    We had to do extensive foundation work on our deceased step motherā€™s home. Rory, Daniel, and all the crew did a great job from start to finish. They made a stressful process as easy as possible and cleaned up their mess when it was done. We also had to have some plumbing repair after the process and the two plumbers, I do not recall their names, were so friendly and professional. Thank you Olshan!

    I am elated over the informative information that Don provided regarding my foundation repair. His meticulous explanation reassured me the return on my investment would reap benefits for as long as we owned our home. Koebe provided a very detailed drawing of the work to be performed and how the issues would be corrected. He took the time to explain every detail and what to expect when the crew arrived to complete the project. Melissa scheduled the work for the following week. I must admit very efficient and timely in accordance with my schedule. I highly recommend Olshan for your foundation repairs. They have incredible financing and a lifetime warranty. If you desire peace of mind knowing that the work on your home will be done the right way; Olshan is the best choice. āœ”ļøWhen the supervisor Angel and his crew: Miguel, Santo, Alex, Miriam, Rolando, Barrigo, Ramira, Trejo, Lima & Santo came out to complete the job it was amazing to see how much pride they displayed in their impeccable work ethic. Angel took measurements before and after the foundation was raised and his calculations were .3 or less within the margin of error. I was very impressed over the work that had been completed. Talk about a hard working crew that got the job done the right way. Thanks a bunch guys!!!Genearo, Mario, Rodolfo & Wilfredo did a superb job digging a 15 foot tunnel under my fouGenerous, The plumbers Alex & Donovan was able to fix the drain pipe that was leaking expeditiously & adequately. These guys worked very well as a team and their concerted effort produced satisfactory results. Kudos to all these guys for exceptional team work. The plumbers test the drain pipe that was leaking to make certain the issue at hand had been rectified. Outstanding job guys.

    Traci Gibbs, Foundation Technician, was able to measure and provide comprehensive estimate on the spot. Once accepted, Melissa seamlessly scheduled the project. Olshan sent Armando and crew to begin Monday. Hard working people. Olshan uses the most up to date technology. This is Thursday afternoon. The job is complete. Melissa accepted final payment. We discussed another home repair project estimate. Traci will be reaching out to me.I highly recommend Olshans professional lifetime warrantied work.

    Mr. Shawn DeShazer came out and did a full inspection. He showed me what he was doing and explained the process as he was doing it. After he was done we sat down and he showed me everything and recommended we wait until we see more signs of needed repair. I felt comfortable with him and the company he represents and appreciated the honesty in my home and will be calling back when more signs show.

    I live in Pearland and my home had foundation problems with my screen enclosure and the front of my home.Michael Betz did an exceptional job explaining the indicators of foundation problems inside our home and with our screen enclosure and how the company would correct the problems. I was sold on Olshanā€™s history, its reviews, its lifetime warranty and the professionalism of Michael.Abel Carbajac, the Forman, met me on time and had his crew start the foundation work; and they worked effectively and efficiently digging up the ground to prepare the raising of the foundation. As I watched the crew work I was impressed with their work ethic as the work required was truly laborious. One of the crew sang ā€œFelice Navidadā€ while digging tirelessly at the foundation sites and I was moved by his joy while working so hard. The following Olshan workers performed their respective tasks admirably and professionally:Jose Copez, Mario Martinez, Nartin Tovar, Carnelo Rameriez, Felipe Guandarrana, and their Superisor, Roland, who ensured the leveling of the home and oversaw the injection of the polyurethane into the screen enclosure foundation.When the job was completed, the crew restored the grounds and cleaned the walkway, bringing the property back to its original state.In conclusion, my wife and I are most pleased with Olshan, its Salesman, its Foreman, its Supervisor, and its entire Crew. Job well done.Mr. & Mrs. Mack

