin made up an innovative plexiglass cover for the basement door opening to keep the water from entering there. The work took three days and when they were done everything looked like they had not disturbed anything - in fact the north side with the curtain drain looked better than when they started. I would definitely recommend IFR!"

"The crew came in the first day and began cutting into the floor around the perimeter of the basement taking care of two separate rooms and the furnace room, which connects to the new basement through a doorway. <br /> As the work progressed the window wells were opened along the side of the basement closest to the driveway and window drains were installed to help control the water flow into the new drainage system. <br /> Next the dual sump-pump system was installed and the provider gave us complete details on how the system would work.  He then asked us for input on how to locate the external drain to the exterior and we showed the installer where we would be installing a new deck and asked that the discharge point would be placed out clear of the overhang of the deck and would follow the edge of the existing concrete pad that would remain under the new deck. <br /> Next the installers brought loads of crushed rock to be used in back filling the interior drain channels along the perimeter of the basement floor.  It was loaded from the driveway through one of the window wells that had previously been opened up along the driveway. <br /> The No-Water-System was placed in the channels and then covered with concrete and smoothed out.  The floor was thoroughly cleaned and swept and then an open drain was installed below the floor level in the doorway connecting the old basement to the new. <br /> This crew was exceptionally courteous and cheerful.  They were a delight to have in our home.  We would recommend Spencer, Randy, and Zach to anyone.  John Peterson was directly involved in the sump-pump installation and also provided the services of sales representative and foreman for the job.  He was thorough, professional, and an absolute dear. <br /> They were all pleasant to be around and did not object to questions or a little light humor and such as the job proceeded. <br /> <br />"
