They came up with a better plan and followed through ahead of schedule and on budget. I could not recommend this team of people more.

"Nicolas, Leawood
"

"Margaret, Mission
"

Foundation work is expensive. It takes highly skilled crews, large equipment, time, planning, etc. I priced many companies over many years and Foundation 1 offered an excellent price point for the job. Don't do what I initially did and pay some guy in a pick-up to install a couple of wall braces. It will just cost that much more later when you have the job done correctly.

"Brian, Lenexa, KS
"

Foundation 1 sent a great team out to my residence to replace a failed sump system and solve some drainage issues.

"Joseph, Overland Park
"

They exceeded the scope of work and were done on time. I was allowed to approve each stage of the process and felt like I was given excellent service.

"George, Excelsior Springs
"

Put it off too long, and too many sleepless nights squeegeeing water into my inadequate existing sump pump to keep it from ruining my finished living space and fearing the worst when the rains came. I'm very pleased with the results and the cost.

"Jeffrey, Independence
"

I cannot tell you how exciting it is to look out and see no water running over my front sidewalk. I was able to remove the snow without it icing over for the first time in years. This is all because of your firm.

"Michelle, Kansas City
"

We are glad that we went with this company and would recommend them to others needing a waterproofing solution. Customer service also responsive and efficient.

"Alice, Independence
"

The crew that did the work were a quality bunch. The crew chief kept me informed of their progress and actually finished one day early.

"

F1 did a very good job. They arrived as scheduled, did the work as promised, cleaned up before departing. I would recommend them.

The project spanned 5 days and the project manager explained what work would be performed daily. The end result far exceeded by expectations.

"Mitch, Gladstone
"

As an investor I always add an egress window to the homes I buy. It instantly adds more value to the home than the initial investment. Its a no-brainer for me and Foundation 1 is my go to contractor.

"Chris, Olathe
"

I can’t believe how much light the window lets in. The room actually feel larger than before. Foundation 1 did a great job and would definitely refer them or use them again.

"Nicolas, Leawood
"

I was worried about losing landscaping I had recently planted and they took into consideration the aesthetics of how the area would look after the job was done. I was very happy with how they cared for the plants and ensured the landscaping looked better when they left.

"Geoff, Parkville
"

The quality of the workmanship was excellent. They left my basement much cleaner than they found it.

"Linda, Lee’s Summit
"

The estimator, the crew, and the office staff couldn't have been more helpful and informative in the explanation and execution of the work. Very professional service from all involved.
