I had a great experience with Foundation Systemsof Michigan. Scott C. came out to provide a free estimate for moisture issues in my basement. He was punctual, knowledgeable, and took the time to thoroughly assess the situation. I appreciated his clear explanations and the insights he offered about potential solutions. It was reassuring. I highly recommend this service to anyone concerned about their foundation or moisture problems!

Tom came to our house to look at a failing retaining wall. He was prompt, friendly and courteous. He spent a lot of time studying the issues and working with their team of experts to find a potential solution. Ultimately, they informed me that there was none. I knew going into the appointment that this was a distinct possibility and applaud them for their candor and honesty. A lesser company could easily have offered a sub- optimal proposal that would not have solved the problems and cost a lot of money.

SEE COMMENT BELOW THIS ONE.Chris P., Chad B., Mike T., and David were a Professional team. Had Crawl Space Waterproofing installed. They took time to answer questions. They had a great rapport among themselves and me as the customer. They went above their duties. Would recommend FSM professionals. Recommendation to the work crew that did the installation. Thank you all so very much!ADDING TO THIS REVIEW.As time has gone by have had 2 issues so far with the work that has been done.1. NEEDED A SUMP PUMP WAS TOLD BY THE SALES REP not necessary (WRONG) 2.Dehumidifier has moisture and is dripping or draining the water out onto the encapsulation. Now my dehumidifier is corroded and looks awful. Is the dehumidifier to have been connected to the sump pump???????No answer for that question at this time.Another issue the encapsulation on the walls of crawl space has come down for a SECOND time.The repair crew COULD NOT BE HERE FOR 3 WEEKS AFTER THE INIITIAL CALL. SO………NOW THERE IS EVEN MORE WATER IN THE CRAWL SPACE.No recommendation at this time. It takes away from my time when I have to schedule a repair that should not have even happened.

As usual FSM’s team is always on point with the follow up maintenance inspections on my basement. My basement has had no water infiltration since they completed the waterproofing back in 2020. Dan came out today reviewed some options with me that I had questions on which helped me out tremendously!

During the ice storm of 2025, I lost power for eight days. FSM had encapsulated my Crawl Space August 2024. During the power outage, the crawlspace filled with approximately 18 inches of water. I just had Cameron P out to make sure everything is up and running. He checked the battery, the dehumidifier and the sump pumps. All is well! Highly recommended! Cameron was very knowledgeable, very personable and thorough. Two 👍👍

Delivered exactly as promised. I ended up not having to use their services but, our service representative really delivered. Jake McCurdy was prompt and provided the most thorough “free” inspection service I have ever received. He did not try to sale me things unnecessarily. He presented his findings, educated me on the options and risks if I did not go with the repairs. It was a memorable experience-wish I had called them before I finished my basement. I am currently going to try to eliminate the problem at the source. If that doesn’t work- I will be calling FSM back.

They showed up promptly every morning of the job, communicated their progress each day, and answered all of our questions before giving us the final tour of the work they completed. They provided excellent service and did excellent work.

Hunter, Cody and Dawson did a great job with our foundation and crawl space. Hunter kept us up to speed on what they were doing and did a good job explaining it to us. The whole crew was professional and courteous, and they cleaned up after themselves every time they were there.
