"Trevor arrived promptly from Spanish Lake - about a 45 minute drive. I was able to move up my appointment by one day due to a cancellation. Trevor took his time, checking the house inside and out. Pleasant the entire time. He showed me how his device was calculating the movement of my wall. We talked for about 30 minutes. There was absolutely no pressure as we discussed costs, time frame and financing. Trevor spoke with confidence and fully answered all my questions. I felt completely at ease with Trevor. He answered all my questions confidently. .I was impressed with Trevor and the manner in which he carried himself and represented Foundation Recovery Systems.
