On April 26th, 2018, Keith’s crew went out to Olathe, KS for a foundation repair job. When Keith’s crew got to the site, they met with the homeowner and talked with him about the process that would take place and what to expect. They also discussed questions that he had and thoroughly explained every answer.

The crew installed six Earth Contact Products 250 Piers on the northwest side of his home. KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair uses Earth Contact Products because they are a trusted name in the industry, have American-made products, and is a family owned operation out of Kansas. We work with people and products that we trust so we can pass on that trust and security to our customers.

Piers were installed due to foundation settlement and sinking. This is common with homes that are built on shifting soils, improperly compacted soil, or any number of other reasons. While there is usually always some small amount of settlement in all homes, there should never be noticeable large cracks and sloped flooring. In this case, the homeowner had previously had piering work done in 2012 and 2015. He had five piers installed on February 4, 2015, and seven piers installed on January 10, 2012.

Foundation piers worked with this foundation by being driven deep into the ground and into a foundation bracket for the piering system. They were attached, and then the foundation was lifted to an adequate height to match the rest of the home. The home was then supported by the piers. This can sometimes be a process that takes a little while because you can’t dramatically lift a house without some damage. This is why we like to take it slow to get the best and most secure results.

Satisfied Customer Reviews

Camden came and did a thorough inspection of our foundation and explained the findings well. I felt he was honest with his recommendations and did not try to convince us to do something that wasn't necessary.
Will use KC Waterproofing and Foundation Repair again and highly recommend.
Thank you Cam!
We recently had foundation repairs with multiple piers and poly-fill. Not only were they professional on-site, but one of the employees even noticed a package sitting outside starting to get rained on so they placed it in my mudroom. They kept me informed through the process and ensured I understood each repair prior to commencing.
Fran was incredible! He was prompt and very knowledgeable about our questions regarding our foundation. He showed us that we already had a bracing system and our foundation was secure. I would recommend him to anyone!
Fran Heisinger came out and gave a detailed and thorough inspection of our foundation. His experience, service and expertise assured us if we needed additional work, his crew and company could do the job. Highly recommend.
We recently used KC Waterproofing to do our foundation, put in an IBeam and jack post, multiple piers. When I say these guys did an excellent job from start to finish… I can’t even express it enough. Very professional. Very clean work. They cleaned up so well you can’t even tell we just had major work done. This was a week and a half project. The entire crew has just been so amazing in this hard time. I will forever recommend and be using them for future projects. I don’t quite remember every one’s name but the ones I do, Cam, Kyle, Jacob, Jesse, Gerry, Connor, you all were amazing and fantastic job. Start to finish!
The team showed up exactly when they were supposed to. They kept us informed with everything they were doing! The entire experience was excellent‼️
Mario came out to check the sump pump. After cleaning the pit out and checking both the main and backup pump he wiped everything done and left the area cleaner than when he got there. Very friendly and knowledgeable guy!
We recently had KC Waterproofing out at our home in North Kansas City, and I cannot say enough great things about Ryan Marshall and his team (Austin & Jacob). They worked at our property over the week of July 17/2025 - and absolutely blew us away with their professionalism, work ethic, and transparency.

Ryan took the time to thoroughly explain the problems we were facing, what caused them, and exactly how they were going to fix them. His honesty and willingness to go the extra mile truly set him apart.

Ryan and his assistant worked hard, were respectful of our home, and made sure everything was done right the first time. It's rare these days to find that level of care and craftsmanship. Because of professionals like Ryan, we’ll continue to turn to KC Waterproofing for future needs.

Highly recommend this company—especially if you get the chance to work with Ryan and his crew! When it comes to foundation issues we will always recommend KC Waterproofing. They have been in the business, are trusted, and will do the job correctly.
We are very happy with the service we received from KC Waterproofing.
We had a very good experience with KC Waterproofing foundation repair on our house in south Kansas City in February and highly recommend you give them an opportunity to look at your foundation for an estimate and any work to be done.
