Local to Savannah

We connect property owners in Savannah and nearby areas, including Historic District, Victorian District, Thomas Square and Midtown, Ardsley Park, Isle of Hope and Thunderbolt, with one independent local foundation repair specialist.

What we do

Savannah Foundation is a lead referral service. We are not a foundation contractor. When you call (912) 771-1041 or send the form, we connect you with one independent local foundation and crawl space contractor who works in your part of Savannah.

That contractor comes to your home, does a free inspection, and gives you a written estimate. If you choose to hire them, they do the work, and your agreement is directly with them.

Why we started this site

Foundation and crawl space problems are stressful. You find a soft spot in the floor or water under the house after a storm, you search online, and you find a long list of names with no prices and no plain answers. We built this site to give Savannah homeowners straight information first: why houses here move, what the fixes are, how flood zone rules can change them, and what they typically cost. Then one call gets a local crew out to look.

What it costs you

Nothing. There is no fee to use Savannah Foundation, and the inspection is free. Contractors pay us for referrals. You never pay us, and you decide whether to hire anyone.

What to ask for from any contractor

Whoever you hire for foundation or crawl space work, it is smart to ask for:

  • A written estimate based on floor level readings across the whole house.
  • Photos of what they found under the house or around the slab.
  • A clear list of what will be installed or replaced, and where.
  • A plan for the water, not just the supports.
  • Proof of insurance and a Georgia contractor licence where the job needs one.
  • The warranty in writing, including whether it transfers when you sell.
  • Who pulls the permit, and whether flood zone or historic review applies.
