CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
We had a wonderful experience with Falcone the entire way through the process. They did a thorough inspection of our crawl space and provided a few different options, taking the time to walk through and explain each.
Christopher came out to do an inspection for a house that I have under contract. I had some concerns about the crawl space, and he was very thorough in his inspection and took his time in explaining what he had found and answered any questions I had. Very knowledgeable, personable, and would highly recommend!

It depends on the extent and nature of the foundation issue. Some minor problems can be resolved with less invasive methods like crack sealing, epoxy injections, or installing additional supports. However, more severe issues may require significant repairs, such as underpinning or foundation replacement. Just remember, the earlier you catch and address the issues, the better.
