Our shop is right here at 550 SE Y Hwy. When your foundation is moving, that means an inspector at your door the same week, not whenever an out-of-town crew happens to be passing through Johnson County.
Warrensburg sits on the heavy clay soils common across west-central Missouri. Those soils swell when saturated and shrink hard during a dry August, and that cycle is the single most common cause of the settling, stair-step cracking and basement seepage we are called out for in town.
Older homes near the downtown square and the neighborhoods around the University of Central Missouri tend to show it first, often as doors that stop latching or a floor that develops a noticeable slope. The newer subdivisions on the edges of town have their own version: backfill around a young foundation that has not finished settling, and lots graded toward the house.
Every visit starts with a free inspection and a written scope before any work begins. No pressure, no upsells disguised as necessary repairs.

Every job starts with a free inspection at your home. We look at the floors, walls, brick, crawl space or basement, and we check how water moves around the house, because drainage is often the real cause. We measure what has moved, explain what we found in plain language, and give you a written estimate before any work begins. No pressure, no obligation.
Foundation problems rarely fix themselves, and they get worse after each wet spring or dry summer. Working from our Warrensburg shop means we respond quickly, we know how the local clay behaves, and we are easy to reach after the job. Near the square, out toward Knob Noster, or in the country around Johnson County, we are close.
Our office is here in Warrensburg, so an inspector can usually be at your door the same week.
We look at what you are seeing, such as stair-step cracks, sticking doors or sloping floors, work out the likely cause, and give you a written scope before any work begins.
Constantly. Brick veneer over old footings, pier and beam crawl spaces, and basements that were never meant to be dry. We know what to expect under them.
