Foundation Repair

Foundation Repair Cost and Service for Homes and Businesses in Provo

Provo Foundation Pros handles crack injection, piering, wall stabilization, and basement waterproofing, and the method we recommend depends on what's actually causing the movement, not a flat-rate package. Foundation repair cost in this area swings more on severity and access than on square footage, so we price by job, not by guesswork.

A lot of homes near the Provo urban core are older, with full basements rather than slab-on-grade construction. That means waterproofing and french drains often come up in the same conversation as crack repair, especially after a wet spring. [Contact](/contact) us or keep reading below for details on cost, materials, and timing.

Why choose us

Why choose Provo Foundation Pros

  • Diagnosis before a price tag

    We identify the cause, hydrostatic pressure, bench-soil shift, or settlement, before we recommend piering, injection, or stabilization.

  • Methods matched to Wasatch bench soil

    Soil here doesn't move like valley clay. The repair method follows what the inspection actually finds, not a default package.

  • Written scope, not a verbal guess

    Provo Foundation Pros puts the method, materials, and price range on paper before any excavation starts.

  • Dime-sized holes, not tear-out

    Polyurethane lifting uses small drill points. No jackhammers, no full slab replacement unless the slab is actually failing.

Materials

Materials and Methods We Use

We use products suited to freeze-thaw cycles and Utah's mix of expansive and sandy soils, not whatever's cheapest at the supply yard.

  • Steel Push Piers photo

    Steel Push Piers

    Driven to load-bearing soil or bedrock to support and stabilize structures.

  • Helical Piers photo

    Helical Piers

    Screwed to load-bearing soil or bedrock. Standard for Wasatch bench areas where shifting soil undermines a shallow footing.

  • Epoxy Injection photo

    Epoxy Injection

    Used to seal and bond cracks to restore structural integrity.

  • Polyurethane Foam photo

    Polyurethane Foam

    A lightweight expanding material used to lift and level concrete surfaces.

  • Drainage Membrane photo

    Drainage Membrane

    Installed to channel water away from foundation walls and reduce hydrostatic pressure.

  • Carbon Fiber Straps photo

    Carbon Fiber Straps

    Applied to walls to reinforce against bowing or lateral pressure.

When to call

When to Call for Foundation Repair

Any of these warrant a call. Request a Free Estimate and we'll take a look.

  • A driveway sinking near the garage, often settlement under the slab.
  • Diagonal cracks spreading across a basement wall, usually active structural movement.
  • A basement wall bowing inward after spring snowmelt, classic hydrostatic pressure.
  • Patio or walkway sections pooling water after rain, a drainage problem that will eventually reach the foundation.
  • Doors or windows binding that didn't before, a sign of shifting.

    5 out of 5 stars

    Price was way more affordable than the other quotes we got for basement wall stabilization & waterproofing. Still felt premium — clean jobsite, solid finish, and I'd hire them again without thinking twice.

    Honestly did not expect such a professional team. They showed up on time, explained every step, and the push pier & helical pier installation turned out better than I pictured.

    Called Provo Foundation Pros after a neighbor tip in Provo. Super easy to deal with — clear answers, no runaround, and they actually cared about the details on our foundation repair.

Common questions

Foundation Repair FAQs

How much could a foundation repair cost in Provo?

It depends heavily on method. Crack injection runs a few hundred dollars. Piering or wall stabilization can run several thousand per wall or per pier. A free estimate gets you an exact number for your situation.

How do I seal a crack in my foundation?

A narrow, non-widening hairline crack can sometimes be sealed with a store-bought epoxy kit as a stopgap. That's cosmetic work, though. If the crack is diagonal, stepped, or wider than a quarter inch, sealing it yourself can hide a structural problem instead of fixing it.

How long does Foundation Repair take?

A single crack injection can wrap up in a few hours. Piering jobs with multiple piers usually run two to five days depending on access and pier count. We'll give you a realistic window after the inspection.

Do I need a permit for Foundation Repair?

Structural work like underpinning, pier installation, and wall bracing usually needs one. Crack injection and minor patching usually doesn't. We check with Utah County before anything structural starts.

Is DIY Foundation Repair a good idea?

For a hairline, non-structural crack, a DIY epoxy kit is a reasonable stopgap. For anything showing movement, a bowing wall, a stepped crack, sticking doors, DIY sealing just buys time while the underlying cause keeps working against the house.

What's the difference between underpinning and piering?

Piering is the method, steel or helical piers driven to stable soil or bedrock. Underpinning is the broader term for adding that support beneath an existing foundation. In practice, most piering jobs are a form of underpinning.

How do I find foundation repair near me in Provo?

Look for a crew that inspects before quoting and names the actual method, not just a flat 'foundation repair' line item. Provo Foundation Pros serves the Provo area and the surrounding Utah County communities.

Is it normal for basement walls to bow after snow melts?

It's common enough that we see it every spring. Snowmelt saturates the soil around a foundation and builds hydrostatic pressure against basement walls. A small amount of seasonal flex might be nothing, but visible bowing or new cracking usually means it's time for wall stabilization.
