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.

Good customer service, good quality work and timely.
Brian was great, super friendly and professional. He gave us a very thorough bid after completing an extensive inspection.
I recently requested an evaluation from Terra Firma for a vacation property, far from many resources, and where many companies will not work. Bailey came out, on time, prepared to do a full examination of the issue and give me a quote with options before even leaving the property. I was greatly surprised by the response. Bailey was extremely professional but also personal, and also educational. I wasn't even sure if we had an issue that needed attention in the near future. He helped me to understand the nature of the issues and the best steps forward to having a safer and better protected home. Terra Firma was also extremely patient as I did more research and confirmed the findings. We now have a plan for how to move forward. I would highly recommend Terra Firma both for their work, but also for how they care for their employees. They are not just looking for a job and money, but are truly looking to partner to make life better for all involved.
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.
Seth C. was really helpful this morning. It has been raining so much lately and he was able to walk me through all the issues my daylight basement and garage can have and how TerraFirma fixes them. Really appreciate you--/thanks so much Seth
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.
Bailey was timely and thorough in his assessment, estimate, and reporting on my inquiry about a foundation crack. Although I decided not to have any work done at this time I was pleased with their service.
TerraFirma Foundation Systems is excellent at basement waterproofing. Be sure to ask about all the available options so you can choose the one that’s right for you. The company is very capable, but it’s important to do your research before making a decision.

The crew—Antonio, Jessi, and Casey—worked extremely well together. Antonio is especially sharp; whenever I suggested an idea, he immediately understood what I meant and offered an even better solution on the spot.
We were concerned that our foundation was uneven. Tulane came out, thoroughly inspected our home and confirmed we had uneven flooring/ foundation issues throughout our house and garage. He offered us a few different resolutions and was super informative about what to expect. We chose to proceed and address the issues. Bree reached out and was super helpful with scheduling and even accommodating us when we had to reschedule. Robert came out today, explained the process, then got started to work. He was super respectful of our property and worked so efficiently he was able to get the job completed in 1 day vs 2 days. Terrafirma was able to resolve all of our issues & was super easy to work with! Thank you again
They scheduled for a week but were done in 3 & half days.
Worked around my gigantic existing sump pump cleaned out debris from the plumbers and sealed off my crawls space. Travis & is team were fantastic! Highly recommend the company & Travis's team to everyone.
Very thorough and informative.
We had some basement flooding in our house and after learning the cause, we started the work of getting quotes and inspections from Foundation specialists. When we called TerraFirma, Bailey was able to make time for our inspection within the week. From the jump, Bailey was very communicative, and set expectations upfront. He asked what was going on, looked at some suspected intrusion points and then let me know he'd carry on with the inspection and would let me know when he was ready for me. No awkward standing around or wondering how long it would take. Bailey was very thorough with his inspection and had an impressive presentation once he'd made a diagnosis. He told me his ideas and then asked me mine and we both felt good about the plan walking away from it. Ultimately our timeline didn't work out and we personally had to go a different direction, but if it did I'm confident we'd be in good hands with Bailey and TerraFirma!
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
I had Bailey come out to do an estimate for crawlspace encapsulation and some drainage work in the basement. Bailey spent 2 hours at the house and on the phone with me in total (not counting the work he did on his own), doing a very thorough work up of the house and patiently explaining what my options were, and what might be better for my renovation contractor to do. I really appreciated Bailey's willingness to think through different options - some that didn't include work for his company - and teach me about crawlspaces!
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!

