Why Clients Trust Us Year After Year

Hear from Portland homeowners who trusted our team for reliable foundation repairs, crawl space solutions, and honest service every step.

After the winter rains, our Laurelhurst basement started showing cracks. Portland Foundation Repair explained everything clearly, showed up on time, and stabilized the wall without turning our yard into a mess. The crew was respectful, organized, and genuinely cared about protecting our home. I’d recommend them to any Portland homeowner.

Mike H.

Our crawl space in Sellwood had sagging floors and moisture problems, and I wanted answers, not sales pressure. Their team inspected the piers, walked me through the repair plan, and completed the work efficiently. The floors feel solid again, and the cleanup was better than expected for a dirty job.

Sarah

We own a bungalow near Mt. Tabor, and foundation issues felt overwhelming until this crew arrived. They were patient, friendly, and worked around our schedule, even during typical Portland drizzle. The finished repair looks clean, the basement feels drier, and communication stayed excellent from estimate to the final walkthrough appointment.

New Foundation FAQs

Explore our FAQ for straightforward answers about new foundation construction in Portland.
A new residential foundation in the Portland area typically ranges from $12,000 to $40,000+, depending on type (slab, stem-wall, or full basement), size, site access, and soil conditions. Sloped lots and expansive clay soils add engineering and excavation costs. We provide a detailed written estimate after reviewing your plans and site.
Most residential foundations are excavated, formed, poured, and cured over one to two weeks. Weather, inspections, and foundation type affect the timeline, and the concrete needs proper cure time before framing begins. We give you a stage-by-stage schedule up front.
It depends on your lot. Portland’s expansive clay and high winter groundwater often favor a stem-wall (crawl space) foundation for drainage and access, while flat, stable lots can use slab-on-grade. Hillside and sloped lots may need deepened footings or piers. We recommend the right system after a soil and site review.
Yes. We build to your engineered plans, pull the required permits, and coordinate each city inspection through the pour. You get a foundation that passes every stage and is documented for your build.
Absolutely. New foundations for ADUs, room additions, and detached garages are a core part of our work. We match the new foundation to your existing structure and Portland code so the addition ties in cleanly and lasts.
