    We had Patrik and crew come to our house to do some work last month. We had a cement patio with a void under it that they poly jacked and we also had them install a sump pump in the basement. They came on time as promised and were quick, cleaned up after they were done and even put all the landscape rock back and replanted grass in the backyard where they dug the pipe for the sump pump. Very impressed with their work and professionalism!

    We had about 4 different companys come out to the house to help resolve our water issues. Every one of these companys had a different reason for why our basement kept flooding which then resulted in their most expensive repair packages. Patrick at Windler Foundation Repair spent a lot of time walking through potential root causes and how to address each. Instead of selling us his most expensive fix, he kept cost in mind and suggested fixing some of smaller problem areas first before going forward with a full interior draining system. We found later out that our egress and window wells werent built to code so addressing this first made the most sense to us. The guys at Windler did a great job with installation and I couldnt be happier with the new window wells. Although it hasnt rained a lot since our last event, if these wells were the cause of the flooding before, they wont be anymore. This was was my first time using Windler and can definitely say I will continue to use them in the future. Highly recommend!

    We recently had Windler Foundation Repair level our house and were very happy with the results. The crew that worked on our house worked their tails off. The part of the house that needed lifting was where the electrical/gas/plumbing lines entered the house so the crew had to do a lot of manual digging. They accomplished this efficiently and quickly without disturbing the lines.

    I have been in property management and construction for 15 years. I have met with every foundation company from Topeka to KC. I’ve had multiple properties over the years I’ve rehabbed to sell and others I’ve held that needed foundation corrections. All I can say is this about Windler. They are brilliant. I’ve spent hours researching foundation repair methods and that side of the business to protect mine. Windler uses the latest technology, doesn’t oversell and delivers on time consistently. They are brief, brilliant and gone. They back their work with a 30 year warranty. I’ve used them twice in the last 90 days on 2 different properties. They don’t miss. From egress windows to foundation piering to wall reinforcement/support… I’ve bought all aforementioned from them. Take it from a guy who’s paid and been disappointed before. Windler is 100% best in the business.

    Chris and his team did an incredible job on our home. They arrived on time, finished slightly ahead of schedule, did excellent work, used high-quality materials, and came in slightly under budget. Chris was patient with all our questions throughout the process, and he and his crew got a huge amount of work done in a short amount of time. We could not be happier with our decision to use Windler Foundation Repair Systems and will gladly recommend them to anyone we know.

    I have worked with Chris and his team on several homes and referred him on countless others. He always gets the job done in the time he said and for a reasonable price. If any surprises arise in the job (as they often do with foundation work) he communicates clearly and let’s me decide before moving forward. I have never had any issues or call backs on a project he works on. He doesn’t try to sell extra beyond what’s necessary so I always know his recommendation is the best solution. Sometimes he is cheaper than the competition and sometimes he charges more, but either way I can be confident that the price difference is because he actually knows what he’s doing.

    I won’t work with anyone else. Don’t let the Thrashers of the world fool you: Expertise plus local roots is an unbeatable combination when you’re talking soil and weather. Patrik and his teams have both, and the out-of-town companies only have the experience, if that. I’ve had Windler lift two corners of my house and build a retaining wall. There were a few issues as is to be expected — the work is hard and complicated. But every time, Patrik made sure the result was better than anticipated. I need another retaining wall and one more low spot in the foundation lifted, and they’ll get the work. Amazing company.

    We have had the opportunity to work with Chris Windler on several different projects. He is well known in the Lawrence area for being a trusted Foundation Repair Expert. I look forward to working with Chris over the next several years. Keep doing what you are doing Chris- We appreciate your straight forward approach. -Nate

    We were very impressed with the professionalism and the work completed by Windler Foundation. The repair was completed in a timely fashion. Patrick explained the problem and had a solution. We would recommend them and would not be afraid to use them again if needed.

    We used pinpoint for 3 different days when we needed taxi service. Tamas was fabulous. He was on time, knowledgeable and pleasant. We could not have asked for more. We very highly recommend him and his company!

