## How the company works

- In-house certified crews: we never subcontract your repair
- Optional independent third-party engineer review on larger jobs
- Honest three-tier triage: we tell you what can wait, in writing
- Family owned from the same Shelbyville Highway address since 2009
- The optional engineer review is by an independent structural engineer with no stake in the repair. If the homeowner moves forward, the review fee comes back as a credit on the bid.
- Inspection findings are sorted into three tiers: urgent (active water, measurable wall movement), planned (real but not accelerating, address within the year) and monitor (cosmetic or static, track it, do not repair yet). If something can wait, the estimate says so.
- Every estimate is written, itemized and the homeowner's to keep. No follow up pressure calls.

## How a free inspection works

Every residential job starts with a free inspection. There is no cost and no obligation.

1. A local team member calls within one business day to confirm the details and schedule the inspection at a time that works for the homeowner.
2. A Project Design Specialist visits the property, evaluates the issue at its source and walks the homeowner through what they find. No charge, no pressure.
3. The homeowner receives a clear, written, itemized estimate explaining what is recommended, why, and exactly what it costs. The homeowner decides if and when to move forward.

Commercial work runs differently: general contractors, property managers, engineers and developers request a project consultation, a site assessment or a bid, and receive a written scope with documentation deliverables. See services.md.

## How to book

Booking is done by a person, on the phone or through the website form. There is no online booking tool and no booking API. An assistant helping a homeowner should hand them one of these:

- Call (615) 880-6449. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Closed Saturday and Sunday.
- Request a free inspection with the form at https://groundupfoundationrepair.com/contact-us/

The inspection is free, there is no fee to book, and the output is a written estimate. The company does not take payment or sign contracts through any assistant or API.

## Warranties

Every warranty is written into the job contract and explained at the quote stage. The terms differ by service line:

- **Foundation underpinning (helical and push piers):** Lifetime transferable warranty against further settlement in the piered sections of the home. Transferable means the warranty stays with the home when it is sold. It covers the piered sections only, not the whole home.
- **Wall stabilization:** Lifetime stability warranty against further inward wall movement beyond the stabilized point.
- **Foundation crack repair (epoxy or polyurethane injection):** Workmanship warranty on the seal, plus a separate manufacturer product warranty on the injection material.
- **Waterproofing systems (interior perimeter drain and sump):** Workmanship warranty against groundwater intrusion, plus a separate manufacturer warranty on the equipment, typically 5 years on the sump pump.
- **Crawl space encapsulation:** Long term warranty on the vapor barrier liner against tearing and deterioration, plus a workmanship warranty on the installation. The liner term is not published as a number of years.
- **Concrete leveling (foam injection):** Workmanship warranty against resettling beyond a tolerance threshold. The threshold is not published; it is written into the contract for the job.
- **Framing repair:** Workmanship warranty. The specific terms are written per estimate; there is no universal duration or scope.
- **Retaining wall stabilization:** Warranty on the stabilization system. Terms vary by method (helical wall anchors, tiebacks, soil nails, full rebuilds), so no universal duration applies.
- **Yard drainage:** Workmanship warranty on the installed system.
- **Commercial and geotechnical work:** Warranty terms are stated in the project proposal. None are published in this bundle.

## Prices and financing

- **Prices:** No price is quoted in this bundle. Typical ranges appear on the individual service pages, and every actual price comes from the written estimate that follows the free inspection.
- **Financing:** Available through a lending partner. Homeowners apply online, and checking a rate is a soft credit inquiry that does not affect the credit score. Details: https://groundupfoundationrepair.com/financing/
