Get matched with top concrete foundation raise pros in Woodbridge, VA

"They initially thought we needed the foundations and poles replaced on one or more support poles for our main border beam. This was based on measurements before the carpet was taken out. We scheduled the work, and had the carpet removed. Once removed, it was apparent to the crew that showed up that the work didn’t need to be done. They quickly reassessed and were honest with me about the reassessment. Their crew was already on site and they could have easily just done the work and billed us. They had a structural engineer contact us to follow up and do a formal reassessment of what work needs to be done. Their crew chief attended the engineer’s assessment to make sure they understood. Their estimators and crew were friendly, honest, and knowledgeable. I paid their crew (already on site) to tear apart some wall to make sure we completed the inspection, but no additional work needed to be done. Their work ethic and commitment to getting this right has them on the top of my list for any future work I need done in their area of expertise."

"After researching reviews, we contacted Lux Foundation Solutions to assess the condition of the 1930’s stone foundation of our home. On the Lux Foundation Solutions website it states, “We saw a need for a honest, reputable and dedicated company within the industry; putting customers first before profit and personal interests.” Based on our interaction with the company this philosophy is spot on. Laurie, our initial contact was professional and helpful in scheduling and rescheduling appointments. Tony, the Lux Foundation Solutions structural engineer arrived right on time, listened to our concerns, and made an exceedingly thorough inspection of the property. His expertise, guidance and understanding of our foundation issues coupled with his suggestions and knowledge to rectify water and landscaping issues was exceedingly valuable and appreciated. We highly recommend Lux Foundation Solutions."

"Very professional! The two people that did the concrete raising were very helpful. Big shout out to Brian and Austin out of the Bristow location. Pricy, but foundation work is sometimes unavoidable."

"Good people to work with, professional in every way. Normally when we received 2" of rain water would start entering the basement. When we receive 3" the basement floor would be covered. Two days after installing their system our area received 8.5" of rain and our basement remained dry, not a drop got in the house. These guys know what they are doing."

"Dave and his team did a wonderful job with a new trench and drain system. He tied in 5 new downspouts to the new drain and re-attached and cleaned out a few more downspouts ensuring my home will remain dry during the wet weather. The job was done on time at a fair cost. Excellent communication and overall job well done."

"This is the second time that I have used S&S Waterproofing and Foundation Repair. The first time was to fix very large sink holes that were opening up in my front yard, apparently due to underground collapsed drainage piping. This time, when I contacted Steve I asked if they did retaining walls. Steve came to look at the job. I immediately expressed my concern with my limited budget, which Steve completely understood. He offered several options on how to complete the job within my budgetary constraints. We hired S&S Waterpoofing and Foundation Repair to do the job. During each phase of the job, Steve sent me photos of the job progression. He answered any questions that I had almost immediately via text message. Most importantly, he also made sure that my wife was onboard with anything that they were doing. Apparently he knows who controls the money and who the boss is! LOL! Additionally, during the job Steve identified issues with a previous contractors work and addressed those for me as well. Steve is very concerned with customer satisfaction, that is incredibly important to me and my wife! The end result was a beautiful retaining wall. The only thing better than the beauty of the wall is how well it works, drainage is completely handled with ease, even during bad rainstorms! When visitors come to the house, they all ask who built the new wall because it looks incredible! Thank you to Steve and his crew for doing such an amazing job! I am sure this is not the end of our relationship, I will be calling Steve for any of my construction needs in the future! Finally, I just wanted to say, I am the type of person that has anxiety with these types of situations, due to the cost issue, my personal lack of knowledge, and an inability to be able to see the end result before it's accomplished. It is incredible to have confidence in someone doing the work. Someone that keeps me updated, keeps within my budget, makes customer service a top priority. Steve, I can't say thank you enough!"

"I was going through old receipts and I saw one from Langhorne in 2003 (before I joined Angie's List) and thought I'd comment on what a great job Langhorne did.  After more than a dozen years, the concrete driveway looks new.

"Floodbusters did an excellent job sealing the water out of our basement. They installed a sump pump and drainage system which they check annually. We were very happy with their service. Employees were polite and knowledgable. We highly recommend them."

"The company was responsive - gave me a same-week appointment.  Adolfo came to my house, assessed the work to be done, and quoted me a fair price.  He did the work right at that time.  The job was done well - it looks professional and neat.   He even colored the concrete so the patches would better match the existing concrete.  I am pleased with the work.

"The construction project went so well, I felt that I had to write an online review so others would know about it.
Quote:  Someone physically came to my home, while I was there, and went over exactly what I wanted.  I expected (and received) an itemized estimate for work to be performed.  MW doesn't cost out every nail in the project but other companies hide overestimates by not telling you.  Very happy here.  I was able to see where big ticket items would hit my wallet and rethink items that were out of my budget.
Project Start:  I was given a general start date at the time of signing the contract.  They didn't start on my start date.  However, they kept the lines of communication open so I knew why we were sliding right and when I could expect my project to start.  The hold up was primarily the permit approval process.  Enough said...  
Foundation Team:  Impressive!  Demolished an old driveway completed all foundation work and poured the garage in about 2 weeks.
Framing Team: Pros!  Constructed the shell of the addition, completed the roof, and had the shingles on, again in about 2 weeks.
Siding Team:  Strength in numbers!  I'm not really sure if it took 2 days or 3 to rip off all the old aluminum siding and hang the vinyl.  Fascinating to watch.
Plumbing work:  Ran the pipes, no drips.  Considering it's from the 1970's the house has copper pipes.  I was a little surprised to see PVC on the new addition work but it's not like I specifically requested copper in my quote.
Overall construction: Very well done.
Job Site Crew:  I specially need to call out Matt Galassi at MW.  He's exactly the guy you want as your project manager.  Always, always, calls, texts, or emails you back.  Never sweats the small stuff when things that are out of his control pop up.  Has an excellent report with the team leads doing the work and the county inspectors approving the work.  Was VERY respectful of my family while 1. My pregnant wife wanted constant schedule updates. 2. My 3 y/o son asked him a million questions every day.  3. My newborn baby "needed" quiet (according to my wife). 4. I wanted to "help".  Other than Matt, I would minimally interact with the team leads.  All interactions were positive.
Warranty work:  I asked them to repoint an area on the foundation.  Done. 
Special requests:  There were two work items that I wished to postpone for an extended period of time. One was the actual break through into the addition from the existing home so as not to expose the newborn to anything.  I honestly thought it would never happen b/c I had paid in full, and there was little/no incentive for them to come back and do the final breakthrough.  However, Matt made sure it happened and put us right into their schedule when we were ready.  This is the kind of thing that makes a guy like me (hate facebook, spam, or anything that exposes you to identity theft) get online and write a review.
Bottom line:  You will absolutely get an excellent construction company that is ran by exceptional people if you go with MW Construction!
