Our Foundation Repair Services

Cracks, settling, and shifting foundations don’t fix themselves. We provide expert repair solutions that restore stability and protect your home for the long haul.

Uneven concrete lowers safety and appearance. Our leveling services lift and restore sidewalks, patios, and driveways, saving you time and money over replacement.

Moisture problems in your crawl space spread through your whole home. Our encapsulation systems seal and protect the space, reducing damage and improving air quality.

Water management is critical for home protection. Our gutter systems efficiently divert water away, preventing foundation issues, erosion, and basement flooding.

Rotting or damaged wood threatens your home’s structural integrity. We restore beams, joists, and supports to their full strength and safeguard against future decay.

Water intrusion ruins basements quickly. Our waterproofing systems stop leaks, control groundwater, and give you a dry, protected space you can trust.

We had APS lift a realign the slab around our pool. Every staff member was courteous and professional. APS maintained excellent lines of communication and they did what they said they would do when they scheduled to do it. The techs were great and left the work clean. A++

I had three teams at my home, one installing gutters, another repairing the garage door lift and a third team worked on filling the voids underneath my driveway along with leveling and filling the cracks in the drive. I am impressed with the foam that was used for leveling the drive. Each person was respectful and professional. The quality of work was topnotch and I would gladly recommend APS Foundation for your projects.

I got a few estimates before deciding on APS. Jason (Design Specialist) is very knowledgeable. He has a lot of foundation experience, and a lot of people experience and it shows. There was no pressure about starting the project. That was a unique feature in comparison to the other companies I received quotes from, and the reason I went with APS. Ramiro (Job Foreman), and his crew Jose and Arturo came here and knocked it out in 3 days in the middle of August. Crawl Space clean out, encapsulation, perimeter drains, floor supports, the works. They don't mess around. They cleaned up after themselves too. Despite the misery of the August heat, they were very polite and professional. Everyone involved was. I highly recommend APS for crawl space repair.

Owner's reply
Windy, thank you for the detailed writeup. Jason takes the no pressure approach seriously, and Ramiro, Jose, and Arturo knocked out a full crawl space job in August heat without cutting corners on the cleanup. We will make sure all four of them see this. 🙌

William Robertson was our first interface with APS and Wow what a great first impression of the company. William provided a very detailed overview of the condition of our crawl space. By the way, it was not a gloom and doom overview. William provided a detailed summary of his recommendations of what we needed. Even when we would ask about more expensive options, he would give us an overview of how that would benefit our need or state that it was not necessary for the condition of our crawl space at the time. William continued to stay in contact with us throughout the installation of encapsulation and followed up upon completion. The installation crew and William were very professional throughout the process. Job well done and would recommend APS to my friends. As a side note, the installation was much cheaper than competitors.

Owner's reply
Thank you Jimmy, this is a great writeup. William is big on giving people the honest picture rather than the scary one, and it's good to hear that came through from the first visit all the way past completion. 🙏

Know What to Expect

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do Decatur homes experience foundation damage?

Decatur’s clay-rich soil expands and contracts with moisture, placing pressure on home foundations. Over time, this movement can cause cracking, settling, or uneven floors—especially during wet or dry seasons.

Most repairs take 1 to 3 days, depending on the severity of the damage. During your free inspection, we provide a custom timeline so you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Yes, permits are required for structural work. APS handles all permitting in Decatur, ensuring your project complies with local codes and inspection requirements.

Yes. Many solutions, including crawl space and slab repair, come with lifetime transferable warranties—offering long-term peace of mind for Decatur homeowners.

Tree roots can affect foundations by drawing moisture out of the soil, causing it to shrink and settle unevenly. In other cases, roots can grow close to or under the foundation, displacing soil and exerting pressure that leads to cracks, shifting, or uneven floors. Proper tree placement and root barriers help reduce risks.

  • Slab foundation repair typically involves stabilizing or lifting the concrete slab with piers, slabjacking, or polyurethane foam injection.

  • Basement foundation repair often requires reinforcing or straightening walls with anchors, braces, or carbon fiber strips, along with waterproofing to manage leaks.
    The main difference is that basements require both structural reinforcement and water management, while slabs focus more on lifting and soil stabilization.

Yes. Pier and beam foundations usually require adjusting, repairing, or replacing piers and beams, as well as fixing crawl space supports. Concrete slab foundations are repaired with methods like piers, mudjacking, or foam injection. While both aim to stabilize the home, the techniques differ based on the foundation design.
