Foundation Inspection DFW

[niceg3s]

Anyone in the DFW area that can do an inspection on the foundation of a house?

Thanks

You know companies come out and do that for free right?

Would you trust all of them?

Probably won't if I'm not the homeowner. That's been my experience.

I'm a Realtor and represent buyers mostly. They come out and donit hoping for the business.

That's definitely true, but the "hoping for the business" part makes you want to be careful about who you call out. I've been in homes with no glaring foundation concerns where a foundation company rep recommended 12 piers.

The most honest operation in DFW I know of is:

True on that part. I consider them nothing but salespeople, but is a good indicator if problems might exist.

When I represent a seller, we like to go with engineer inspection, and on the buy side, hoping the seller gets an engineer inspection as well.

Thanks Luke, if the inspector is concerned I'll give Kevin a call to follow up, but I'd want to pay him. Lewisville is a hike and I value his time.

We have used a company out of the Dallas area called Ram Jack. Very professional and have been out here twice for no charge for an inspection and consultation. Highly recommend them.

Yeah a lot of foundation repair companies will do a free assessment but it's hard to trust someone who's trying to make a sale. I ended up needing foundation repair a couple years ago and went with ramjack.

My recommendation call an independent structural engineer foundation companies are there to see. It will 750 or so but a piece of mind. I did 20 plus years of construction forensics working under PE’s