    Iā€™m located in Tomball, TX and we have an older home that was experiencing a water issue coming up through the floor from underneath the foundation. After researching online, I reached out to Olshan Foundation on a Sunday and had a return call first thing on Monday morning to schedule a complimentary consultation. Don Ethridge called me the day before my appointment to confirm and we briefly discussed our issue. Not only did he show up on time, he called ahead of time to schedule an earlier appointment, which worked out perfect for me. Communication with Olshan is excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable and told me right away that we did not have a foundation issue, but instead due to the age of the home, he suspected it was a leak coming from underground plumbing and settling in basically a path of least resistance underneath the foundation. He took the time to look and determine that instead of the cast iron plumbing he initially suspected, that we had looped plumbing, he explained what that meant and suggested that we have someone come do a leak test to confirm where the leak was coming from. He offered a couple of names of companies as well. He also got on a call with my husband, who was unable to be at the appointment, to go over all this with him. He also recommended that we re-plumb with Pex piping in the attic and completely do away with the underground plumbing, which he feels certain is causing the problem, and is something we had wanted to do at some point anyway, we just thought we had a foundation issue and wanted to take care of that first if that had been the case. Don really went above and beyond in providing us his opinion, which is clearly backed by years of experience, and while it wasnā€™t a foundation issue they could help us with, he still took the time and consideration to assist us and when he left we knew exactly what direction to go in with the problem. This complimentary consult by Don was invaluable to us and my opinion of Olshan Foundation is even greater than it was prior to Donā€™s visit. I canā€™t recommend this company any higher for taking a look at your property and getting you set in the right direction!

    Mr. Dave Klotzbuecher was amazing! He was friendly and engaging but most importantly HONEST! He also made the session educational by teaching me what to look for in the future. He invited me to walk around the outside as he evaluated the outside of the house and pointed out what he looked for during his inspection. I will definitely call Olshan for future issues and definitely recommend them to family and friends. Thank you Mr. Dave K!

    We met Don and Coby on a Saturday and theyve been most excellent in both professionalism and very honest. One thing that annoys me most are contractors who you call and they dont follow up until the day of. They have been extremely communicative all the way even the day of! Very happy with their service and knowledge. Thank you guys!

    Had a great experience with Olshan technician Dave Klotzbuecher today! I wanted a professional opinion on my homes foundation after being told by a handyman service that I might have foundation problems. Dave took his time, and kept me informed every step of the way during his visit. Best news of all was that he found no problems! Dave was polite, professional, and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Olshan if you have any concerns about your homes foundation!

  • Review 10 (2024-12-20 - Rating: 5)

    Was recommended Olshanā€™s as ā€œthe only choiceā€ for foundation repair in Houston and was not disappointed! Dave K came out for my complimentary inspection - spent an hour with me checking the whole house, with measurements, to determine that I donā€™t actually need repair at this time. Itā€™s so rare to get an honest answer from repair services! Dave spent a lot of time explaining to me what to watch for and why he was recommending what he was recommending. My appointment was within one week of my first contact - they were right on time and very professional. Their reputation is golden for a reason!

    Updated:Olshan followed through and fixed the problem. The new crew came out and did the work professionally. Kept us informed in the progress and answered any questions we had. I appreciate Olshan standing behind their work. Very pleased with this company and dont mind recommending them to others. I added some new pictures. They also cleaned up after themselves.I have mixed thoughts on this place. They came highly recommended and they are big corporation. So possible we got a bad crew. Either way, they wanted us to give them a review so here it is. We asked for a small job, our patio was sinking cause our previous contractor had built an enclosed room on top of our exterior patio and said it could support it without adding more concrete to thicken the slab. Anyway, they gave a resonable quote. Set a date, they came out. They had a crew of 4 men that did not speak English, not a huge issue. The foreman, was there at the beginning, middle and end. She translated. We asked that at the end of the job they clean up their mess. They cleaned up their tools and extra supplies, but left their food wrappers on the ground. Also during the job we were told that if we raise the slab anymore it could crack. We told them we dont want it to crack. They assured us it wouldnt. Well what would you know, it cracked. They fixed it, but now we have a cracked slab on our enclosed patio. Dont know if I will be using them again. 2 pics to show evidence.

    Great company. Reassuring and clear but overall honest. Foundations and possible issues are hard to self diagnose even as a former concrete foundation builder myself. The specialist John was super friendly and overall extremely knowledgeable and honest. I would recommend trusting these guys as I know my stuff and everything he told me was without doubt 100% true and honest.

