Tom was a true professional who genuinely seems to care about people and families over money. He came out to look at a concern I had with our foundation and easily could have told me it needed to be repaired and charged me an arm and a leg. Instead he immediately let me know it was nothing to worry about and was just cosmetic and did not charge me anything. That type of honesty is nearly impossible to find these days. Tom will definitely be the first guy I call if I ever need foundation work. I cannot offer a higher recommendation. read more

Great experience with Tom Dodson and his crew. Competitively priced, fast communication and even faster scheduling to fix our foundation. Tom is honest and doesn't try to add more than what is needed. Highly recommend! read more

Tom came out after repairs were made on my cousin's home. My cousin was pleased with him, his team and their work ethic. He showed up on time, completed all his work. Repaired my cousin's home and guarantees for life and transferrable if they decide to sell! We were excited to have him out to check on our foundation and make sure everything was good on a '87 home. Luckily, Tom is honest and did not try to gouge us with unnecessary repairs. He took the time to measure with his "technical " device and explained how the measurements would tell us if we needed foundation repairs. Our home is great and needed no repairs but, he told us the rooms to watch for and how shifting occurs in every Texas home. He is genuine, nice and I highly recommend him. My cousin chose him because he was the most accurate, consistent, and guarantees his work (he got 3bids). I highly recommend him and his company-it's hard to find trustworthy people that provide excellent customer service. You get this with Dodson foundation repair. In a side note-Tom is a "hype guy" wearing Hoka's (shoes) to support his foundation (body)-the guy really knows what's good support-you can't go wrong with him. read more

Dodson Foundation Repair - Home exterior - Foundation Repair Near Me - Allen, Texas

we have used Doran Foundation Repair a couple times. Tom Dodson is the most honest man! He literally has been called out to homes where other people have quoted them thousands of dollars in repairs when he can see the work is actually minimal. This is a good man with a good honest business ethic. He was out today bc we had some cracks in our walls. he let us know they weren't a big issue and even suggested we not fix them immediately and to wait till end of summer when things settle down a little more with the house. we will always use them for issues with cracks and foundation work! read more

On time, honest and trustworthy. He walked me through the inspection and explained his conclusions.

I have used Dodson Foundation for prior work and have been pleased with their work and honesty. Tom and Misty have always been nothing but professonal when I have had other concerns and questions in different areas of my home. When they come out and do the measurements, he is happy to explain and show you the readings and what they mean. I cant say enough good things. Call them, they make it easy to do business with and put your mind at ease. read more

I had hired another contractor to perform my foundation repairs and they were unprofessional and performing shoddy work. I stopped them, licked my wounds, and brought in Tom Dodson. For just a little more than the unqualified, shoddy contractor, he came in and fixed my foundation correctly and completely. He provides a lifetime, freely transferable warranty and is an honest man who conducts himself and his business with integrity. I highly recommend him for your foundation (and drainage) work! read more

I thought my house needed some sort of foundation repair due to cracks within outside and inside walls. Tom arrived at appointed time and was very friendly. He did a thorough review including measurements. He took the time to answer my questions about the things I was seeing. He was honest enough to let me know I didn't need foundation repair at this time. He pointed out a tree that might become a concern down the road. No charge for his visit. Tom is truly a professional and super honest. I wish all people/companies would have a quarter of the integrity he does. Thank you, Tom and Misty. read more

Tom recommended piers under our home to stop the damage from the foundation shifting. Despite their assurances to "leave it like they found it" several of our bushes died, our drainage pipe and sprinklers were broken. Despite several calls to have them fixed, it never happened. Then about a year and a half later our house began to move again. I reached out to Tom to see if they would come to adjust the piers. I mentioned that we had also consulted another company, and he was quite insulted and refused to return to honor his "lifetime" warranty". We recently paid for an engineering report, and pretty much we will have to redo all prior work. I tried reaching out to Tom to discuss it with him. But not even a return call. Can't recommend this guy - despite the fact that he's a 'nice guy'.. it's been pretty much a nightmare. read more

Tom Dodson deserves five+ stars. Honest, great integrity, very thorough and feels his professional responsibility is to be truthful and not inflate his services or your needs for foundation repair. He spent a great deal of time at our house and concluded that we didn't need anything done! He explained every crack we have too. I highly recommend his services. He was referred to me by a colleague who did need his foundation services and she said he was much more reasonable than other bids she got. read more

We had a terrific experience with Tom! He came out for a free evaluation and determined that our issue was not a foundation issue but instead a water issue. I'll update if this information turns out to be wrong, but I'm really struggling to understand why there were any negative reviews, because he could have easily convinced us we needed work done when we didn't. He also refused to accept any payment for his evaluation, and was incredibly kind and honest. I would recommend giving him a shot and making your own determination. read more

