FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
About Foundation Repair
How do I know if
my structure needs repairs?
You might have seen the warning signs, cracks in the sheetrock, and
cracks in the brick veneer, doors miss-aligned and sticking. This could all
be signs that your foundation is in trouble. Call Alamo Hy-Tech Repair Foundation,
Inc. and our experts will come out and give you a thorough assessment free,
with no obligation. We'll give you a detailed quote if work needs to be
done.
How long will
repairs take?
On average, repairs will take 3 to 5 days to complete; we clean up after
and replant any plants that might have been removed.
What about
payment?
Payment will be 1/2 down when work begins and balance upon completion and
there are no hidden costs.
What about
plumbing tests?
You can call your homeowners insurance and ask for a static sewer test or
hydrostatic test, or we can refer you to a plumber we work with on a daily
basis.
Do you have any
references?
Yes we do! There is a list of references on the last page of the packet.
E-mail or call us and we would be glad to e-mail, fax or give you additional
references over the phone of many satisfied customers.
How long has
Alamo Hy-Tech Foundation Repair, Inc. been in business?
We have been in business for almost 20 years.
Is there anything
that I need to do to prepare for these repairs?
For interior and exterior repairs; any small items around the area that
we will be working should be removed for precaution. For interior repairs,
your salesperson or crew supervisor will go over which rooms need to be
cleared.
What about
adjustments?
If, after the work is completed, any adjustments are needed to the
pilings installed, the adjustments are completed at no cost to the
homeowner.
Do you have a
warranty?
After work is completed and paid in full, a lifetime warranty certificate
is issued. The warranty covers only the pilings which Alamo installed.
This warranty is owner transferable for the life of the structure. There is
a $300 transfer fee paid within 30 days of transfer of property ownership to
keep warranty current.
What about my
landscaping?
If any plants or shrubs need to be removed we will place them to the side
and water them while work is being done, once work is completed we will
replant and water them. It is up to the homeowner to take care of the
plants after the job is complete. Alamo Hy-Tech Foundation Repair,
Inc. does not warranty any
plants.
Does someone need
to be home?
No, the only time we will need to get into the property is when we are
ready to level and this is done near completion of repairs unless interior
repairs are needed we will need access to interior of the house. If you are
home during the repairs, the job supervisor will help answer any questions
you might have, or you may call the office and talk to a salesperson.