  • Review 13 (2023-12-09 - Rating: 5)

    Olshan worked efficiently and effectively! Gilberto and Abel ran a tight crew and kept us up to speed on the progress of the foundation work the whole time. The clean up was the most amazing part, as the only way you knew something happened is new concrete and dust in the garage, but thatā€™s to be expected when you drill 7 holes in the concrete. Shout out to the crew Juan A, Tito Z, Jose L, Martin T, and Saul V - thank you guys. I also want to give Melissa praise in the office as she was our point of contact, answered all the questions regarding scheduling, payment, and any other questions we had. We will definitely recommend Olshan based on our experience!

  • Review 14 (2024-12-30 - Rating: 5)

    Don and Koebe were amazing, they arrived on time. Checked the house and got the measurements. They gave me the good news, no foundation issue, only cosmetic issues. Everything about foundation are in tolerance. They were so honest and professional. Highly recommend.

    I recently met with this Olshan to plan the installation of a drainage system for my yard, which has been retaining water after heavy rains. While the installation hasnā€™t happened yet, I wanted to share my experience so far because it has been outstanding.Joshua, who handled the consultation, was incredibly professional and charismatic. He took the time to understand my specific needs and offered a solution that was clearly tailored to my yard, keeping my best interests in mind. His attention to detail and dedication to finding the best possible solution left me feeling confident about the upcoming installation.Melissa, who coordinated the scheduling, has also been fantastic. She was prompt in reaching out and was able to schedule the installation quickly, ensuring that it would be completed before the next round of storms. Her efficiency and clear communication have made the process smooth and stress-free.

    Koebe, a Certified Structural Technician, arrived promptly to assess the foundation. I was thoroughly impressed with the comprehensive and seamless free assessment. He explained everything clearly with measurements and evidence, and offered practical recommendations. I am very satisfied with the service and would highly recommend Olshan to anyone.

  • Review 17 (2024-03-16 - Rating: 5)

    I canā€™t express how much I appreciate the entire team from beginning to end. They were courteous, professional and they cared. Special thanks to Joseph Bradley for being the one to inspect the house, being my point of contact through out the entire process and made everything stress free. He patiently answered all of my questions and took his time measuring every corner of the house, much more careful compared the previous company. His proactiveness in making sure everything was checked off and constantly updated me is much appreciated. After the initial estimate, he and his manager considered a few more factors and decided that it was best for the house if we only tunneled through from the outside. That reduced the price by a quarter. That goes to shows that they actually care about whatā€™s best for us rather than trying to make the most of the the deal. Repairs were completed in two days and the project manager Cameron was on site the entire time. Everyone worked hard and they left the yard cleaner than when they came. Shout out to Mr. Gilberto And Mr. Abel for for carefully inspecting everything after the house was lifted. Thank you all for taking care of my home. You guys are amazing and I would proudly recommend Olshan to all of my family and friends.

    Dave Klotzbuecher thoroughly inspected my foundation and outside walls. He explained to me what he was observing and how to determine if there was any foundation damage. He also explained that the things I was concerned about were not problems with the foundation and that my foundation was in good shape (thankfully). He suggested that I consider installing a watering system for the foundation, but that it was optional. It was refreshing to have a technician who performed an honest inspection and did not try to sell me unneeded repairs. I highly recommend Olshan to anyone who is concerned about their foundation and needs to have it inspected!!

  • Review 19 (2024-05-20 - Rating: 5)

    After 3years of thinking about it and noticing that my foundation kept sinking slowly every year, I decided to proceed. I wish I had done so sooner as it was cheaper 3 years ago. The problem was not going to fix itself and would just get worse, so it was time to act. On 4/11 team Olshan showed up and started work on 10 supports. It was a big job, and they did it very well. Felt sorry for the crew as we got a ton of rain the day before so it was very nasty hot muddy work. They earned every penny I paid. Crew was: Teo (lead), Luis, Kevin, Gabriel, Miguel, Kevin & Thomas. They did a fantastic job and cleaned up after the job very well. In short, I highly recommend Olshan if you have a foundation issue. Dont be like me and procrastinate, it wont get better nor cheaper so just bite the bullet and get it done.

    Joshua came out to my house today to perform an evaluation and give an estimate. He was extremely professional, honest, and arrived on time. He provided a detailed assessment of what he would do and even what he thinks would not be necessary. I was very pleased with theprocess. I would recommend this company.

