"They contacted me promptly and were out within a couple of hours as they were working close by. I needed a large rock removed and they had the equipment and knowledge necessary to remove it. The price was reasonable, and they took care of a situation we wanted resolved for years. Matt was great and knew exactly what to do. Highly recommended."

"Everdry did a total basement system for us. Brandon and his crew were amazing at walking through each step in the project, keeping us updated on timelines, and great overall communication. Amazing crew they had. Only reason total experience was 4 stars was the high pressure sales "free inspection". After a thorough walkthrough (which was appreciated), we sat down to a timeshare-esque presentation of their system. Everydry seems to have one big project type, which as someone who hasn't had any previous basement work was needed for our case. After he presented his solution and suggested the total system, he gave us a number that was not itemized or broken down, but just a total projected cost. When we said we'll think about it, the cost came down by 10% if we signed up that day before he left. We again said we'll think about it (even if we had to pay the original estimate). He finally came back with a "final" offer of almost 25% off if we could start on 3 days since a crew was on standby and needed a job. We eventually ended up signing then. Would have been an easy 5* review had he just done the walkthrough and allowed us to get some other opinions or quotes before moving forward with them. That said, the work appears to be fantastic, appreciated the total system, and again the crew, lead by Brandon, was amazing. Left our basement clean and walked us through each new addition to our basement system. Thanks for all your help."

"I wish I had hired them first! I hired another company to fix my moving bowed and shearing basement walls. They were primarily a waterproofing company, but said they had the solutions to my issues. 3 months after they were complete, my walls cracked and shifted again. (Note, in the attached photos, the patchwork quilt on the walls was the OTHER company.) OBA fixed my issues the correct way. And they were great at every step. The work crew Caleb, Delontae, and Dylan were fast, efficient, and cleaned up when they were done. Caleb made sure to explain what was happening as they did the work and ask if I had questions. The work was thorough, and I feel good about it. And even better, they'll be out in 6 months to ensure everything is working as it should and make adjustments if needed."

Construction company and consulting engineering firm for residential, industrial, commercial, institutional, and retail clients.
"Had Betts Structural Engineering come and look at the foundation of a house we were in contract on. Josh came out and was professional and informative. He informed us the foundation was failing and explained what needed to be done. He throughly explained everything and told us how we could do it ourselves for much cheaper than a contractor could do it. In the end he saved us from a long and expensive process if we proceeded with the house."

To find the right pro for your foundation project, start by collecting several estimates and asking for references. Make sure each contractor is licensed, insured, and has experience with projects like yours. Taking these steps helps you avoid hidden charges and ensures you're partnering with someone you can trust.
Concrete foundations last 80 to 100 years or beyond. They are designed to support your home over many decades when constructed with premium materials and precise installation methods. Factors like soil characteristics, severe weather, and systematic maintenance directly influence their endurance. Watch for early indications of damage such as uneven floors, bowed walls, or cracks, and consult a foundation expert immediately to preserve your home’s structural integrity.
The most cost-effective foundation option is the monolithic slab foundation. It merges the footing and slab in one continuous pour, reducing labor and material expenses significantly while providing a strong, unified base. Its efficient construction method minimizes disruptions and costs, ensuring an optimal balance of quality and affordability. This option offers homeowners a reliable, budget-friendly solution without sacrificing structural integrity.
