"Sign today to get an additional x% discount" "My boss won't like this but...." "Oh oops I forgot to add this one $10,000 piece to your invoice, the price we've been discussing for 1/2 hour is now 50% higher" "Well I guess I could give you the friends and family discount..." etc etc Every time I said no to their "absolute lowest price they can do," they came back with another "lowest price" with some kind of discount or deal that they "shouldn't do, but can make an exception for..." I've read online that they do excellent work, but all they wanted to talk about was their competitors. If I had a nickel for every time I heard about "the other guys," I could possibly afford their newest "absolute best price we can do." Not a fan. Just tell me the price, tell me what you do, and cut the gimmicks.

I asked Tar Heel to come by and make a determination to mitigate the problem. Before Colin arrived, I had a good sense of what was needed. I had an issue with a basement problem in a former house, so I was prepared for any "oversell." Oh, and my wife had over 36 years in the building industry. Colin provided a very detailed findings and options for correcting the water problem. We were both happy with the proposal and will be moving forward.

We filed a board complaint in April 2026 and I can only hope they can stop him from leaving anyone else in the same situation he's left us in. He didn't meet any deadlines, was in breach of both mine and the banks contract. He was fired. A structural repair company that flat out says "you paid for repairs, you don't pay for the work to be up to code" says a lot.

Based on my experience, any proactive issues you can take to avoid any water issues is money well spent. I love how they work with you to stay in your budget but help you to track issues you may see in the future. In our situation, we have a gutter issue that showed up when we had the recent monsoon rain. We're going to fix our gutters (clean them out) but will track a second issue (we also have an issue with the volume of our 2nd floor gutter pours onto our garage roof as the 2nd floor and the garage roof gutter handle the same volume of water which means that if we max out the 2nd floor gutter, the garage roof gutter will be overflowing). They also pointed out that they can fix issues with our porch setting (a common issue given that NC builder often throw all their trash under the porch then bury the trash when they finish their construction). There is an easy fix for that issue. Also, they can fix an issue with our cement driveway slab tilting though it is more expensive given the size of the slab. We'll address this later.

We knew the project was going to be challenging. However, we found a partner in Foundation Doctor, who was up for the challenge. We found them to be easy to work with as we were working out the bids/pricing, determining the differences between their proposal and the other 2 companies(nationally owned and WAY MORE costly). Michael was a PLEASURE to work with. Once onsite, Mason did an outstanding job coordinating the crew. His ability to keep everyone aligned and ensure smooth execution made a noticeable difference in the project's success. Mason demonstrated exceptional leadership throughout, communicating along the way regarding updates and issues found. Mason not only coordinated the crew with precision, ensuring tasks were completed efficiently and with a sense of urgency, but also guided the team through significant challenges posed by hard, rocky soil. Their proactive problem-solving and adaptability kept the project moving forward without delays. Mason's commitment to delivering top-quality work was evident in every detail, and their focus on excellence ensured our expectations were exceeded. Overall, Mason's efforts, along with "Q" showing up to give this project a shot of energy, had a direct impact on getting us across the finish line, maintaining high standards, and creating a positive experience for us, making them invaluable contributors to this project's success. I/we have no doubt we will recommend their services for anyone needing results bordering on "miracle" status. I'm sure we will sleep a little easier at night knowing our home is much safer thanks to Michael, Stephen, Jackie, Mason, Q, and the other superstars!

We got free quotes from several of these foundation companies for some work we need done. While we…read moreended up deciding to go with a locally owned company, I have to say, inspector / salesman, Kent Tysinger of '58 Foundations & Waterproofing, was thorough, knowledgeable, honest, and BY FAR the most professional and courteous of any of the people we've had out from any of the bigger, national chains. I was impressed by the fact that he gave us a few different options of what could be done, and explained the pros and cons of each, rather than just fearmongering and pushing the most expensive one with all the bells and whistles. '58's quote was definitely higher than the local companies, but generally on-par, if not a little lower than, their big national peers. And true to the promise they make on their website, they didn't do any kind of price matching or marketing gimmicks; they just gave me the price. '58 was our 2nd choice behind who we decided to go with (out of 6, yes SIX separate inspections/quotes), and I would definitely use them for other work, should I need it down the line.