    I am a realtor and my clients were buying a home with precious foundation repair by Olshan. We wanted to get it checked out and had very little time to inspect the home.Certified Structural Technician ā€œShannon Gibbsā€ went above and beyond to answer all my questions and to squeeze me in his already busy day to inspect so we felt good about my buyers offer.I could tell he truly cared and knew what he was doing. A trustworthy & helpful employee!

    Very thorough, professional, and honest assessment of our homeā€™s foundation by Tracy Gibbs. She was friendly, on time, and very thorough.

    Olshan did a great job fixing my home foundation. After the hurricane, and drought afterwards caused my foundation to quickly deteriorate. Olshan was able to come and evacuate the cause and offer a solution. David did a great job presenting the plan and get us on schedule before more damage occurred to the homes structure. Tito Z, Santos S., Alex S, Jason, B, Roland G, and Hermes F. All did a great job, they were respectful and quickly got my doors closing again. They cleaned up, and communicated clearly on what they were doing. Thank you for giving me the peace of mind.

    I am very pleased with the entire repairing process, very organized and experienced crew, did not damage anything in our tiny working space. Everybody involved in the process were super nice and really worked all they can to support and make sure the project well done. Melissa, Project Manager Daniel, Site Manager Ngel are really nice and professional. Foundation repair was scary before we started it, but very happy after we got it fixed all because of Olshan crews great work. It is more expensive among all companies I quoted, but I think we paid what we got.

    We called Olshan to come give us an estimate for foundation repairs. John came by and inspected our home thoroughly. He explained everything step by step, and informed us that we didnā€™t need foundation work done at this time. He provided us with what to look for down the road that may signal us needing to have them back out to reinspect, but that our homeā€™s foundation was in good shape at this time. I really appreciate the honesty, as that is not something you find as often when calling out contractors. I feel that a lot of foundation companies would have just gave us a bid and performed unnecessary work just to take our money. Based off our experience with John, I would highly recommend giving Olshan a call.

    I had a great experience with Shawn DeShazer and Chris Coppin. I was expecting one inspector and both of these guys arrived and worked together to provide a complete report of the foundation. They were professional and polite. I will call them every time a foundation inspection is needed.

    I was very impressed with the job, and the time it took to get done. The crew were very hard workers. They did a good job on the clean up. I had the foundation work done.

    I want to say how pleased I am with the team at Olshan Foundation Solutions Houston. I work at a local retail establishment and needed their help fast. I was travelling in Houston from out of town and needed a company out to provide insight and an estimate for work we need done to our business. Paul H. and Melissa C. were amazingly accommodating with my predicament. I had to travel the next day and they found a way to fit me in. I was happy to pay the small fee to get them out the same day. If the treatment I received was any indication of the service in the future, I will have no problem giving them the work. I look forward to dealing with Melissa and Paul in the future.Best regardsAndy

    Highly recommended. Ā Our tract house slab was laid in 1977, and the underlying Texas gumbo (clay) settled for years without remediation. Ā So we had cracking in the chimney, walls, and floors and misaligned doors until we finally decided to choose Olshan to level the entire perimeter of the slab. Ā  We interviewed 3-4 different reputable foundation companies and Olshan was not the cheapest, but they impressed us with their thoroughness, Ā longevity, and their word-of-mouth reputation amongst friends and customers. Ā The Olshan crew (named below*) did an outstanding job. They arrived promptly, worked diligently, and were totally professional in their work ethic. Ā We especially appreciated their attention to detail and doing the work thoroughly and correctly with exemplary clean-up. Ā *Note: Ā Our Olshan crew included Bill Andrade, Santos Mainor, Santos M. Kelvin, Melchor Luis, Martin Sanchez, Francisco Aguayo, and Gilbert Gil.

Would definitely recommend to anyone.

    I called Olshan because I had some concerns about my foundation. Jessica was able to help me get on their schedule quickly and at a time that was convenient for me. On the day of the appointment, Trey called ahead of time to let me know he was on his way. When he arrived he was courteous and professional. He explained to me what he was going to do then set about it, surveying the outside of my house first and then going room to room inside as well. Once he was done he told me he had good news for me. He sat down with me and showed me the map he had drawn on his tablet and the measurements he had taken, and that at this time the numbers did not warrant any foundation repair. He made my day! He also gave me some tips on protecting my foundation to keep from needing any repairs. (All for free!)I canā€™t say enough how much I appreciate Olshan and Trey for being honest and professional. I whole-heartedly recommend them to anyone who is concerned that they may need foundation repairs.

