About Us
We are the professional foundation contractors you have been looking for if you live in or near Bloomington, Illinois. Why?

When we say we really dig foundations we mean it.

Since so many of the problems with foundations come from groundwater or drying we are also experts in waterproofing both to avoid damp and to ensure structural integrity for your property. So you, and your property can count on us to steady those structures now and forever. If you need basement repairs, foundation repairs, crawlspace repair, or concrete leveling, call us today.
Our Services
We could just say we repair foundations but even that simple phrase involves a world of different skills and services. There is no one reason why foundations need a helping hand. There could have been poor installation or engineering miscalculation when the original foundations were planned and laid. Plus circumstances change with shifting water levels causing soil to shrink, compaction causing foundations to drop, or the building being extended or its load bearing extended beyond the original concept. Then there are the emergencies where flooding has caused water damage or subsidence tips buildings off the level. And the less urgent emergencies where damp is causing mold or mildew to spread through the property. For each and every one of those problems we are the solution.

Foundation
Repair
Foundations should be the rock your building rests on and counts on for stability and durability but time has a knack of throwing up surprises. We deal with those surprises by modernising, repairing, or upgrading your existing foundations, whatever type they may be, in order to take into account the subsequent forces that are causing legacy foundations to fail.
Bloomington Basement Crack Repair
There are a dozen reasons why cracks appear in basement walls ranging from the harmless (drying, settling) to the more sinister (subsidence, soil shifting). Our foundation technicians can analyze and identify the causes of your cracking and deal with the underlying causes as well as taking care of the visible crack damage itself. We take cracks seriously because of their potential implications so when you call in our contractors you know that the one thing we aren’t going to do is paper over them. If you need basement repairs, call us today.
Bloomington Basement Waterproofing
Damp in basements is not something you should ever accept or put up with. IT doesn’t have to be evident flooding to be something serious. Even low levels of damp can lead to mold and mildew and may well be symptoms of more serious underlying problems that could be affecting the foundations your home rests on. We look for the causes of damp as well as the symptoms and deal with both in a professional and permanent way to ensure the structural security of your property as much as its appearance.
Bloomington
Crawl Spaces
Repair
Crawl spaces have their champions and their critics but if your building has a crawl space then the good news is that whatever the issues with it the fact that it is a crawl space means we can get access to it and deal with it (even if it means our technicians spend all day on their bellies). We can encapsulate crawl spaces and lay heavy duty waterproof membranes to avoid the damp problems that often plague them or we can fully enclose them and incorporate the ventilation systems required to keep them dry and structurally sound.
Bloomington Commercial Concrete Leveling
Commercial buildings require specialists because of their heavier footfall, frequent changes of purpose, and the need to keep open and working as much as possible in order to keep the cash flow on the positive side. Which is why commercial landlords call on us to stabilise their property with the latest in fully supportive helical pier and pile upgrades while minimising disruption to their business and working in close collaboration with other construction contractors on jobs.
Bloomington
House
Leveling
Your house is your home and that means there’s so much resting on that beyond the weight of the walls, floors and ceilings. If that starts to slip off the level it’s deeply disturbing on many levels. So the good news is that we have dealt with all kinds of house levelling ranging from partial soil shrinkage that causes floor dipping to compaction issues that tilt walls and even entire houses starting to slip downhill. We can correct them all with any one of a variety of tricks we have up our sleeves including polyurethane foam injection, hydraulic leveling, steel piles, anchors, and piers. Call on our skilled professionals and we’ll have your house back on the straight and level in no time.
