How it works.
What to expect, start to finish.
Your site assessment reviews visible movement, property history, drainage and the structural information available; we tell you whether an engineer or further investigation is needed before we propose any repair scope.
Your project, step by step
- Before
Tell us what prompted the visit when you book. We confirm by text and arrive with everything we need to measure, test and photograph.
- During
We look at everything that matters, explain what we find as we go and answer every question on the spot. There is no charge and no obligation.
- After
Within two business days you receive a written summary with photos, your options and a price range for each. Nothing is scheduled until you decide.
Know the names.
The makers, products and standards we reference at a foundation condition assessment.
The measured foundation assessment
We build a record of symptoms, site drainage and elevation information before selecting a repair. Ram Jack’s engineering resources show why soil and structural conditions shape pile-system design.
- Record crack locations and change history
- Coordinate an independent structural review where needed
- Separate observed conditions from unconfirmed causes
Manufacturer and product names belong to their owners and link to official information. No affiliation or authorized-provider status is implied.
Good to know.
How long does the work take?
The site visit itself takes about 60 minutes. If it leads to work, your written summary includes a schedule for each option.
Do you handle permits and engineering?
Yes. When the work that follows needs a permit or an engineer’s sign-off, we prepare the drawings, pull the permits and book the inspections.
What happens after the assessment?
Within two business days you receive a written summary with photos, your options and a price range for each. Nothing is scheduled until you decide.
Questions worth bringing.
- What should the site assessment and written scope establish for foundation condition assessment?
- Which site observations, drainage history and movement records justify further investigation or independent engineering?
- What assessed cause, engineered scope, monitoring plan, exclusions and warranty limits support the proposed repair?
Before you book.
Every project starts on site. You receive a written scope, a schedule and a price range before design begins, and nothing moves to contract until you approve it. Final scope and pricing are confirmed after your site assessment.
“The foundation condition assessment came with elevation readings and a straight answer: monitor, don’t repair yet.”