    We built a 1200 sq ft metal building next to a small pecan tree. In 3 years the tree roots spread under one corner of our building and lowered it up to 2 inches. Olshan came in with their technology. They installed 8 piers. By the end of the same day the floor was level. The cracks on the foundation had closed and all doors closed without sticking. The crew led by Amando restored everything to the point that you didnā€™t know they had been there. Iā€™m waiting on my lifetime guarantee certificate shortly. Outstanding job.

    The crown jewel in our commercial property portfolio is a former Fire Station built in the 1940s. The building characteristics that give it its retained charm also make it challenging to maintain. After a three year long troubleshooting process involving multiple trade professionals and a half-dozen foundation companies failing to yield a permanent solution or at least an accurate diagnostic for our problems, I asked Paul Howland if he would come look at one of my buildings. I knew him socially and from his truck that he worked for Olshan.His caveat that he wont be the cheapest was reassuring more than off-putting. We want best value, not best price, but above all wanted to understand what was causing our many issues there and how to fix them. His site visit with my building manager and the tenant representative was both personable and professional. His ability to take complex structural elements and explain them in an easy to understand way that leaves you feeling empowered rather than demeaned or undereducated is a fantastic quality in a sales professional. At the end of our meeting, he had earned our trust and given us new hope we had a potential path to permanent solutions. I found the bid to be thoughtfully prepared, comprehensive and informative, and while in the higher end of the range we anticipated based on previous work there and other foundation work across our portfolio of properties, it has been worth every dollar spent. Without question.The supportive infrastructure at Olshan kept us timely and thoroughly informed. They prepared us, so that we could prepare the tenant, for the full scope of work and completed it on schedule and within the given window, even when a necessary change order arose within our project.They keep the site clean and presentable at all times, and went so far as to replant a shrub in a bucket to keep it healthy while they completed the job and then replanted it at completion. They kept us informed throughout and answered the few questions I had thoroughly and with good information that fit what I had googled myself previously.As a building owner, I could not ask for more than:Accurate and thorough bid and project timelineProfessional and personal attention from every person we interacted with throughout the organization, to the professionals in the actual holes to the white hats/project leaders.Respect for our time, property, and dollar.Peace of mind a successful outcome matters to Olshan as much as it does to me. I better understand today why the brand and its people have the reputation they do. That is worth whatever premium they require over their competitors because it will earn out exponentially.We wanted to recognize everyone who worked on our project, and here is the list we were given. My thanks to all of you. You represented yourselves and Olshan with excellence at every step.Paul H.Melissa K.Gilberto GJorgeRolandJoseā€™ RomeroJoseā€™ RamosJoseā€™ PadillaAlfredo ARafael GHector PinedaElmerSantos MJorge G

    After shopping around for a reliable foundation company in Sugar Land, we decided to use Olshan. From free evaluation to foundation fixed, this whole process went smoothly and was time efficient. Even though it was more expensive compared with other competitors, you get what you pay for through their exceptional customer service and expertise. I thank John and his crew for doing this amazing job. I also want to thank Joseph and Melissa for helping me with the process.

He took the time to answer all my questions and gave me great advice about getting gutters installed and the importance of them. He also provided me with a pamphlet with all the companys information and recommendations, and warrantys that will be covered if we decide to go with them. Thank you Diego for helping me better understand everything about my home. You are appreciated.

    Just wanted to say we are happy with our foundation repair and the epoxy on the corners of our home. They even removed the concrete chips from the sides where the builder tried to smooth out for cosmetic reasons. Well it did not look good at all so the crew removed most of it whilst the made repairs to or foundation. They diligently saw the whole process through completion and had weather challenges but in the end it wears a job well done. They came back to do the corners and it really looks great now. We did boy get the names of everyone but we want to thank Ramiro, Francisco and Jerry. They cleaned up and returned everything to almost like before! Now on to landscaping!

