Piering Installation in Olathe

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

Received an alarm that our pump was not working. KC Waterproofing sent out a technician, Mario V, the next day. Mario is so professional and efficient. He diagnosed the problem with our backup pump, replaced it, and got the system back online. And, everything was under warranty!
KC waterproofing did a fantastic job stabilizing the foundation at my house. Your home is your largest investment so it can be nerve racking when you have work done on your foundation. The staff at KC waterproofing were professional, knowledgable and great to work with, which helped ease my anxiety. Fran the estimator diagnosed the issue and explained the process; Michelle at the office helped with billing; Don the owner called personally to schedule my project and ask if I had any questions; and Keith, Jesse and Jacob did an awesome job installing the piers (which is hard work) and made sure I understood what was going on at all times.
5-Star review for KC Waterproofing! Thank you Gerry, Jesse & Kenny for a job well done. They were prompt, courteous, and professional. We would recommend KC Waterproofing!
The guys that came to our house to do the repairs worked really hard and were very kind and professional especially Gerry. Thank you for the excellent job!!
Keith and the guys did an outstanding job. They were on time, hard working and explained everything as work progressed. We couldn’t be more happier with the foundation repair they did.
Scott explained everything in easy to understand terms. I am confident that he was honest and thorough. He was not the first estimate we have gotten but he was the most impressive.Keith and Jesse arrived at the appointed time and explained what we could expect, then got started. The project took a little longer than expected because they had to go deeper than anticipated. The last day of the project brought a third guy. I regrettably did not learn his name but he performed admirably. The job was completed as Keith told us and the only mess left behind was the mess we made moving things out of the way.Keith explained the confusing emails that my wife received was due to an outage of Verizon. We were happy with everyone involved throughout the process, from estimator to office personnel to the eventual workers who performed like rock stars. I will heartily recommend KC Waterproofing to anyone who is faced with foundation issues. We have complete confidence that our problems will not revisit us. The crew checked our sticking door throughout the lifting process to make sure it was working properly. We are relieved to have this behind us.
Matt was very knowledgeable and kind. Answered all my 97 year old mom’s many questions. He knew what he was doing and explained it very thoroughly. Top notch.
These guys HUSTLED! They were fast, efficient, neat, and so friendly. They did an excellent job, and I highly recommend using this company. From initial quote to final job, everyone has been informative, and low pressure. Wonderful company!
Scott came out and was helpful to finding a solution to our foundation issue. We look forward to being able to work again with KC Waterproofing, they are an excellent company that are easy to work with and have helped us in the past.
Everyone I spoke with at the company was very personable and kind. They took care of all our needs and on top of that, offered competitive pricing compared to other companies we interviewed.
