Fabulous..Explained everything. Professional all the way

Just came today and I was very impressed with Schylar P. He realized the bumper in the truck was going to scape on our driveway since it is on a steep hill and went to Home Depot to get some 4”x6” to raise the wheels up. He drilled probably 50 holes in our driveway and injected foam in them to fill the voids under the driveway. It took about 5 hours. He explained things well and patiently answered our questions. The price we were quoted was expensive but was very close to the other bid we got.

***Please note -- I updated my review from 1 to 5 stars. Terra Firma took the initiative to reach out and assess any next steps needed to correct the problem. Trust is 100% restored knowing that if problems come up they will take any action needed to follow up. I will also say that the work they originally did was actually to code, and we agreed that the moisture problems arose due to the nonstandard setup of my dehumidifier, NOT because of errors in Terra Firma's work. Thank you Terra Firma.*** Unfortunately, I have to drop a negative review in the interest of warning other folks that their work has gone downhill. I previously had an excellent experience with Terra Firma for management of a water problem in my crawlspace. I hired them without question again for my current property for management of moisture issues, and I didn't check their work upon completion as thoroughly as I should have. Unfortunately, about 1 - 2 months after completion of work, I discovered a large mushroom growing out of one of the structural posts in my crawl/basement. On closer inspection, I noticed that the dehumidifier water discharge line they installed was dumping less than a foot away from my foundation, corresponding to the exact spot the mushroom was growing. Moisture was the exact problem they were supposed to fix, but now they have created a severe structural problem secondary to moisture with the dehumidifier line dumping large quantities of water right next to my foundation. In other words, they created the exact issue they were purporting to fix by collecting the moisture and depositing it into my foundation. Once fruiting bodies are growing out of wood, this is an indicator that the wood is severely compromised and the fungus network has grown extensively. I now have a very expensive and serious problem to fix. I called to let them know about the problem, not sure if I will hear back from the coordinator/ the team who did the work. I am not sure if I would trust them to fix the issue after the damage they have caused, but I would accept financial remediation. If they take steps to make things right, I would update my review. I would not hire Terra Firma again for any crawlspace work, be it structural or moisture related because of the big problem they have caused. Again, just would like to warn others.

In short "WOW". Enough said. Living on the coast and sand moves with the rain at times. bought 8 yrs ago garage floor was sinking to one side. Finally called TerraFirma. What they did was amazing. lifted the floor as much as 4 inches in one section. As work was going on he explained what was happening with each step as I watched curiously. The wife was very reluctant to have them come now says we should have sooner. Even the patio door at the end of the garage works correctly now too. And something else I saw..... Customer Service is still alive and living in TerraFirma, Thank you to the TerraFirma people of Roseburg, Or. Salute to each and every one of them

replacing concrete slab.

Great customer service from start to finish. Appreciate the follow up calls from the project manager to make sure everything was done to my satisfaction. Very pleased with the work TerraFirma did in our basement and crawl space.

We called TerraFirma with a pretty significant problem. We had just purchased a home and were a bit misled on a couple of items. The basement and crawlspace were mold infested (which we did know). What we did not know was that at times of the year, there would be some standing water in the crawlspace. We also didn't know that the drain from the sump pump was actually underwater (adjacent lake), nor did we know the pool backflushed into that same line and actually would enter the crawlspace whenever that process occured. The crawlspace was unvented and unconditioned....the perfect storm of BAD! Our goal was to first remediate the mold and then resolve the issues that allowed the mold to grow in the first place. Enter Terra Firma. Tulane and Terra Firma stood head and shoulders above every other company I spoke with. It wasn't jus that they were going to fix it- we literally walked through every step and every product-I knew what I was buying before we started. The crew was professional, on time and did exactly what they said they would do and in the time frame promised. With Terra Firma, we waterproofed and encapsulated our crawlspace, we insulated the crawlspace, we installed new sub floor drainage with new sump pumps with battery backup to lower the water table under the house (that now drains above the high water line), we installed new structural floor posts where others had rotted, we installed a bypass for the pool overflow and we installed dehumidification and we are in the process of now conditioning the space. Terra Firma led the way and did an excellent job both on the communication and on the installation (at the price originally quoted!). I would highly recommend this firm for anyone with complex and challenging crawlspace issues. Great work and fantastic team from start to finish! Bruce McKee

Fernando and Eddie did a great job on our dual crawlspace project. Our floors are level, structure secure, and crawlspace is clean and pleasant - almost human livable! Wish we had done this sooner!

Replaced the dehumidifier, improved water drainage from sup pump, and cleaned up debris in craw space.

When we first bought our 1900s fixer upper, we had no idea what lurked behind the walls of the illegal basement apartment. Once we opened up the space we were in for quite the surprise. All the wooden post holding up the main beam of the house were rotted through at the base. You could stick a pencil through the old, soft wood. Working with TerraFirma to fix the issue was an easy choice. Eric came out to assess our problem. He was friendly and professional as he walked me through the process that was needed to fix our foundation. It wasn't going to be cheap. Don't expect this kind of work to be inexpensive (especially on older homes). We needed concrete to be cut, 2ft cubic footers poured, and six shiny new steel posts. (And while they were coming out anyway, we had them do seismic retrofitting too). There's all kinds of math and engineering that goes into determining what's needed to structurally support a home. TerraFirma handles it all. And they are experienced enough to know what it's going to cost. One of the best parts of working with them (besides the friendly employees and professional workers) is that the price they quote you is going to be the price. Full stop. There are no unexpected add ons at the end. I can sleep well at night knowing TerraFirma's work is holding up our home. A few months later when the rains started in earnest and our basement flooded (an issue we guessed had been going on for a while, hidden by those illegal apartment walls and leading to the rotting of the old wood posts) we knew who to call. Eric came out again to look at options for a sump pump system and even worked on adjusting those plans (while he was on winter vacation with his family!!) when we discovered that a third wall was seeping water and we needed a much larger amount of fixing than originally thought. We no longer have to worry during downpours. While our old fixer upper still needs a lot of work and love, we know that we are (literally) starting from a strong, solid foundation thanks to TerraFirma.

I was very happy with every step that Terra Firma took and all of the team members involved. I was able to get a very fast response and a quick booking for the work to be performed. I'd like to thank RJ for the thorough walk through and clear explanation of the issues and possible solutions. I'd also like to thank Antonio and his crew for the awesome job they did and the ability to get it all done in one day! I wouldn't hesitate to use them again and would recommend them to anybody needing the services they offer.

Zackery N. did a fabulous job for us. Especially impressive was his ability to predict how a badly cracked large concrete slab would behave during the jacking process and thereby avoided breaking it further. Beautiful job leveling throughout and filling the cracks and joints on 30 year old concrete driveway and large patios. Upon arrival, Zack reviewed the project with me and walked me through his execution plan, patiently answering all my questions. It was a 2-day project and Zack provided a status update after the first day, with an update on planned activities upon arrival on day 2. Thank you for a job well done!
