John came to do an inspection of our water proofed basement. He called on his way and was on time. He worked efficiently and was able to show me pictures of his outcomes. He noticed an insulation issue and wrote a quote which we cannot take advantage of at this time. My husband scheduled an appointment for John to come and look at our crawl space for maintenance in the spring. We'll done,John.

Had a free consultation with Tyler GraffMiller from FSM, and he was fantastic. He gave me an honest assessment of the source of my wet basement. He didn’t sell me anything I didn’t need and I am very appreciative of that! I would recommend Tyler and FSM to anyone looking to get an HONEST quote.

John Micah T. came out to repair an issue with water discharge from our pump. He went beyond the call of duty and used his creativity to thaw an exterior pipe and insured all other pipes were tight. Thank you so much John.

Joe came out was very informative about everything that we need to get done, i bought a lot of things for my house for it to be improved, but I've never met a salesman that was so informative. We didn't want him to go period but he had to go cook for his 9 children period Also during the process and he didn't have to say it. Ever dry company. Definitely. Lee gave us a false expectation. I will make sure that foundation systems of Michigan gets spread out. To every. Friend and family that.I know for the rest of my life

We recently bought our first home and after the first heavy rainstorms of the year, we found water in our basement. Jim Nesbitt came out to inspect our foundation and was incredibly kind, professional, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain the issues clearly and helped us understand our options for repairs. As first-time homeowners, we really appreciated his guidance and honesty. We’re looking forward to working with the company to get our basement fixed. Highly recommend!

Clay came and did an exceptional and very thorough inspection of our foundation, basement, and crawl space. In fact, it was the most thorough evaluation I’ve experienced. (My husband and I have had some very bad experiences with evaluations and work done by other companies.) Clay was respectful and genuinely cared about our experience. He wasn’t pushy AT ALL. Also, he took the time to answer our endless questions. He never rushed us. We never felt that we were a burden or had a stupid question. He took the time to show us pictures and measurements to back up his analysis and recommendations. If you have foundation, basement, or crawl space concerns, contact Foundation Systems of Michigan and ask for our “house doctor” Clay!
