Common concerns
Foundation Warning Signs Worth a Second Look
Most people reach out because something has changed and they cannot tell how serious it is. That is a reasonable place to start.
Cracks you cannot read
A diagonal line above a door frame or a stair-step crack in block work means something. Width alone does not tell you what. We measure the pattern and the movement before calling it anything.
Floors that have gone out of level
Sloping floors, doors that bind in one season, a gap opening where a wall meets the ceiling. These often trace to crawl space framing rather than the perimeter foundation, and the fix differs completely.
Water arriving every wet season
Puget Sound rain is sustained rather than dramatic, which is why basements leak in January and stay dry in July. Whether you need drainage or waterproofing depends on how the water is getting in.
Quotes you cannot compare
Two proposals, two numbers, no shared language. We itemise quantities, depths, and exclusions so you can see what each line is actually paying for and where the two differ.

How an Evaluation Works
Four steps from the first message to a decision you can actually make. Nothing is committed until you have the written scope in front of you.
-
Step 01
Tell us what you see
Send the observations, photos, and rough timeline through the quote form. We'll tell you what an evaluation would examine and what it cannot establish from a photo.
-
Step 02
On-site evaluation
We record accessible observations and take multi-point laser manometer elevation readings, so floor differentials are measured rather than estimated by eye.
-
Step 03
Findings and limits explained
You get a plain explanation of what the findings do and do not indicate, including the limits of a visual assessment and whether an engineer should be involved.
-
Step 04
Written scope and next step
If repair is warranted, the proposal states quantities, depths, permit notes, and explicit exclusions. If it is not, we say that too.

Customer experience
What Sammamish Customers Say
The evaluation was calm and thorough. They explained which cracks were cosmetic and which were load-bearing, and gave us a written scope with clear exclusions before any work.
Homeowner, Queen Anne
Queen Anne, WA
Our floors had started to slope near the kitchen. They audited the crawl space, showed us the failing posts, and fixed the moisture source too, not just the framing.
Homeowner, Ballard
Ballard, WA
We wanted a seismic retrofit before selling. They walked us through the SDCI Standard Plan and were honest that our older masonry needed an engineer's review.

Local knowledge
Plateau Drainage and City Review
On the plateau, the issue is usually where water goes rather than how much arrives. Discharge routing on subdivision lots with limited daylight outlets needs planning before a drain is installed.
Sammamish permits through its own city department, and critical-area requirements apply on some sloped parcels.

City of Sammamish
Requirements differ between jurisdictions. We confirm which applies to your parcel before quoting rather than assuming Seattle rules carry over.

Local questions
Sammamish Questions
Where does drainage water go on a plateau lot?
That is exactly the question to settle before installing anything. Options include a daylight outlet, a tightline to an approved discharge point, or a pumped system. Installing a drain without a planned outlet just moves the problem.
Do you cover Klahanie and Trossachs?
Yes, along with Pine Lake, Beaver Lake, Inglewood, and the rest of Sammamish.
Is a newer home immune to foundation problems?
No. Newer construction reduces some risks but drainage failures, fill settlement, and flatwork problems still occur. What matters is what you are actually observing.
Still have a question?
Send us what you're noticing and we'll tell you plainly what it might mean and what an evaluation would examine.
