    Most foundation people in comparison give Carneys and drug dealers a good image. Check out the guy who advertises on 105.3 . Forget the name of the company but was next to his company at several Home and Garden Shows and he is a straight shooter that uses all the popular methods; doesnt push the one or two that he is familiar with. I'll think of his company name and repost later.

    I couldn't agree more with David on this, some of them can be a shifty bunch. Better check with these guys first.

    Yes; All Pro

    Just remember; the "repair" that fixes the problem today. May become the "problem" once the soil changes state in the fall.

    Brown Foundation Repair is just down the street from me, and has been around a long time. I think 30 + years, so put them on the list also.

    Cruise was great, but return not so great. All of us have the trots, son threw up, this morning at 4:00 am middle daughter had intense neck muscle spasm, took her to hospital where they pretty much numbed her body and sent her home, then at 6:30 am mother in law had to go to hospital too. Tried to get them to give me a 2 for 1 but no luck. Hope the rest of the day is quiet.

    ps - I know PVC pipe even better than I know concrete.

    Jim;
    Before I did the foundation work on my house I pretty much went to school on the various methods, ie spread footings, pressed piles. screw anchors, dug and drilled piers, etc. I finally settled on one because of the A & M report on their product and how it held up. PM me and I will give you a contact. They are not cheap, but cheap foundation work can become very expensive.