Very knowledgeable and professional
Arrived on time finished in one cleaned up everything
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 hired TerraFirma to fix our foundation. They inspected thoroughly, explained the plan, and completed the repairs professionally. The process was smooth, and we’re thrilled with the results. Highly recommend TerraFirma!
I met with Walt Bateman this week to discuss an issue I have that sounded like TerraFirma was a good place to look for a professional opinion. Walt shared his expertise and extensive knowledge of about 30 years of experience in the Eugene / Springfield area regarding geotechnical and residential construction issues and solutions to foundation and concrete structural issues in our wet environment. We discussed a variety of potential alternatives and he left me a relatively easy and cost effective solution for my project. I was very pleased to meet Walt and happy with his response just one day after contacting TerraFirma. I highly recommend Walt as an honest straight shooting guy and happy to get his opinion for my project. Thanks to Walt and TerraFirma, Steve Z, Springfield, OR.
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++++
Elijah did a fantastic job breaking down everything going on in my crawlspace and providing the estimates to get the repairs.
Extremely professional, and above and beyond in their work.
TerraFirma made a major error when fixing the foundation for the overhang of our Enumclaw Plateau Historical Society museum. The posts were not properly spaced, giving the front of the building an uneven appearance. When the error was pointed out to them, they admitted it, and apologized. They paid the repair costs without argument. According to a businessman on our board, this is an unusual occurrence. I want to give them kudos for their management acting with integrity.
If you hire this company to put sump pumps in your basement, make sure you know exactly where they are going to put them and where the pipes that will pump the water outside will be coming out of your house.
Even though one guy gives you a diagram ahead of time, that doesn’t mean the guy actually doing the work follows it.
One sump pump was put in our basement just as we expected. The second one was not. We provided new electrical outlets dedicated for use to the sump pumps. The second pump now has cords hanging in mid air barely reaching the new plugs because that pump was not put where they told us it would be. Also, the pipes that take the water away from the house, we expected those to go through the foundation, not through the expensive cedar siding and be exposed on the front of our house! I was horrified to see those holes and said so. My husband redirected them to drill through the foundation so the pipes could not be seen once the work was done. They did that, but now we are left with holes to repair. They did not offer to repair them.
The young men who did the work were kind and respectful and did what they thought were expected of them, but if you hire this company, make sure you know exactly where they are going to put everything and not assume anything even if you have a diagram!
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.
I am handicapped and use a wheelchair. Part of my sidewalk had sunk 3 1/2 inches. Schylur came in and had it completely level and sealed in just an hour or so. Couldn’t be happier.
Estimator, installer, and office communications staff were all great. Each person kept me well informed and up to date on progress. I have recommended Terra Firma to neighbors who may need help.
Terra Firma is a wonderful company to work with. The scheduling and prompt arrival of the team to my house was exemplary. They were careful and knowledgeable and thorough with all of their work.
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.
Travis and his crew were absolutely outstanding. They were very friendly, clean and neat during the process. They informed us of a leak that we had no idea about. Saving us costly damage, we truly appreciate it.
I had to go in the crawlspace since they completed the job. Absolutely amazing! Prior to them completing the job, whenever I had to go under, I was 50% sure something was going to jump out and kill me. Now, I feel I can easily camp out there with confidence.
Thanks guys, Amazing!! Money well spent.
Wish you all the best, for all your hard work.
Skylar did an outstanding job. Very knowledgeable. Very pleased with the results. Joe Henslee
Mike, Steve and their crew from Terra Firma were outstanding. They were professional, on time and did some amazing work. I was very impressed with how they answered my questions and their quality of work. I would highly recommend Terra Firma for any of your foundation needs.
Good job it looks great and I would definitely recommend your company
Bailey did a fantastic job inspecting my crawl space and designing a solution that fit my needs. I really appreciated his thorough evaluation, detailed explanations, and professionalism. I will keep TerraFirma in mind for future projects.
From bid to project completion, this team has been fantastic. Derek took the time during th ebid process to explain what I needed and why I needed it. He treated me like a compentent human and gave me the info necessary to make a good decision. The crew of guys who did the work were fantastic. It's never easy to have people in your home, but Aris, Fernando, and Tyler were hard-working, gracious, and willing to keep me informed about each stage of the process. This was a significant improvement over our former crawlspace techs and we couldn't be happier. Thanks, guys!
Geovany, Diego and Eric were professional and addressed any questions or issues we had.
Great team!
Both crew's were on time. The crawlspace crew put down plastic from the front door to the crawlspace entrance in a bedroom. Work was completed on time, our closet doors reattached and the areas they worked in or went through left clean and tidy. The sidewalk crew completed their work in a day and even patched a crack we had forgotten to mention to the estimator. If TerraFirma also did crawlspace insulation, that would have been great, but I had to find another company for the insulation.
Jason came out and worked on my sump underneath my house. He did a great job and everything was OK. Thank you Jason.
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.
