In bad need of foundation guy that will fix my house and stand by the work. Or an engineering firm that will tell me exactly what it needs. Or both. 1940s home. Moving a lot. Thank you
Also if $5k in work was done two months ago and It didn’t help at all, and there’s supposed to be a warranty, but I can’t even get a hold of the guy, is that something you’d pursue civilly?

Perma Pier. I dont know if they will work out in weatherford, but they are beyond awesome. I also hired a Structural engineer first to get that report and to insure the work was done to match. I did this after two previous jackleg cheapo companies made my house worse. After perma pier, the cracks closed up. Doors work fine etc. The crew from perma pier were really courteous and professional. Well worth the money in my opinion. The jack leg cheapos were terrible. Get it done right. I can get you names and numbers if you like.

1940's home, so I'm guessing pier and beam?? That should make things easier, and yet the foundation may not be the only problem. .

First I called Crosstown Engineering - Adam Green (469) 751-7694 Then, after his assessment, Hired Perma Pier to do the work. They are one of a few that were recommended. Perma Pier (214) 637-1444 - specifically Pedro Gonzalez (806) 239-0242 Prior to this, prior to 2017, I paid a jerkwad company twice $3k each time who unknowingly made matters worse. Perma Pier and Crosstown are professionals.

Gl Hunt is one of ftw top rated repair specialist. They have come to my house and have referred to friends and all had nothing but positive experience and repair work when needed. They spent about hour checking my home and luckily I didn’t need repairs. If you don’t need they are honest and don’t force unnecessary repairs

If it is foundation problems (Shifting) Ram Jack is a great company. They have a good warranty and they always answer their phone! They do excellent work and they stand by their work.

About 10 years ago we had All Pro fix our foundation. We sold this house a little over a year ago. Since it had foundation repair the buyers had a independent company come in and check the foundation. This company said it was fine. Is has a life time transferable warranty which I know the new buyers had transferred to them.

Crosstown is a good place to start. I work for Structured Foundation Repairs and we've had a major influx of pier & beam homes needing work in the past few months. PM me if you have any questions.
You can call the office for a free inspection (972) 484-1200.
