Frequently asked
Clear answers.
No shortcuts.
Can every foundation be lifted?＋
No. The right objective may be stabilization, controlled recovery, or both. The structure and risks determine the plan.
Is a visual estimate an engineering report?＋
A Steelman inspection includes management on site, property measurements, plans, an estimating-team review and engineer review before a report is presented. Review the scope and applicable fee during appointment checkout. The completed repair must be verified by an engineer.
How soon should movement be reviewed?＋
Promptly when changes are active, widening, or paired with sticking openings, sloping floors, water, or safety concerns.
