Maintenance
& Service

I had a positive experience with vapor barrier application to my basement walls, a draining system install that wraps around the basement walls, installation of a sump pump, foundation crack repair, sealing/ vapor barrier install in a crawlspace.

Marcus performed the 5th annual checkup on our TerraFirma (TF) foundation system. Like all TF technicians we've dealt with, Marcus was very professional with a solid understanding of our system. He checked both pumps and the dehumidifier. He also assessed the general condition of our crawl space. When he finished the inspection, he reported his findings (favorable!) and showed us pictures where he cleaned up around the pumps.This is a great company. I recommend TerraFirma wholeheartedly.

My pest inspector found a lot of water in my crawl space after a routine inspection. A plumber found no leaks and believed it to be ground water. TerraFirma responded to my needs promptly and ended up digging a ditch around the inside perimeter of my crawl space, inserted pipe and covered with river rock for drainage. A sump pump was installed inside to drain outside. They took such care with the drain they dug outside that when they were finished you could hardly tell where they had dug the ditch. They took such care to protect my home - especially since the crawl space access was inside my home. They protected my floors and walls very carefully and completely - even with having to bring in numerous wheelbarrows of rock. They also cleaned up both inside and outside my home so you couldn't tell anyone had worked all day to completed this large job. They did an amazing job!!! Thank you TerraFirma for your great work ethic and service.

My 50 yr old house was beginning to slide down and sideways off the hill. Terra Firma fixed it! The warranty is for 75 years, and goes with the house, so future owners are protected. Professional hard working people. Recommend them 100%.

My encounters with TerraFirma have been great so far. During an initial "inspection"/quote for a few potential projects, they mentioned how their company had been born out of a desire to provide exceptional customer service where other companies in the field were not, and I feel it really shows. The information I was provided was well-explained and never felt like a sales pitch - simply information presented to allow me to make the decisions I needed to. It also came from someone who seemed like they had hands-on experience in the work, not just a representative in a uniform. I also received no "pestering" beyond this appointment, which I appreciated - I get that follow-up is a way that business try to hook new work, but the company I'd gotten a quote from two years prior still calls and emails me to this day, which gets annoying. That same company had also quoted me a price quite a bit higher for the same work, so despite someone commenting to me that TerraFirma was "the pricier option," their offer was a fantastic deal to me.I went ahead with scheduling the first project, crawlspace drainage and sump pump installation. The work was done well and cleanly, and communication throughout and after was great. I definitely plan to contact them again when I'm ready to tackle some higher-cost projects, and feel I don't need to bother with quotes from anyone else to know I'll be getting great work for a competitive price.

Marcus was here today doing the annual inspection. Best inspection we’ve had. Best inspector we’ve had, although all of them are good people. Fixed what was needed, cleaned filter on dehumidifier and cleaned sump pump. This gives us a secure feeling that everything is right. Thanks Marcus.

I had my annual crawl space inspection and would like to give five stars to Adam for his professionalism, courtesy and thoroughness in his approach to his job.

Great experience, highly recommend! Replaced a faulty sump with a much better setup. Thank you, Terra Firma ❤️

Today, Marcus, from Terra Firma arrived to do annual service and maintenance on our sump pumps. He was very professional and also friendly. He's the first to show me videos of what is actually in the crawl space and the work he had done, and also explain the need for a new battery with next year's maintenance, which I appreciated. He unexpectedly had to do work above and beyond when my 80 pound Lab/Shepherd mix suddenly jumped into the crawl space, by helping retrieve her. Thank you, Marcus--everything well done.

Our 50's ranch sits on solid sandstone, and we've always had ground water running underneath and puddling, making the house damp and keeping us chasing mold and mildew. We figured there wasn't much we could do. But last spring during heavy rains, the old positive flow drain at the bottom of our large crawlspace collapsed and allowed three feet of water to accumulate, destroying the water heater and missing the suspended furnace by a half an inch. We stuck a temporary sump pump down there but it ran constantly and we were afraid to go away even for a few days. A brief power outage would have us biting our nails wondering if the crawlspace would fill up again. Finally we called TerraFirma. The house has a weird layout with odd additions here and there, but they came up with a plan to capture as much ground water as possible and route it to a three-way backup sump pump system. The team arrived and in one day had the drains and sump pit dug (out of solid sandstone, yet!) and the pump system installed. The crew was fast, polite and efficient. They even pointed out a plumbing leak I didn't know about that wasn't helping the situation at all! Now, for the first time in thirteen years, the crawlspace is dry--really dry, no more puddles, no more mold, the house is so much more pleasant, and we don't have to worry about going away or power outs. And if and when we decide to sell the house, we can assure potential buyers that they won't have to worry about dampness or flooding. The service plan is transferrable, which is even better. We were very impressed with TerraFirma and would recommend them for hard-to-solve water issues.Update September 2020: Went to refi the house and the TerraFirma treatment was a big plus for us!
