Had a fantastic experience with Foundation Repair LA Inc. I wouldn't hesitate to suggest them to anyone in LA, in fact, they are the only people I would recommend.
We have been trying to find a company to do some foundation work for close to a decade. We live on a hill and water will seep into the basement area after a heavy rain on one side of the house.
Some companies come out and say they'll give an estimate and never get back, some give one estimate that is possibly overkill and no alternatives, some companies say they will call back and they don't, other companies don't answer the phone. If you've dealt with home construction work and live in LA, you know how crazy it can be and frustrating. It can feel like you are begging companies to work on your house, even though you are wanting to pay full price.
When I called Foundation Repair LA, someone answered the phone! And then set up an appointment for the estimate - THE NEXT WEEK. James and Matt showed up on time. Did a thorough assessment and we had an estimate in a couple days. The price was completely fair and the job was less than what other companies had mentioned, yet fulfilled the same purpose. Signed the contract and they started THE WEEK AFTER!! The project took about 4-5 days. James, the owner, was out everyday to check on progress and the crew was fantastic. If we had any questions, the foreman had answers. Everyone was professional, cleaned up, etc.
In my experience there are not that many construction based companies where everyone involved in the process seems to take great pride in what they do and it really makes such a difference.

I'm incredibly grateful to James from Foundation Repair LA Inc. Three months ago, my property manager informed me of significant ceiling cracks and suspected that they were caused by foundation issues. However, I had my doubts and since I wasn't in California, I decided to seek a third-party evaluation, where James provided exceptional assistance. He reviewed the videos, promptly responded to my emails, and explained through a call that the cracks were caused by a neglected roof leak, not foundation issues. With James' guidance, I contacted a roofing company, and my house has been restored to excellent condition. I highly recommend Foundation Repair LA Inc. for their integrity and expertise, even though I was not their client.

Very pleased with foundation repair and bolting provided by Foundation Repair LA. This family owned business operates as a well-oiled machine, from the estimate to the start of work, to updates on work progress and final photos at completion. Highly recommend them, my house is 100 years old and they treated it with care and gave it a solid foundation.

1st off I was already familiar with the key personnel of this company from past experiences in construction. So I was encouraged to contact them for a home inspection I desperately needed.

They were very helpful from start to finish and giving me a fair price for an inspection, prompt service, and a prompt report which basically was the most important piece of information I needed for my wife and I to make a determination about a home purchase.

I wish more contractors were as easy to deal with and helpful as they are.

James and his team did a wonderful job handling foundation repair at the new (old) home I recently purchased. His communication was clear and prompt. He handled all of my questions and I was always aware of when he would be at my home and how/when I would be billed. Prior to the work he completed, he did an inspection for me during escrow. He was able to schedule it quickly and provided a great report to let us know what we were getting into. I would highly recommend Foundation Repair LA!

Foundation Services We Offer

Earthquake Retrofitting

Seismic retrofitting is your best defense against earthquakes. We install anchor bolts, shear walls, and foundation bracing systems to strengthen your homes and protect against seismic movement. Whether you’re in a single-family residence or a soft-story apartment building, our retrofit work is code-compliant and engineered to reduce risk during the next big quake.

Foundation Replacement

If your foundation is beyond repair, we offer complete foundation replacement services. This involves lifting and temporarily supporting your structure while removing and replacing the old foundation with a new, reinforced system. Our process is carefully planned to minimize disruption and ensure long-term structural stability.

Slab Foundations, Raised Foundations, Brick and Rock Foundations

No two foundations are the same, and we’ve worked with all types. Whether your home sits on a concrete slab, a raised post-and-pier system, or an older brick or rock foundation, we have the expertise to restore structural integrity. We address cracks, moisture issues, settlement, and outdated construction using time-tested techniques and engineering solutions.

Foundation Repairs

We specialize in all forms of foundation repair, from minor crack stabilization to major structural reinforcement. If your floors are sloping, doors are sticking, or cracks are forming in your walls, these could be signs of a compromised foundation. We’ll diagnose the root cause and provide targeted repair solutions that restore stability and prevent future movement.

Floor Leveling

Uneven floors can be both unsightly and dangerous. Our team levels floors by adjusting framing, adding shims, or re-establishing support beneath the home. In some cases, jacking and underpinning are used to correct differential settlement. We aim not only for a visually even floor, but also for long-term structural balance.

Waterproofing of Below-Grade Structures

Basements and crawlspaces in Los Angeles can be vulnerable to water intrusion, especially during the rainy season or in hillside areas. We offer full-service waterproofing for below-grade spaces, including vapor barriers, French drains, exterior coatings, and sump pump systems. Our goal is to keep your home dry, prevent mold, and protect the foundation.

Retaining Walls

We design and build retaining walls that stabilize soil, prevent erosion, and provide functional support to your landscape. Whether you need a new wall constructed, an older one reinforced, or rebuilt, our team ensures that your retaining structure meets both aesthetic and structural requirements. We handle everything, including engineering, drainage design, and permitting.

Hillside Foundations and Slope Repairs

Hillside homes require specialized attention due to shifting soils and the threat of landslides. We perform slope stabilization, erosion control, and foundation reinforcement using caissons/piles, grade beams, grading, and retaining walls. Whether you’re experiencing movement or proactively preparing your home, our team offers expert hillside solutions.

Deepened Foundation Underpinning

When standard foundations aren’t enough, we strengthen them using deep foundation systems like caissons and piles. These solutions transfer the weight of your structure to stable soil or bedrock. Common in hillside homes and properties with poor soil conditions, underpinning ensures your home remains level and secure, no matter the terrain.

Hillside Decks

Decks on sloped lots require careful engineering and construction. We build and repair hillside decks that are structurally sound, aesthetically integrated, and ready for everyday use. Whether you’re installing a new deck or replacing failing supports, our team handles footings, steel posts, and framing with precision and care.
