Foundation Repair and Waterproofing for Atlanta Homes

Foundation and Basement Problems in Atlanta? Fast Help Available
These four problems account for most of the calls we take in this part of Georgia. All four trace back to the same cause: expansive Piedmont red clay that swells when wet and shrinks when dry.
Cracks that keep growing
Stair-step cracks in brick, gaps at door frames, and separating trim usually mean one part of the footing has dropped further than the rest.
Piers carry the load down to stable strata so the movement stops instead of being patched over.
Water in the basement after every storm
Saturated red clay presses against your walls and floor. That hydrostatic pressure pushes water through cove joints, cracks, and porous block.
Interior drainage relieves the pressure and routes water to a sump instead of your floor.
Musty air and a damp crawl space
A vented crawl space in Georgia pulls humid summer air under your house, where it condenses, feeds mold, and rises into your living space.
A sealed CrawlSeal barrier plus dehumidification holds humidity at a level where mold cannot take hold.
Sloping floors and sunken concrete
Bouncy floors point to failing joists or girders. Sunken driveways and patios point to voids where fill soil washed out or compacted.
Support jacks level the floor system, and PolyRenewal fills the void and lifts the slab back to grade.
We start with a proper diagnosis, then recommend the least invasive fix that actually solves it.

Local Expertise You Can Count On
How We Work Across Atlanta
Atlanta sits on expansive Piedmont red clay, and the city's mix of housing stock means no two jobs look alike. Our crews reach intown neighborhoods from two branches: Marietta covers everything north of I-20 and inside the northern arc of I-285, and East Point handles the south and west sides. Most inspections are booked within a few days, and our customer care line takes calls seven days a week until 11 pm EST.
Older intown homes in Grant Park, Kirkwood, and the West End often have hand-dug basements, stacked block walls, or shallow crawl spaces that were never sealed. Homes built after the 1990s along the I-285 corridor tend to sit on graded clay pads, where post-construction settlement and poor lot drainage show up within the first decade. We plan access, equipment, and staging around both, including tight driveways and narrow side yards common on intown lots.
Atlanta Housing Stock We Work On
We work on 1920s craftsman bungalows with crawl spaces and brick pier foundations, split-levels and ranches from the 1960s and 70s with poured or block basements, and newer infill construction on slab. Each type fails differently.
Bungalow crawl spaces trap humidity through Georgia's long, wet summers, which rots joists and pushes musty air upstairs through the stack effect. Block basement walls bow inward when saturated clay presses against them after heavy rain. Slab homes near the BeltLine and along the west side tend to show cracked, sunken driveways and patios where fill soil settled. We match the fix to the foundation type, from helical piers and carbon fiber straps to interior drainage, CrawlSeal encapsulation, and PolyRenewal slab lifting.

Atlanta Foundation Repair Questions Answered
Which neighborhoods do you serve?
expand_more
We cover the whole City of Atlanta and the surrounding metro, including Buckhead, Midtown, Virginia-Highland, Grant Park, Kirkwood, East Atlanta, the West End, Cascade Heights, and everything inside and around I-285. Work is dispatched from our Marietta and East Point branches.
How soon can someone inspect my foundation here?
expand_more
Most free in-home inspections are scheduled within a few days. Our customer care team answers Monday to Friday 7 am to 11 pm, Saturday 8 am to 11 pm, and Sunday 10 am to 11 pm EST, so you can book outside work hours.
Why do Atlanta basements leak so often?
expand_more
Piedmont red clay holds water instead of draining it. After a heavy storm, saturated soil presses against basement walls and floors, and that hydrostatic pressure pushes water through cracks, cove joints, and porous block. Interior drainage relieves the pressure instead of trying to seal it out.
Do you work on older intown homes with crawl spaces?
expand_more
Yes. Bungalows and older homes across Grant Park, Kirkwood, and the West End are a large part of our work. We handle joist and girder repair, support jacks, CrawlSeal vapor barriers, and dehumidification in tight, low-clearance crawl spaces.
How much does foundation repair cost in the area?
expand_more
Pricing is project-based because it depends on how far the foundation has moved, the soil under it, and the repair method. You get a transparent breakdown at the free inspection, plus financing options if you want to spread the cost.
Is the warranty valid if I sell my Atlanta home?
expand_more
Yes. The life-of-structure warranty on our structural repairs is fully transferable to the next owner, which helps at inspection and closing when buyers ask about past foundation work.
Still have questions?
A certified inspector can look at your home and answer them in person. The inspection is free and there is no obligation.
