Business ProfileforThrasher Foundation Repair

I called Thrasher Foundation Repair because I believed the concrete slab floor of my house was sinking. I based this assumption on the new appearance of cracks in the interior walls, gaps underneath the bathtub, and doors that no longer close. ******** **** * ******** ***** ******* *o investigate. I believe he intentionally lied to me. ****** said there was a three inch drop, but did not specify the points associated with the drop. Based on my assessment, the drop in the floor was significantly less than three inches. ****** said all cement slab floors are placed on the foundation. This is not true. ****** said he dug down on the outside foundation and saw that the floor was placed on the foundation. There was no evidence of digging on the outside of the foundation. ****** said that the house needed twelve piers placed around the foundation for support, which would cost $38,223.38. ****** pressured me to immediately accept the bid. Thrasher sent a second salesman (**** *******) to provide a second opinion. ******* tapped the floor with the end of a four-foot level and said that there was a hollow space under the slab (I question whether it’s possible to tell through 31/2 inches of concrete covered by carpeting). ******* said the foundation was fine. ******* recommended foam injection under the entire floor to lift and stabilize the floor. He quoted a cost of $9,459.22, which I accepted. My concern is that if I had been less familiar with house construction or had been more gullible, I would have paid nearly $29,000 more than was necessary for repairs that were not needed and could have actually caused damage to my undamaged foundation. I am concerned that other elderly people in similar situations may be taken advantage of and provided unnecessary and costly repairs by **** ****** ** ************** ** *********
