Get matched with top foundation, basement or crawlspace waterproofing / encapsulation pros in Katy, TX

"I had some settling issues with my foundation, and Jacob from FSS did a thorough evaluation of the problem. I had already had six different companies come by, so I was getting familiar with the routine. What impressed me about the FSS solution was that they could actually stabilize the foundation, putting it on piers that would not shift in the future, unlike the other companies. When the installation crew arrived (Thomas, Timothy and Kennen), they brought along some really impressive galvanized steel hardware. The installation crew was clean and very meticulous about the details, making sure everything was installed correctly. After the foundation was stabilized and leveled, another crew came to do a polyfoam injection under the foundation to fill the air gap left by leveling the foundation. This way the entire foundation is supported, and not resting just on the edges. Overall, I was very pleased with the work. They were certainly not the cheapest, but then, you often get what you pay for."

This could have been a horrible review but something happened to change my mind. Last year I had an estimate from Abry Brothers to lift and stabilize the foundation on one corner of my rental house.  There were step cracks in the brick, cracks in the interior sheetrock and windows that were stuck on that side of the house.  Estimate was in line with other companies.  Did a little research and decided on Abry Brothers because of how long they have been in business, my real estate agent recommended either them or U.S.S., and we really felt confident in the opinion of the supervisor who gave the estimate. His name was Keris.  He seemed very knowledgeable and earned our trust. I finally called to schedule an appointment.  Work was scheduled to put five piers in the back corner of the house.  Workers showed up on time and they put the piers.  They did not, however, back fill the soil that was removed or fix the cracks in the brick mortar.  We were told by Rudy Bautista, the crew supervisor, that the piers had to settle and they would have to come back to complete the work.  While they were there Rudy spoke to me about renting the house, an agreement was reached on the rental, he signed a lease and moved in.  In the meantime, I asked him several times about completing the work.  He always promised to do it within the next few days but it never happened. Finally after two months I told him that even though he was my tenant, I was going to call Abry Brothers headquarters and complain if the work wasn't completed by the next weekend.  It was never done so I called Abry Brothers to make a complaint.  To my surprise, they told me that Rudy had been fired weeks ago.  He was still driving an Abry Brothers car so I had no indication that he had lost his job. Eventually I had to have him evicted.  I made another appointment for Abry Brothers to come up to inspect and complete the work.  This time Keris came.  They discovered that only four, not five piers were put in but the house had no further sinking.  They put in the fifth pier, back filled the soil around the area and fixed the cracks in the mortar. It took a long time to get the work completed because of a dishonest employee but they remedied that problem and fired him. Keris and the crew that he brought to finally complete the project were wonderful.  They did a great job and I am finally confident that the work was done correctly.  The house looks great.  Thank you Abry Brothers, and especially Keris, for making things right.

"The basement king was a pleasure to work with. His knowledge is unmatched in the Texas area for sure. I received multiple quotes and talked to multiple companies and he was the best. He's passionate about his work and the manner in which it's done. If he says something, it happens. An added benefit was their cleanliness. Usually a job site of this size and complexity is a mess, but not with the basement kings. 10/10!"

"Amazing! JOC answered all questions, was in and out within a few days and I no longer feel like the crooked man in the crooked house. I would recommend them to anyone that’s asks about foundation."

"Kody and his guys did a fantastic job. The guys were very professional and courteous and afterwards, did a really good job of cleaning up. When calling/texting Kody, he always answered and did exactly what he said they would! I would definitely recommend Foundation Masters!"

"Ybarra Professional Builders did 2 big plumbing projects on my house and property. Not only did they install a brand-new main water line to replace the old leaking galvanized steel pipe, but they also re-piped my house's plumbing as it was also made from that same rusting out galvanized steel. I also had some other major work done by them at the same time (tree removal and sprinkler repair) but since Home Advisor asked for a specific type of project for this review, I will only review the plumbing projects. Vlad was the project manager for all of these projects. He coordinated all of the sub-contractors' work and got the projects done in a timely manner. There were none of the time issues that I had heard about with other contractors, such as waiting weeks between one phase of a project to get the next one started-after one phase was done, the next phase would begin with no more than a day or two in between. He was very pleasant and very patient with my many questions and concerns and kept me up-to-date with what was happening. The project that I most dreaded, the house plumbing re-piping, was not as bad as I thought it would be, to my great relief. All of the people who I dealt with at Ybarra were pleasant and professional, from the sub-contractors to the office staff. I think the quality of the work performed was very good. In the additional clean-up phase, the holes in the drywall where the plumbing had been re-piped were patched and painted, and the concrete where the driveway had to be cut to replace the main water line was re-poured. This portion of the project was available as an additional cost, but the workmanship was very good. I had heard and read many horror stories about dealing with contractors so working with this group was a pleasant surprise. Thank you, Vlad."

"This job went good. We set up a date, they were on time, and they were quick. However, the quality was hard to gauge. In some rooms the carpet was wet, but I couldn't tell how clean it was. There were a few areas that were stained that I went back later and cleaned. These stains came up, but it was hard to tell if it was a quality issue or not."

"They remodeled our entire home every day foundation repair. We would highly recommend Top Notch excellent communication came in under budget and all the time. Great company to work with."
