Expert Foundation Repair Near Me in Huntsville, AL

SouthernDry offers basement waterproofing, crawl space restoration & foundation repair in Huntsville, AL

basement wall foundation repair in huntsvilleIf you’re a homeowner in the Huntsville, Alabama area and suspect that you might have foundation trouble, you’re not alone. All homes tend to settle over time, and the soil and groundwater conditions in the Huntsville region can put stress on any foundation.

Eroding soil and the effects of water build up (known as “hydrostatic pressure”) can cause parts of your foundation to drift out of alignment and gradually lose their load-bearing capacity. When this happens, foundation problems can show up in one or more common ways.

6 common foundation problems we encounter in Huntsville, AL

  • Floors that begin to squeak or feel “spongy” to the step
  • Windows or doors that get sticky and hard to open
  • Interior finish materials that start to crack or separate, especially where surfaces join
  • Concrete slabs that crack, tilt, or separate
  • Bowed basement walls
  • Unwanted moisture collecting in your crawl space or basement

If you see any combination of these signs, you’ll likely have a lot of questions, not to mention anxiety about the safety of your home.

To protect your investment, and your loved ones, you’re going to want honest and simple answers about what’s happening and what your options are. This residential foundation repair guide will tell you exactly what you need to know to get your foundation back in top shape.

Friendly Advice from your Local Foundation Repair Experts

With the right foundation repair and crawl space encapsulation expert by your side, you’ll be able to quickly assess the situation and make an informed repair decision that’s right for you and for your budget. There are many affordable restoration options that can get your foundation back in like-new condition.

How to Determine Foundation Repair Costs in Huntsville, AL

crawl space dehumidifier installed in huntsvilleOne of the first things you might want to know is how much foundation repairs cost. Most of our worst fears about foundation trouble have to do with money. To help ease your mind, we’ve done some research, and although some numbers will differ for local neighborhoods in the Huntsville, Alabama region, these are some national figures that will give you a basic idea what homeowners like you may be paying across the country.

Before we get into specifics, your actual foundation repair cost will depend on a few factors that will be unique to your home. Don’t assume the worst until you get a professional repair estimate in writing with a full explanation of all your options. Here are some of the most common variables that determine what your repair cost might be.

  • The location and age of your home
  • Your property’s elevation, terrain, and surrounding soil types
  • The construction methods and materials used for your foundation (slab, footing, etc.)
  • The type and extent of structural damage you’re experiencing
  • The soil preparation steps followed by the contractor who built your home
  • Cost and availability of materials, local labor rates, and regional permitting requirements

According to websites like Home Advisor and Angi, and recognized trade groups like the Concrete Network, costs can run from a few hundred dollars for small cracks to $10,000 or more for “whole house” hydraulic pier restoration. These numbers are on the extreme ends and won’t represent what most Huntsville area homeowners actually experience. To put this in perspective, a recent HomeAdvisor survey of 2600 customers put the average nationwide foundation repair bill at around $4,173, with most customers paying somewhere between $1,842 and $6,566 to get their foundations back in “like new” condition.

We have found that the average price of foundation repair in Huntsville, AL to be…

  • Helical Pier Foundation Repair – $10,875
  • Basement Waterproofing – $7,600
  • Basement Wall Repair – $8,400
  • Crawl Space Repair – $9,250
  • Crawl Space Encapsulation – $11,200
  • Concrete Foam Leveling – $2,700

Next, we want to cover the modern foundation repair options that are available to you. Again, you’ll want to have a qualified foundation repair expert perform an inspection and evaluation.

My crawlspace was wet, moldy, and just nasty. The insulation was soaking wet and it smelled awful. I called five... different companies to come out and give me quotes on what they thought needed to be done. I had quotes all over the board ranging from $7,000 all the way up to $48,000. Southern dry was not the cheapest but no where near the most expensive. I decided to use them because Kevin the sales associate I used fully explained the process and broke down each step to where I could understand what was going to be accomplished and what materials would be used. They were even willing to accommodate my special request of adding an extra door to have access under my porch. The installation team, Cha-Chi, Michael, and Ventura were absolutely outstanding. They communicated well and made me fully aware when each step of the process would be taking place. They also always arrived on time and made sure to clean up any trash after each day of work. All in all, SouthernDry is a top notch company with top notch employees to match, would recommend them to anyone.read more

I wanted to take the time to write a review on our experience with Southern Dry. Our home has had a drainage issue due... to the contour of our lot. We reached out to 4 companies for an inspection/quote to properly address this water drainage issue.Only two of the four contacted us back, both providing quotes. After further discussions with Brian at Southern dry and factors such as gut feeling and locally owned and operated, we chose Southern Dry.Several levels (options) we provided as to what degree we wanted to take / correct our ongoing issue. We felt comfortable with guidance from Marco, Matt & Brian that what they intended to do would address and alleviate our ongoing water flow thru our crawlspace.Paperwork was easy and plainly worded to sign and commence the agreement to have the work performed. In just under a day, the team from Southern Dry, trenched our Crawlspace, installed proper drainage around our footings and two sump pumps dug and installed. The system was tested and ensured that it would operate as drawn out.Since the time that the work was performed, we have had a few large rain events come thru, instead of water flowing out our crawlspace doors, it is dry.Do yourself a favor and get Dry with Southern Dry!!!!read more

I’ve never had an experience like this one and wish all contractors I’ve used would exercise this level of professionalism. They came out to do the evaluation, quoted me that day, made sure I understood everything, helped me get financing, showed up time and even finished early. They followed up the next day and even a few weeks later to make I’m still satisfied. They also sent me cookies as a thank you gift! I would 100% recommend them to anyone.read more

Very professional and responsive to our basement waterproofing project. SD’s pricing was much better than a well known... Alabama foundation and waterproofing company and the products were comparable. SD also provided a 5 year longer warranty on the sump pump system.