    We met with Chris, who was very friendly and professional. After looking at the cracked bricks and foundation on our house, he said that it was just settling and not a foundation problem.He took measurements inside of the house that we can use to check in a year to determine if anything has changed.When a company demonstrates that they are not just trying to get an easy sale, it makes me trust them more when they say work is needed.We will use Olshan if we ever need foundation repair done! I recommend giving them a call!

    We reached out to Olshan to provide us an estimate for fixing our foundation. Don Ethridge and Dave came over to assess and they did a fabulous job, truly exceptional; very detail oriented technicians who really know what they are doing. They frankly said that there is no problem with the foundation and provided us free recommendations on what needs to fixed. In our case, they recommended fixing the windows and use a handyman as there was nothing wrong with the foundation. I would strongly recommend them to my friends and colleagues.

    We called Olshan for a foundation review and quote if service was required. With a 57 year old home, we had concerns. Olshan had been referred to us by miltople sources. From first contact, and with Olshan asigning Koebe to come out for the foundation check/review, the entire process was easy, reconfirming along the way. Koebe was friendly, diligent, answered our questions patiently, showed us what he was doing and explaining all. Luckily, for us, our foundation does not need any work, but if it did we are confident that Olshan would be our choice. They, especially Koebe, gave us a level of trust and confidence that can be hard these days. We will refer them both to everyone. Thank you Koebe and Olshans!

    We had poly-lift service on the front sidewalk of our historic home in Caldwell, TX.

    Good day All, I like to compare costs and check on reviews for the best possible services providers across the board in the market when it comes to repairs to be done at the house. From 4 companies we checked, Olshan by far was the most cost efficient, professional, and complete package by keeping up their word to complete the project. We lifted our home and installed 33 piles/stakes to stabilize the house. We also had some polyurethane injected (16 - 17 holes) in the floor to help stabilize making this the best NON-invasive option available for me and my family. Would like to shout out the following workers: Roland G, Angel B, Jose Romero, Iverson, Jose Euceda, Kelvin Santos, Hector Pineda, Amador Uvaldo, Rodrigo Galvan, Jorge Garcia, Jose P.E., Jerson, and Alex! Their Supervisors (Roland Garcia, Jorge Garcia, and Alex) were very courteous, responsible, and took the time to explain what was being done. Fantastic job gentlemen and thank you! Olshan is not the cheapest, but definitely the best in the market with great warranties! If you want a permanent fix, Olshan is your best choice, we highly recommend them for your next project needs!

    For the foundation repairs at my house I got quotes from various contractors. The pricing varied significantly among them. However, I chose not to go just with lowest price but also by the ones who offered lifetime warranty for their services. Olshan was the chosen one. All the staff was professional and clearly had been trained. There was supervision every day the work took place. As messy as the work was, the crew cleaned up the grounds before leaving, and items damaged during the intense work were repaired. Most notably I received answers to my many questions and got educated in this topic. A special thanks to Mr Armando Alejandro Sanchez for his following up and being in the details along the work. I recommend this contractor for foundation repairs.

    We werent sure if we had a foundation problem, but I called Olshan and asked if someone could come out and look at it. Within a few days a very nice lady came out and looked at the area were having trouble with. When she walked up she said she didnt see any problems. We asked her to come to our back yard where we have a sidewalk sinking. Luckily, she said the problem was with the black soil we have and 2 large oak trees that are sucking all the moisture out of the soil. Big problem since we havent had any rain for a month! Just thankful for Olshan coming out and confirming it wasnt the foundation!

    Olshan has been very cooperative to work with, so far. We are in the house-buying process and there is a possible concern with the drainage and crawl space of the potential new home. This is a beautiful and historic home in Woodland Heights. Jessica and Sky have been so accommodating during the process of scheduling someone to come out to do an assessment on the property so that we will know how to proceed. We are looking forward to meeting Diego tomorrow and gaining some insight into how and remediate the problem. Thank you for helping to put our minds at ease, Jessica and Sky!