    Chris was wonderful to work with. He was able to quickly get us into his schedule and took care of a problem that others were unable to fix. He is professional, knowledgeable, and skilled. We will be recommending him to anyone we know who needs foundation work!

    Have used this company on two separate occasions. Both times, they have gone above and beyond in customer service, professionalism, and quality of work.Chris is a straight shooter and will give you more than enough information to make an informed decision.You will not find a better Company, guaranteed.

    Chris is very knowledgable and professional. Quickly responded to our request and even though he didnt take the job he assessed our situation and got us moving in the right direction with a different specialist.

    As a real estate agent, I’ve worked with Windler Construction on multiple homes and they never cease to amaze me! Always easy to get a hold of, honest with their recommendations and great at explaining the more technical aspects to laypeople. Plus, their construction is top notch and gets done as quickly as promised. I will continue to hire and recommend this company to my peers!

  • Review 22 (2023-08-17 - Rating: 5)

    I don’t normally leave a lot of reviews. After the experience I had purchasing a home, going through the trials and tribulations of litigation with the seller over issues with the foundation and it’s condition, and the experience I had with Chris as a foundation specialist, I felt obligated to leave a review.Due to legal reasons I cannot delve into the litigation issues, but what I can say is that through my 3 year ordeal I consulted with 8 or 9 various companies to gather bids and proposals/solutions to fix very extensive water intrusion issues and structural issues that were said to have been fixed.I also commissioned a structural engineer’s report on the condition of the foundation and the correct solutions to remedy the issues experienced versus the current solutions employed by previous contractors versus other proposals/solutions. I consider myself an amateur foundation specialist and semi-professional legal authority on real estate/foundation code/law at this point!Chris was one of the first contractors I called randomly using Google. He came over and alerted me to many more issues than I was first aware of. I had been experiencing water issues, but he also had concerns regarding the integrity of the existing beams that had been installed.He suggested I get a structural engineer’s report (not my realtor/supposed advocate) and was the first person to really be an advocate for me as the homeowner. I didn’t feel like a dollar sign, or just another bid, as was the feeling from several of the companies.This industry and type of request for proposal can be difficult for homeowners. Contractors, realtors, real estate attorneys, inspectors, appraisers, etc, all depend on business from each other, and are often not terribly willing to go too far out on a limb for homeowners and potentially “cross” another in the industry.As a foundation repair “customer”, I represent what is probably a one-time sale in the course of a 20 year period (hopefully longer!), to a foundation contractor. A realtor or another contractor/homebuilder might provide a whole season’s work through referrals, ongoing projects, etc., to a foundation contractor. You can see the dilemma and understand how some decisions could be made by some foundation specialists, and where their loyalties could easily lie. It’s basic economics in when it’s purely about $.I must say that out of the 9 companies I received bids from, Chris was 1 of 2 companies I felt comfortable with. Chris went above and beyond. He knew I may not be a sale for him within that year, understanding my legal situation and financing issues due to pending legal costs.Chris allowed me to keep in touch with him throughout my 3 year legal ordeal. He did not write me off as a nuisance, or someone who would not be paying off in terms of his time invested vs potential landing of my business whenever a potential solution was to be reached with my property. He was somewhat of an advisor to me and was willing to do as much or as little as I needed, knowing my situation and the financial position I was in throughout those 3 years.As far as Chris and his crew’s demeanor and attitude, they were a pleasure to have on my property for the duration of the project, which was spot-on in terms of time estimates and cost estimates. They were respectful of my property and ensured everything was done within the bid/proposal.The work was done in March, and to this date I have had no additional water intrusion or foundation movement. He corrected all the issues and then some. Everything was within/exceeding engineer specifications in terms of beam tolerance, correct beam-axis installation, header installation, melrol/waterproofing, drain tile, etc. I am very pleased with the outcome. I have waited several months to leave a review just in case there were issues down the road, but at this point I feel incredibly comfortable leaving a stellar review for Windler Construction.
