"Overall the job was performed well, and our house is now back to about as good as it can get. Ramjack calls what they do "practical recovery", and this is what I experienced. It is not exactly level everywhere, but it is within a 1/4 to 1/2 inch or so everywhere, and it will not be rising and falling with the seasons, as it had earlier. <br /> I moved into my house a little over a year ago. The expansive clay soil underneath my home was unfortunately eroded due to some poor gutter downspout placement by the initial and previous owners, running the water from nearly half the roof area straight into the ground next to the foundation (not even attempting to guide the drain away from the concrete foundation, but just clipping off the downspout as it entered the dirt next to the foundation). Sixty years of that had taken it's toll, and the foundation had settled in two areas by about 2 inches. This 2 inch deviation was over a distance of only about 6 ft in some areas, and put strain and cracks in our wall and ceilings, and caused our doors to go out of alignment regularly. I was tired of readjusting the bathroom and bedroom doors so they would close. <br /> Ramjack has some excellent crews, and my crew was led by Freddy, who was just awesome in every way. Freddy communicated everything clearly, was genuinely interested in performing the best foundation repair possible, and made sure I understood and agreed with every step along the way. They used very stiff channel iron to stabilize the foundation walls and prevent more cracking (I already had multiple cracks in the foundation). They clearly explained how that would work with the final lift to prevent further cracking of the foundation during the lift. Freddy and his crew were really courteous, friendly, and industrious throughout the time they were here. I would ask for Freddy's crew to perform your job, but I think all Ramjack's crews are pretty good. The final lift with Ramjack's owner (Ken Marquardt) supervising was performed well. It was a bit of an anxious time for me, but it turned out well, and I am quite satisfied with the final result. <br /> I had a bid from the major competition to Ramjack also, but after seeing the foundation repair work the competitor performed for my niece, I was leery of their performance, and went with Ramjack instead. I am happy with that decision. The helical piers are, in my opinion, the way to go for the majority of foundation lifts. The push pier system that the competitor used for my niece's house resulted in multiple new cracks in their foundation. I would highly recommend Ramjack and their helical piers. <br />"