  • Review 136 (2023-09-09 - Rating: 5)

    I chose Olshanā€™s to repair my house foundation because of their extensive experience, Ryanā€™s honesty and careful explanations and their community reviews. Melissa was a tremendous help to get everything scheduled and also to answer my questions. Amando and Melanie were very professional and got the job completed ahead of schedule. Many, many thanks to the Olshanā€™s crew to get the tunnels dug, pilings placed, lifted and then filling in the tunnels. The final result of their clean up was incredible. They very carefully put my landscaping back in place so that it looks exactly the same as before they started digging. I highly recommend Olshanā€™s for foundation work and other projects without hesitation. They are great.

    Henry Vilchis and his team showed up at the expected time. He was very polite in his introduction. We conversed and he walked me through the process of what him and his team would be performing. He was very thorough and left nothing out. His team performed flawlessly!!! They installed the foundation supports with bare minimal ground disturbances. When the job was complete we did a final walk through and I was more than satisfied with the quality and care that him and his team did with the job. Its as though they were never here. If you need foundation repairs.... Olshan Foundations is the place to go and Henry and his team is who I would want doing it!

    Olshan did a lift for us after drought of 2011. Scariest thing we had ever committed to. Then new lift and adjustment after drought of 2023. Both times our home was left looking like the workers had never been there. Dramatic difference in floor & porch level & interior door opening & closing.Many thanks to Tracy Gibbs who assessed work needed. Angel & his crew Miguel, Lima, Santo, Rolando, Alejandro were magnificent. Kept us informed all through the process and went far beyond our expectations. Thank you, Daniel Garcia, Roland, and the foam crew.Melissa and the office staff were always gracious. Nice to do business with Melissa & the other long-term employees of Olshans. Thatā€™s a major factor in choosing who we like to do business with.Thanks to Abel for bringing out dirt to level high and lows around the foundation. NICE, FINISHING TOUCH!!!J&D Knox New Caney TX

    Solid thats the word that comes to mind, from Shannon the sales guy to all the workers getting dirty. Great communication, clean when coming into the house to look for the smallest of cracks and shifts, and at cleaning after themselves when they leave. If I had to give them one criticism and it might just be nit picky because the work got postponed for a month or so its that I wouldve liked a pre-work day visit that properly marked the old deck planks that were needing to get removed but thats really it for me.Totally recommendable, and I am going to call the back for other work around the house, my team was supervised by Gilberto Gill and his foreman Abel Carbajal along with his guys: Mario Martinez, Martin Tovar, Jose Lopez, Carmelo Rameriez, Gerson Canales, and Ralphe Gutierrez.Solid 5

    Don arrived promptly at our scheduled time. He was very knowledgeable and professional. He did a thorough and detailed evaluation of my house. He found no issues that required foundation repair, which was contrary to what some other companies recommended. Don explained that the cause of the flooring issues that concerned us were not caused by foundation movement. He said that our floorings level was within an acceptable range and that installing piers would create issues where none existed now. I greatly appreciate Dons honesty and forthrightness, and highly recommend him.

    Great experience start to finish. Vanessa was great getting all the visits scheduled (initial inspection, pre-work plumbing leak test, actual repair, and the post-work leak test). The crew led by Jorge Garcia was on-time and on-task. The whole crew, Jose Romero, Rafael Gutierrez, Jose Euceda, Santos Miraranda, and Erick Orellana, were hard workers. The job included eight exterior piers and two interior that were accessed via tunneling. The city inspector had no problem with the work and even said that we ...picked a real good company... The backfill/restoration was great. You really couldnt tell that anyone had been there. The post-leak inspection was conducted by Olshan plumber Alex Guzman. He was very professional, and completed the test quickly. Luckily for us, no leaks were found. All in all a very good experience. Olshan gets our highest rating!

As I have no experience with foundation issues or remedies, I was hoping for good news but expecting bad. After seeing the problem, he assured me it was an easy fix and I could take care of it simply.

    Olshan responded to my request for a quote quickly and scheduled an appointment within 3 business days. Don gladly arrived early and introduced himself in a business like manner. He explained thoroughly what he would be do and asked permission before starting. When he had completed the inspection Don then put a quote together and explained the work he felt needed to be done. Don explained the process and showed the pamphlet that further explained the cable-lock system as well as how it was done. I felt complete informed by the time Don left and felt no pressure to lock myself into a contract immediately The whole process has been a breath of fresh air.
