"The lifting and crack sealing of my driveway and front walkway/porch was fantastic. The driveway sank a little bit a couple of months after application and they came back to lift it free of charge. However, if you need concrete flatwork done, I would suggest going elsewhere. We had two corners that needed poured because they were too damaged to lift. They had to come out to repour three times in one year, and the concrete is already starting to crack again."

Our story begins with Johan Jacob Brose in 1863, where for three generations, my ancestors were master blacksmiths in Germany. These skilled craftsmen didn’t just forge metal; they forged a legacy of values that would shape our family for generations to come. When they immigrated to America, they brought with them not only their tools but also their unwavering commitment to quality, integrity, and hard work. Today, after six generations of craftsman, Smart Foundation Repair stands as a bridge between our German past and American present. We blend the meticulous craftsmanship of our blacksmith ancestors with cutting-edge American innovation. When we give our word, it’s as solid as German engineering and as reliable as the foundations we repair.
"GREAT company. Best value for sump pump."

"Pro Foundation did such an amazing job. Out of the companies that we thought would do a good job after getting estimates on our project, they were the most affordable. I also felt like they would work with us as things came up and be willing to go above and beyond. I was definitely correct on this. We are first time homeowners and a lot of this was new to us. Pro Foundation has been there to answer any questions that we have had along the way. I would highly recommend them for any work you might need done."

Full service landscape company specializing in Retaining Walls, Drainage/Erosion Solutions, Paver Patios, Landscape Design, and Plant/Tree Installation.
"From the beginning, I liked the fact that Cody was punctual. The first appointment he couldn't make, but he called to inform me, and that had value. When he did show, he took notes of what I wanted and gave some suggestions. I intentionally planned a big project, but we had to scale back once we found out that we needed to focus on another project. Anyhow, I had Cody's crew trim the front hedge and build a small retaining wall/garden area near my front porch steps. The area was small and had landscape timbers that needed to be removed. They did an excellent job of trimming the hedge. For the retaining wall, they removed the landscape timber, all but one, and it appears that they tried to use it as support for dirt. The first retaining wall attempt didn't look quite right. I looked at the finished product at night and didn't notice the extra landscape timber until the next day. I took a picture of it the day after that and brought it to Cody's attention. I didn't get a chance to tell Cody that we didn't have any landscape timber on the other side of the handrail, where there are pavers too, because he sent his guys back. I didn't anticipate this. The crew came back and asked what could be done. In full disclosure, I couldn't understand them too well, and thankfully, I grew up speaking Spanish because of my mother, and knew exactly how to communicate with them on how the retaining wall could function best without the landscape timber that was beneath the handrail. The young man, Alejandro, worked nonstop the day he first attempted to do it right, and for the do-over, he worked non stop. I noticed he hadn't eaten and I felt bad, so I gave him some snacks and water. He deserves good merit because he paid attention to how I wanted the wall/planting area to look. Maybe next time I'll make them lunch. The job ended up looking beautiful and will look great once I have flowers in it."

The right residential landscaping can completely transform a lawn from nice to amazing. But proper landscaping can do much more than just provide aesthetic value. When done right, landscaping can elevate your home’s curb appeal, increase your home’s value, and improve the usability of your property. Residential landscaping from Land Escapes will combine natural beauty with function to create a personal sanctuary where you can relax and extend your living space into the outdoors. Land Escapes specializes in a variety of hardscaping elements, including colorful textured stamped concrete patios, retaining walls, paver patios, walkways, driveways, outdoor kitchens, courtyards, terraces, water features, benches, counters, fireplaces, pool decks, accent walls, edging, and more. Land Escapes creates creative and distinctive hardscaping designs using a variety of materials, including flagstone, cut stone, pavers, natural stone, and more. We can combine materials in different shapes, patterns, textures, and colors to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind designs that produce visual interest. Your landscape needs water to survive. But too much or too little water can be detrimental to your landscape. A residential irrigation system from Land Escapes takes the guesswork out of keeping your landscape properly watered and makes your landscape easier to maintain while keeping it lush and healthy.
"Our project setting was a lackluster 1950's home with a a couple of obligatory native trees in the back yard. Laeken suggested planting 3 groups of mixed evergreens with mulch and space for future boulders. I absolutely loved the idea! Now, the work has been completed and even with non-mature evergreens, my home is suddenly a place of retreat and comfort, that privacy from the plantings offer. The value of our home has improved immeasurably with beautiful evergreens that will be extremely easy to care for and will only get better over the years. I would be remiss not to mention the project was installed very quickly by two of the hardest working humans ever. Laeken and her staff are very driven. They paid attention to detail, making sure everything from design to staking, was completed correctly and quickly. We are very pleased we went with Land Escapes. They are truly a quality company that cares about their customer!!"

Visible cracks, water leaks, uneven floors, or walls that won’t line up are classic red flags. You might also notice sticking windows, doors that no longer latch, or exterior cracks crawling up brick or siding. Even a damp, musty basement can hint at trouble. If you spot any of these, call a foundation pro right away. Early inspections cost far less than waiting until the damage threatens your home’s stability.
Yes, foundation problems impact your home’s value. Buyers want proof that the foundation is stable, and a recent, professional repair can actually boost confidence in your home. You’ll need to disclose the work, but documentation showing the structure was properly stabilized, especially with piers in regions known for shifting soil, often reads as a plus, not a problem. Skipping repairs, on the other hand, can cut your sale price and shrink the pool of interested buyers. Taking care of the issue protects both value and peace of mind.
Foundations are engineered for exceptional longevity when constructed correctly and maintained diligently. Concrete slab foundations remain structurally sound for 200 years, while other foundation types deliver integrity between 75 and 100 years. Regular professional inspections and timely maintenance further secure a foundation’s lifespan and ensure your home stays safe over the long term.
