About the Owner

Ryan is a sixth generation Oregonian and third generation entrepreneur in the construction industry. With a family heritage in agriculture, ranching, and mineral resources, Ryan was raised on a sheep, cattle, and horse ranch just North of Roseburg, Oregon. His grandfather, Phil Beckley, was principal and partner in Beckley and Thomas Rock Productions — a firm started in Elkton, Oregon in the late 1930’s, later becoming one of the largest aggregate suppliers in Southern Oregon. After serving a tour in Vietnam, Ryan’s father, Tom Beckley started a rock crushing and road building business in Southern Oregon.

At the early age of 24, Ryan Beckley started his first company, Beckley Excavation and Utility, which quickly positioned itself as a significant player in the civic construction industry. The success of the excavation business led Ryan to diversify into rock quarry operations, real estate development, and a foundation repair company that he named TerraFirma.

The impetus for starting TerraFirma was Ryan’s very first home — a beautiful home in a great neighborhood for sale at what seemed to be well below market value. Ryan later found that this was due to a foundation settlement issue, making the home incredibly hard to sell despite its great location. True to Ryan’s tenacious nature — Ryan decided he could find a way to fix it, and purchased the home. After extensive research and education on deep foundation repairs, it became apparent to Ryan that local homeowners and business owners were in dire need of the same services and solutions he sought.

In March of 2005, TerraFirma was created and has since become the industry leader in structural stabilization, waterproofing, and humidity control. With office locations in Oregon and Washington, and by far the largest and best-trained workforce in the industry, TerraFirma’s growth has been staggering.

Today, TerraFirma is Ryan’s only professional focus. Ryan instills a culture of excellence in all parts of TerraFirma, putting great culture and an amazing customer experience at the top of the list. After being named in the Portland Business Journal’s “Fastest Growing Companies” and The Oregonian’s “Top Workplaces in Oregon,” the future for TerraFirma keeps getting brighter and brighter.

TERRAFIRMA IN THE COMMUNITY

Each year, TerraFirma locations partner with various community causes, both large and small, to give back.
While this list isn’t exhaustive, we are proud of our individual and collective efforts to make a positive impact in our communities.

thank you
Homeowners!

We love our clients – and the feeling is mutual.
From Roseburg to Eugene, Portland to Seattle, our team does their best work every day. And we love when our customers take the time to let us know.

I just want to share that they showed up on time, did the work they promised to do and they applied unforeseen discounts to the final bill that were unexpected. Shaving thousands off my bill at the very end. In a word “Trustworthy”.
No clue if the job ws done technically perfect or not. Hopefully, I will never know (no earthquacks). they kept me well informed, were prompt, polite and left no mess.
Travis and the crew did an excellent job with our crawlspace project. They were always on time even though they were coming from Roseburg to Bend, and great with giving updates as they went. We love our new crawlspace now and grateful for cleaner air, better temperature regulation in the home as well as the added benefit of extra storage. Thanks TerraFirma!
An excellent experience. Thanks for all you skill and hard work.

Major kudos to Terra Firma for the excellent work they did in my crawlspace. Props to Jonathan, Rom, Logan and Daniel for their great attitudes and professionalism. I definitely recommend this company.
Bailey was the best! So knowledgeable and helpful! Also, very understanding & caring! So good at what he does!
Terra Firma has done a very nice job! The work was professionally completed. They were thorough and communicative. They walked me through all the details as they went and cleaned up well when they were completed. Very nice work!
The crew showed up right as scheduled. The foundation work itself was completed in two days. Inspection and clean up occurred on the morning of the third day. I highly recommend Terra Firma.
Very good experience from day 1. They ended up not needing one of the permits or a window brace like originally planned, of which both items were credited back to me. The installation crew was professional, efficient, and more than tolerant explaining all the little details of what they were doing while I watched the process. I really like that they live streamed their engineers the entire time for QC, and even had a third party review inspection. I chose TerraFirma over 3 other companies for the warranty terms and for them being a long established Oregon local business, and I am very happy with their work and crew. I hope to not have any future structural repairs done but if I do, I will 1000% hire them again. Thanks!
Skylar did a great job saving our concrete deck that was cracking. It feels much more stable. He explained the process and got it done. Left the area spotless
Great experience from start to finish. Communication was clear, service was prompt, and the work was done right the first time. Everything was explained in a way that made sense, and the space was left clean and tidy afterward. You can tell they take pride in their work and care about their customers. I would absolutely recommend them and would use them again without hesitation.
This is our 2nd time to use Terra Firma and we can't recommend them highly enough. They had lifted our sunken front porch and driveway a few years ago. So when we were having bad odors and mice infestation in our crawl space we didn't hesitate to call Terra Firma. They sent the best design specialist Derek Ryan and the best crew ever to encapsulate it! Such hard-working, professional, respectful young men. Foreman Luis kept us informed and answered all questions. Actually all of them could knowledgeably answer our questions. It took them all week and Brad, Jorge and Jose. They worked their tails off!
We couldn't be more pleased.
We recently had two wall systems installed for two homes in our HOA. While there were some scheduling challenges along the way, Rocky was incredibly supportive and accommodating, ensuring the entire experience was handled with care and professionalism.

