Foundation repair with a free evaluation and lifetime warranty

TJ Gilmer is a Senior Structural Analyst with FCS Foundation & Concrete, a Dallas–Fort Worth foundation repair and concrete company. He evaluates slab and pier-and-beam foundations for homeowners and commercial property owners, and FCS backs its repairs with a lifetime transferable warranty.

TJ Gilmer is a Senior Structural Analyst, NFRA certified, with FCS Foundation & Concrete, which has served the Dallas–Fort Worth area for more than 25 years. He is the person who comes to the property, assesses the foundation and explains what is actually happening before any repair is proposed. He works from the company's Lancaster office in southern Dallas County.

FCS repairs slab, pier-and-beam, historical and structural foundations, and handles the related work that usually goes with a foundation problem: French, surface and channel drains to correct drainage, crawl space repair and encapsulation, concrete leveling, and leak detection and cast-iron-to-PVC reroutes by licensed plumbers on staff. The concrete division pours driveways, patios, pool decks, flatwork and decorative finishes. Commercial work covers multifamily, office, industrial and medical properties, retaining walls, excavation, mudjacking and void fill.

The evaluation is free and carries no obligation. FCS provides a written estimate on the spot or within 24 hours, and the company states it will tell a homeowner when no repair is needed. Repairs are done by in-house crews and covered by a lifetime transferable warranty that follows the home when it sells. FCS is a member of the National Foundation Repair Association.

We are in the process of selling our house. We needed a foundation inspection for the buyers loan company to determine if we needed foundation work or not due to some cracks in the drywall above a few doors. Joaquin Vasquez, who is the founder and owner of the company arrived early. He was friendly and took the time to explain the process of his evaluation. He conducted the process in a timely manor and at the end determined we did not need any foundation work.

Happy with the work from FCS. Was worried about having foundation work done but had no issues. Raul and crew kept me up to date on the work and did a very clean job. Post work inspections were scheduled quickly and came back good. Work was inspected by the structural engineer company I hired for my initial plan and work was said to have been done well. Price was good compared to competitors.

TJ and his team did an outstanding job on the foundation repairs at commercial Multifamily property: The Reserve on Willow Lake. They were professional, knowledgeable, and communicated clearly throughout the project. The work was completed on time, the job site was kept clean, and the quality of the workmanship was excellent. I highly recommend TJ and his team to anyone needing foundation work. Five stars!

FCS was great and easy to use. Russell was fast to communicate with and work done was better than expected for foundation repair on the corner of our house. There was rebar showing and cracks in the cement foundation, work was solid and completed kid as requested.