I highly recommend this company for your waterproofing needs.read more

We discovered some cracks in our brick and mortar on the exterior back of our house. Southern Dry performed a thorough... inspection and provided options that some of the other companies that we had perform an estimation had not considered. They inspected the crawl space to determine if the cracks extended to the footer. This was the only company to perform this inspection for us thanks to Brian. I felt like Southern Dry was honest and did not push me to perform something that was unnecessary. Southern Dry provided an estimate that was comparable to others I received, but with the added thoroughness, which gave us peace of mind. Southern Dry called me with their install date and worked with me to make sure the install was done without damaging my yard and bushes as much as possible. The gentlemen that performed the installation welcomed questions and provided good feedback, they were diligent and cleaned up after they installed the helical piers for our house. After the installation, I received a follow-up to ensure our satisfaction. Overall I have a great impression of Southern Dry for these types of services.read more

They stayed in communication with me to make sure I knew I was a priority when I was ready to start the job. Both Matt and Pablo were great to work with. J.D. and his crew were on time, did the job in a timely manner, and my garage was left cleaner than when they started. I had some concerns about a few things and I never felt pressured to write a check until all those concerns were met. They took my concerns seriously, explained the process of the system, fixed a few details, and now my basement is completely dry after rain!! My husband and I were very impressed that the owner, John, came to look at our basement to make sure everything was in great working order afterwards. Because they did such a wonderful job with our home we choose to use them again with a footing issue we were having with our business building. Calvin (who did our estimate before) came right out and put my mind at ease about what they could do that would make our building safe again. When you run into problems like the ones we were having it is a breathe of fresh air to have a company work so hard to give you a feeling of security back. I will continue to use Southern Dry in the future and would recommend them to anyone that would need these services.read more

SouthernDry was very timely. After dealing with other contractors who would take months, they showed up in less than a... week to look at my issues. They were very knowledgeable, honest, and straightforward. I was given a quote immediately after the inspection for work that would help fix my issue. That quote was consistent throughout the entire process. Their inhouse financing was simple and easy to apply for. They were very good at notifying me about timeline changes due to overages on other jobs. The crew was very respectful, quick, and clean. John was always available if I had questions. Overall terrific experience and I would highly recommend SouthernDry for any crawlspace or foundation problems you may have.read more

Jonathan was great with our quote and answering all our questions. They were amazing working with us to get our project... underway. The crew was fantastic... very professional, super kind, and explained our system to us in great detail before wrapping up the job. Our hardwoods had started cupping from humidity. Since Southern Dry completed our project, a little over a month ago...our floors have settled back as they should and our crawl space looks pristine. We would highly recommend Southern Dry. Great service, great work, great warranties.read more

Very professional company and the work performed was first rate. I would highly recommend this company and I highly... recommend having your crawl space properly sealed and a dehumidifier installed. I had check pricing from several different companies in my area that do this kind of work and they were the most reasonable. I live in Alexandria AL which is in the deep South with very humid weather. I had some serious moisture damage this fall with mold forming from a clogged HVAC unit under my house. Water was puddling onto the plastic under my house, I was not aware of this and it had been going on for several months. By the time I discovered it the damage had already been done to my house flooring. Thank goodness the homeowners insurance covered the floor repair to the tune of $30,000. I wanted to make sure this would never be an issue again even if I had some kind of water leak. They completely clean out all the old plastic, vacuumed the under side of the flooring and removed any construction trash from under the house and then properly sealed my crawl space. My dehumidifier has an app that I can check anywhere in the world and see my temp and humidity levels under my house. There is also a water sensor installed so if water is detected, it will send me a message.I could not be happier and it was worth every penny!read more

Entire team was very professional. They were excellent at communicating what needed to be done. They were always on... time and let you know every step of the process. There was no high pressure sales techniques. They give you the quote and you can start on your timeline. Just call them when you are ready. I got quotes from the more widely advertised foundation repair companies as well and SouthernDry gives you the same product and same warranty at a great price. They worked hard to work around the landscaping. They also did an excellent job of cleaning up. I highly recommend them.read more

Forgive me for the long review, but great service is hard to find these days. When it’s found, it should be celebrated.... John and his crew were incredible from day 1. Water was pooling in our crawl space on a new construction and we were eager to have it resolved quickly to avoid the formation of mold and spores and potential health hazards for our family. John came out immediately and assessed the situation, explained all the issues, and developed a plan. We had a guaranteed price in our hands within minutes; fair middle road pricing for extremely high quality work. Many estimates came in 2x higher, just fyi. There was plenty of trash and construction debris left under the house from the contractors; SouthernDry crew removed every piece of debris and leveled out the ground before installing the drains and pumps and encapsulation material. John and his crew returned a week later because they wanted to make a modification to the system that they believed would be more efficient. I would have never known the difference, but because they care about the quality of their work, they made the modifications to ensure the efficiency and longevity of the system. After a month, I finally made it back to the far corner under the house and noticed water pooling under the encapsulation in one area. One phone call and 24 hours later, the crew showed up, assessed the situation and implemented the necessary modifications, installing additional drainage at no additional cost to me. Using SouthernDry was the easiest and best decision we made!read more

I have had the total encapsulation for one week now, I am proud to say my relative humidity in my house now stays... around 38-40%, I have actually had to raise my thermostat due to it feeling so much cooler and comfortable in my house with the lower humidity levels. I called around and compared prices and Southern Dry was by far the least expensive and the personable and easy to work with. And my crawlspace is dry as a bone. If you have moisture problems or high humidity in your home I would definitely recommend giving John Kabel with Southern Dry a callread more