He truly went above and beyond to make sure the work was completed with exceptional craftsmanship and attention to detail. I highly recommend TerraFirma, and especially want to recognize Rocky and his partner Harley for the outstanding job they did.
Seth, Bree and Angel were fantastic to work with! Thank you Terra Firma for helping stabilize our cabin. Professional, on-time and kept us informed of all the steps that they were taking and why. Up front pricing, no hidden costs and a job well done! Very Satisfied customers! Highly Recommended.
My mother-in-law’s house was built in 1962 and has had basement water issues for more than 40 years. We’ve spent so much money trying to fix it over the years, but TerraFirma Foundation Systems completely transformed the situation—it feels like magic.

Thank you to the team: Casey from sales and the crew members Antonio, Jessi, and Casey. The three musketeers worked efficiently and truly operated as a team. Thank you for bringing such an incredible change to my mother-in-law’s home!

One suggestion for management: please focus on bringing happiness to your customers rather than worrying too much about potential lawsuits.
2/16/26 update: My sump pump broke in December due to the high level of iron in the soil under my house. Terra Firma responded quickly and replaced the pump with no issue. Great customer service and a great team / experience! Thank you Terra Firma!

Seth has been amazing to work with! I have been working with Seth on designing my crawlspace drainage system. Seth has been extremely helpful, patient, and professional. I've pestered him every day, multiple times a day with questions, asked for revisions to my quote, clarifications, and have been an all-around pest. Through it all, Seth has been responsive, communicative, and thorough. The work is scheduled for Mid-May 2024. I will update my review after the work is done with how it went with the crew and the job they did.
Mr. Stanford did a thorough inspection of our crawlspace and gave us the honest opinion that very little needed to be addressed. He was very professional and clearly very experienced. This was after a competitor came out and tried to convince us we needed an $18,000 encapsulation.
James and his crew were efficient, kind, and exceeded my expectations. My foundation was needed piers both outside and in the basement, yet they were quick and cleaned up. I even noticed a change in my home’s interior when it was fixed! Cracks closed up. They took care of the whole process, including permits and inspections. And, James communicated, including walking me through, clearly listening to my responses.

I recommend TerraFirma, especially James who was the foreman on my job, especially to those who want to be respected, want to understand what is happening, and want good communication throughout the job.
The crew from TerraFirma, Andrew, Zach, Kayden and Zoey just finished our water issue correction in our crawl space. They did a FANTASTIC job! Drain lines along with the needed pumps were all installed neat and clean. Hard working and knowledgeable crew. Excellent job. Would defiantly use TerraFirma again. THANK YOU!!! AAAA++++
Schylar did an outstanding job. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Very happy with the results..
Thank you
Joe Henslee
Always professional with great outcomes. I high recommended Terra Firma.
Great expedience, very knowledgeable and helpful .
Crew was very professional. Arrived right on time. Cleaned up daily on job. Raised outer edge of our sunroom after installing 4 piers and new support posts.
The crew that stabilized the back corner of my house was experienced, professional, efficient and communicative. Luke, Tyson and Kyle kept me informed on their progress, discussed recommended changes to the original work order, reviewed the results of their work and left the site clean.
Jaden was prompt, professional and courteous. I would recommend him to anyone who requires his services.
I used Terrafirma for foundation support repair. I found the staff and work crew very honest and extremely thorough! Was a little outside my budget, but I was so happy that I chose them! Satisfaction in every area is so worth it!!
Will choose them over and over and refer!

These guys were great! Aris, Rom and Scotty showed up on time, cleaned up after themselves and communicated well during the project.
After I bought a 115 year old house built partially into a hill near the top of Council Crest in Portland and discovered that the walls bled water when it rained, two walls were built into a hill and had endured the pressure of water and mud for a century, causing cracks and turning the foundation to crumbles, I called Terra Firma when an neighbor with an old house told me about her experience. Terra Firma has a great reputation. During the first meeting, Hannah walked the property and made a detailed proposal, explaining how Terra Firma would ensure that the walls do not cave in by shoring them up and anchoring them, supplemented with a vapor lock system to keep the water out of the house. NO MORE MUSTY SMELL, THANK YOU! Hannah explained the plan thoroughly, using her iPad to ensure that I understood. It could not get any better than this...I signed the paperwork immediately and contracted for the foundation repair and upgrade. This week, Geovany and his team spent four days working very hard and very smart to finish the project on time, and without any hitches. And they were working hard, very thoughgoing and steadfast.

