About Fayetteville Foundation Co.

Fayetteville Foundation Co. does one kind of work in one place: foundation repair in Fayetteville and the surrounding communities. Most full jobs run $4,000-$15,000 for most full repairs; piers commonly $1,200-$3,000 each; slab work $3,500-$12,000, and every price follows the free measured evaluation.

What people notice first

Most of the calls we take start with something small and specific — doors that stick in one season and swing free in the next, a crack that keeps reappearing after it is filled, floors that feel out of level near one wall, brick that has opened in a stair-step above a window. None of those is a diagnosis on its own, and several have innocent explanations. Working out which one you have is what the visit is for, and it is free because guessing from a description over the phone helps nobody.

Ozark Plateau karst limestone that dissolves along joints and erodes into voids beneath foundations, interspersed with pockets of expansive clay that swell and shrink seasonally soil type can change within a single lot, so differential settlement is the norm where builders skipped geotechnical work slab stabilization over karst voids requires void filling in addition to piering - the most distinctive leveling challenge in Arkansas

Why everything gets photographed

This work happens where a homeowner never looks, which has historically made it a trust-me trade. We run it the other way round. The measured evaluation produces photographs and readings you review before any price is mentioned, and every stage after that is documented and handed over, including the depth each pier reached.

The result is that you can check the work the same way we do, without taking anyone's word for it.

What we will tell you that a sales script will not

• Plenty of houses do not need piers — a dated baseline and a second look after a full wet-dry cycle is often the honest recommendation
• A cheaper bid with shallower piers is a different repair, not a discount
• Drainage belongs in a structural quote, because moisture movement is what moved the foundation in the first place
• Cosmetic repair before the movement has stopped is work you will pay for twice

How we price, and why the number holds

Quotes are itemised by stage — water, structure, seal, then finishes — with the readings that justified each line attached to it. The number is honoured as written, because the visit took the guesswork out before anything was priced. If conditions turn out different from what the photographs showed, that is our miss rather than your change order.

Travel to the outlying communities is quoted as its own line when it applies, never folded into the price of the work.

Where the figures come from

Climate, soil and code figures on this site are drawn from NWS Tulsa precipitation record for Fayetteville Drake Field; Encyclopedia of Arkansas soils; Northwest Arkansas geotechnical and construction reporting. They are cited so they can be checked rather than taken on trust, and anything decisive should still be confirmed with the authority that will inspect the work.

Published figures describe the region. The readings taken at your own property are what decide a scope, and that is what the free measured evaluation produces.

Common questions about working with us

Is the visit really free?

The visit is really free, and it stays free whether or not you go ahead. You keep the photographs and the readings either way — including when the honest recommendation is to do nothing yet.

Do you subcontract the work?

The inspection and the scope are ours, and the crew doing the work answers to the same scope you signed. One company across the whole sequence is the point — three subcontractors doing three slices is how work ends up done out of order.

What if I only want a second opinion?

That is a normal reason to call. You get the same visit and the same written findings, and there is no obligation attached to either.

How quickly can someone come out?

We reply the same business day and schedule from there. If what you are describing is getting worse while it waits, say so when you call and it moves up.