Beware-Tom appears honest & trustworthy but I found out differently when I recently had an independent engineer check my foundation following Tom's foundation repair. Tom not only figured it incorrectly placing fewer piers (13) than was needed (24) but also did not even follow his own original plan & then lied about what he said he did. I have his graphs to prove that. He returned the money required for an engineer follow-up inspection because he was sure they did a good job & there would be no issues. At the time I was naive enough to take it. Now I realize he knew it wasn't done properly. The engineer I hired said no way was my foundation fixed correctly & now it has to be done again. Other complaints I have were the condition my drip lines were left - twisted & damaged in several places - and the fact that they threw away four dormant shrubs (work was done in February this year) without asking me. One of Tom's big selling points was he would leave my property exactly as found. This is simply not true. And now after paying to get my drip lines fixed, stamped concrete repaired & shrubs replaced I find out I have to have my foundation repair work done again. I have discussed with Tom all the evidence I have that supports me being scammed & have asked for my money back. My next step is filing a report with the BBB & FTC & that will be followed by legal action if Tom still refuses to settle this peacefully. My advice to any one suspecting foundation issues is to first hire an independent engineer! read more

I can only speak from my limited interaction with Tom. Before entering the house he commented it was an upheaval of the foundation due to the the cracks in the brick mortar being wider on the bottom than the top. That, and the amount of rain we've had this season. He was very informative and had me do the measurements with him. The measurements matched what he was saying AND differed by over .5" from what another company had told me. In all, he said I did not need work done unless it's -1". The corner of the house in question would settle when the soil dries out. The other company was going to charge over $5k for 7 pillars to fix 1/2" of wrongly measured foundation. Think I'll wait for the Summer and see if it settles. Thanks Tom. read more

Dodson Foundation is a company you can trust! Tom came out to assess my foundation and from the second he stepped foot through my door, he was very thorough and informative. You can tell he has the customer's best interest in mind and isn't trying to sell you something you don't necessarily need. Ultimately, he deemed that the shifting in my pier and beam house has been due to all of the rain we've been getting lately and didn't have any recommendation for repairs which would have been $20,000+. Thanks, Tom! read more

Mr. Dodson came out to inspect some areas of concern where the ground was pulling away from our home's foundation. He was wonderful! He gave us advice on what to do to keep it from becoming a full-blown foundation problem and let us know that what we were seeing is normal settling. Our inspection was pleasant and informative. He was forthright and honest about what was happening, letting us know that we did not need any repairs. We will definitely be keeping this company in mind for future use. I can't say enough about the wonderful service and peace of mind he was able to provide! read more

Dodson Foundation Repair - Foundation Repair Near Me - Allen, Texas

When you think of foundation repair, you automatically think of the cost of getting it done. That's what I did, so I just knew we were going to have to pay at least 20K. Dodson Foundation Repair is reasonably priced, in my opinion. Mr. Dodson is extremely professional. He was recommended by my realtor. She said she had Dodson Foundation Repair come out to her house to check her foundation, but he was honest and said nothing was wrong with it. I'm not sure if other companies wouldn't have taken advantage of that, since she already thought there were issues. I emailed Mr. Dodson and I received a reply from him within minutes, asking when he could come over to assess our foundation. We agreed for him to come over at 8 AM, but he was there by 7:45, which I really appreciated. Mr. Dodson is very honest. We've had someone look at our foundation before, but they went from room to room to measure the damage alone. Once they were done, they told us what was wrong and how much it was going to cost. Mr. Dodson had me come with him to each room and showed me which areas needed work and the measurements for each room. After that, he provided me with his quote and like I said, he was reasonable. His main concern is providing the best service to his customers and in return he appreciates good recommendations. We set our appointment to have our foundation worked on, but we only did whatever we really needed at the time. Even though we were only able to do part of it, we could tell there was a huge difference immediately. Our doors no longer stick and the cracks have somewhat closed. Just like Mr. Dodson, his employees are professional. They came 15 minutes before our scheduled time and they were done installing 17 piers within 6 hours. There are a lot of foundation companies out there, but if you are looking for a company that is professional, honest, and reasonable, Dodson Foundation Repair is your company. read more

This is - believe it or not - a foundation company with integrity. They do not oversell, and they do not claim work is needed when it isn't. They have been in business for over 30 years and stand behind their work. I needed an adjustment several years after my house had foundation work - Tom's crew came out promptly, adjusted the leveling, and there was no charge. Can't say enough about their work and their honesty. You should call Dodson Foundation before doing any work on your foundation. read more

Tom Dodson was amazing! You don't see integrity like this man everyday. He came in and checked our foundation and told us we just had a shift and it's happening a lot right now. He showed me on the meter he had what he was looking at and explained everything to me. He was so kind and honest! Thank you so much! Being a new home owner is intimidating but finding people like him helps so much! read more

Dodson Foundation is not who you want to repair your foundation. Rating Dodson Foundation I must rate it as a minus 0 because Dodson is not truthful he claims he repairs but he does not repair as he claims. The back of my mothers' house was as near to completely falling as any house I've ever known of or seen. The damage his failure to repair the foundation is near $ 2,000.00 dollars just to repair damaged walls and doors. His Guaranteed Unconditional Lifetime Warranty is not a Ligament Warranty. The warranty is good as long as you do not have a problem with the work he did or may not have did. Do not use Dodson his warranty is misleading and wrong. There were no beams and piers under the back of my mom's home Dodson claimed he shimmed them. He did not because a contractor had to place 4 beams and 20 piers to repair the house. Dodson is not a person to trust. Dodson sent a refund check in the amount of $ 2,000.00 dollars that is not nearly enough to cover damages he caused. A Refund is for work not done but will not cover damages. read more