I am extraordinarily pleased with the work of the TerraFirma team, and how they did it. It is obvious by looking at the work that my basement walls are solid, secure, and dry.

THANK YOU TerraFirma!
Absolutely Great Crew-Jorge,Juan and Manuel! Very Professional. Answer all my questions as they worked my Project. Very well organized. Used all the proper safety gear to remain healthy and virtually encapsulated with plastic the interior of my home to contain the dirt/debris tracked in from outside/under the house. They helped set up the electronic gizmos to my WiFi so I can monitor the system they installed. Very happy with the results.
Terra firma Oregon City Completed my basement waterproofing project. I want to give a shout out to Antonio , Kameron, Jesse For doing a very fast and efficient job Completing my waterproofing system.
These guys are great! Skyler explained the process and did a great job on a complicated floor. I would recommend them anytime.
Bailey Mercer-system design specialist made a visit to my home to provide an estimate for foundation work. He was professional, well-mannered and easy to talk to. Assessment was thorough with all my questions being clearly answered. Great experience overall!
Quenton came to service crawl space sump. He did a thorough inspection of the whole space. Cleaned and serviced sump that was full of clay. Found issues and gave recommendations with pros and cons. He didn't push any unneccessary things. Took pictures of all issues and work and thoroughly explained everything. Installed a new dehumifier and removed old one and hauled away. Would recomnend this guy to anyone. I hope this guy is an example of how the business is run. Excellent job, very happy.
We were in the process of selling our house when the buyer's inspector thought our entire front porch concrete area and a supporting post needed to be replaced due to some minor settling of the concrete. I asked TerraFirma if they would send someone to come and inspect the area and get their opinion. Within a few days of my request, Walt Bateman, a System Design Specialist, came and did an inspection. After spending a lot of time measuring and inspecting the front porch area, Walt spend considerable time explaining to me that the buyer's inspector's recommendation was not warranted and he offered a reasonable and easier solution. I was very impressed with Walt's knowledge and his very simple and reasonable explanation of what he found. Walt was very easy to talk to and extremely personable. My experience with Walt and TerraFirma was extremely positive and I would highly recommend them for the services that they offer.
We had a good experience with Terra Firma. We had 6 different estimates and went with their company because they did not try to sell us on something we didn’t need. After reviewing all the estimates, and talking to Bailey, the system design specialist, we realized that we did not need our foundation lifted to fix our sinking kitchen floor but instead, we needed stabilizing and lifting of the floor joist under our kitchen. TerraFirma also installed a new beam in our family room and lifted our settled concrete in our front walkway. They also buried a downspout which was draining into our front yard next to our walkway.

Every Terra Firma employee who came to our house; Bailey, Jorge, Robert and the rest of their team, were on-time, polite and did their job efficiently. They answered our questions, kept us updated on the work they were doing and cleaned up after themselves. I would definitely recommend this company.
Extremely professional, and above and beyond in their work.
We had a complete encapsulation of our crawl space and sump pump and humidifier system installed. The young men who did the work were very professional. Antonio was the project manager and he was fantastic. Answered questions, explained the process, and made sure we were ok with what they were doing. They showed up at the time designated and called if they would be late. Communication was very good. Shout out to his helpers, Daniel, Jesse, and Kameron. At the end of the project they cleaned up the workspace and made sure things were left like it was before project. Thanks guys.
Jorge and Juan came out to fix the discharge line. Both were very professional and sweet. Two of the best guys I have ever come across! Cherry on top was that my dogs really liked them, the guys did not mind that the dogs were being nosy, matter of fact they took the time to interact with them, not many people do.
If ever anything needs to be fixed I highly recommend asking for them to do the job. Thank you so much for employing such kind and capable, respectful people.
Quoted me $80k for proprietary solutions to some problems I do have, and some I don’t actually have. Took a bunch of pictures, showed them to me, but conveniently never sent them to me and thought it was weird I asked for the proposals to be emailed to me.

I decided to get a few other opinions and boy am I glad I did. Lying to me is one thing, but doubling down on the phone when you call me to ask if I’ve had time to consider scheduling the work is another.

I vote with my wallet and I have zero respect for a company that uses scare tactics or attempts to fudge the truth when they think the consumer isn’t educated enough on the subject to put two and two together.

Being a homeowner is hard and expensive enough… but then you have to navigate whether or not someone is trying to help you or empty your wallet for commission. This was arguably a worse experience than being a woman at the car dealership. No, I am not interested in purchasing blinker fluid…

Edit: With a continuous improvement mindset, I do appreciate someone at Terra Firma reaching out to me directly to understand the details of my experience so they could work to resolve internally.
Seth, awesome job on lifting my garage floor… it’s been a few months now and everything is looking great. Would recommend Seth on any job site, his professionalism and expertise can’t be ignored… Thanks James
