Free Inspection Licensed Engineers Lifetime Warranty All Foundation Types

Properties across Westmoreland County sit on soils with variable expansive risk, making foundation movement a persistent concern for New Kensington homeowners. When clay-rich soils absorb moisture they swell, and when they dry they shrink - creating cyclical stress on every foundation in the area. Notably, 75.0% of the county's housing stock was built before 1980, meaning many homes feature older foundation designs, inadequate drainage, and materials that have been exposed to decades of soil stress. Foundation Repair Crew connects New Kensington homeowners with licensed structural engineers who provide a free foundation inspection, written diagnosis, and repair recommendations - at no cost and no obligation. With a median home value of $116,300 and 60.0% owner-occupancy rate in Westmoreland County, most New Kensington residents have significant equity at stake when foundation damage threatens their property. Professional foundation repair protects that investment by addressing damage at the source - with lifetime warranties and engineering documentation that transfers with the home.
