FSS did a fantastic job stabilizing our foundation. It took two weeks to complete the work. They drove the pipes 40' before they found solid ground. They did discover we had a water leak in two of our bathrooms(toilet & shower) most likely this caused the 4" drop. We should have done this more than 10 years ago but my husband was in denial. Robert was the foreman on our house and we could not have asked for a better person. Be sure to ask for Robert. We went with FSS because they were by far the least expensive and not as pushy as the others who came out and gave us quotes. My husband end up going by their warehouse to inspect the product before we made our decision. He is a farm boy who can fix anything but I refused to let him tackle this project. He was happy with the product and I was happy with the end results. My flower beds look just as they did before the job started. They came in like Ninjas; did the work and left without a trace. We are very happy and have already gave their number to two of our friends.

We hired Foundation Support Specialists to stabilize our foundation. We were probably ten years behind on doing this and did many things wrong before we finally called for help. We installed a new metal roof due to hail damage and new wood floors due to many cracks in the tile due to the unstable house. Dumb on our part. On an hourly basis I could hear our house popping and cracking but my husband thought I was nuts. After calling several foundation companies each one came up with a 4" drop in our bedroom. Every sales man that came to my house would do that magical tube level test thing and everyone would walk into my bedroom and say wow you can feel the slope. I thought the first guy was full of it but the next guys did the same thing. So, that explained all the noise and doors that would not shut. Our house was falling down. We decided on FSS because of the price they were way under the others who did similar installation. My husband even went to their work location before we decided to hire them so he could see The Who what when where and how's. He was impressed with their product. The crew showed up on a Tuesday and went right to work. By Friday they had made their way half way around our house (3300 sq ft). I laid in bed for an hour before getting up that morning and realized I had not heard one noise, not one bump not one creek I could not believe it. At this point all that they did was install the piers to the house they had not even lifted the house. They finished all the piers by the following Friday. It took longer than projected because of the depth they had to go before finding whatever solid layer they needed. I watched through the window in amazement as they kept forcing all the pipes down. So,it was not a con they really had to go further than expected. This also explains why our house moved so much. Most of the piers went 40'. Monday was lifting day. That was really cool. You could literally see the cracks in the house close. When my husband closed our bathroom door, I almost cried. The tears were there but I blinked them back. There was an engineer on site during the lift too. We did not level the house to perfect due to the metal roof; that was our call. My bedroom is only off two inches now but my doors close again. The rest of the house is in good shape and I'm happy. Our foreman was Robert and I would highly recommend him. He's quiet but kicked but when it came to work. He impressed me because he was not the type of foreman that yells at everyone and does not work. He was working just as had his crew. On a side note I would like to say there is a foundation company that came from Austin to give us a quote when we told him we went with FSS he send us a nasty text yelling at us that we wasted his time and blablabla. Wished I could say the company name but that would be mean of me.

The workers worked extremely hard. On most days, there was only 2 men, busting their butts to get the work done. I was quoted a week to finish, and it ended up taking 2 weeks and 2 days.

Josh and Marcus were an excellent team, and both were friendly and courteous. They explained the work they were about to undertake so that I could understand the process. The work appears to have been done properly. The job should have been completed in less than a day; however, on the first day a part on their machine broke and a replacement part had to be shipped from Houston. They explained the problem, apologized for the delay and promised to return on the next workday (Monday) to complete the job, which they did. They handled the disruption with minimal inconvenience for me. I would be happy to have workmen with their work and customer service skills any time.

I was originally a little nervous in choosing someone to repair my foundation. But after seeing some reviews from other sites, I was confident in choosing FSS. Brian gave me a printout of what needed to be done to repair my foundation and was able to work around my schedule. And in spite of some bad weather, FSS was able to complete the work when they said they would. They were always on time and were always professional. I have seen other crews work and I constantly see them bickering. Not so with FSS. They were professional throughout and Daniel was especially dedicated. I was very impressed with their hard work. I would highly recommend FSS.

I did a lot of research into foundation repair before calling any companies to look at our house so that I'd know what I was getting into. We got estimates from 4 companies before selecting FSS. All 4 had similar pricing. We chose FSS because unlike the other companies, FSS didn't badmouth their peers. Instead, Brian very professionally took his measurements, explained what we needed, explained the pros and cons of different types of repair systems, and even suggested I get a second opinion from another company before choosing a contractor. I had a hard time finding companies willing to travel to Del Rio, but Brian even gave me the names of other companies he knew would service my area. Brian, Josh and Richard were available on their cells any day of the week and even in the evenings. The crew was friendly and hardworking. Our crew foreman David was knowledgeable and able to answer all of our questions. FSS offers a lifetime warranty on their work, and the warranty transfers to the new owners if you sell the house. We highly recommend FSS.
