Foundation installation that starts with the drawings

A foundation is what holds the building up, and it starts with concrete footings poured in trenches dug into the ground. People call us with a lot and a set of plans, for a house, a garage or a shop with a concrete parking lot out front.

A foundation starts on paper, so we work from your drawings and sort out the plans and any soil report the office asks for before anybody breaks ground. The price moves with the size of the building, how deep the footings go and how hard the dig is, and the schedule turns on the permit and the inspections. I'll give you your own number on site.

About us

How your foundation can go in

Get a quote
  1. Foundation now, building later

    The city has a Foundation Only permit, so this suits you if you want the foundation in now and the building framed later.

  2. Built with the house

    When a builder runs the job, we work to their schedule, and under state rules the license question falls on whoever prices the job to you.

  3. Soils study first

    Maury County can ask for a soils study, so we ask early, since some soils swell when wet and settle when dry, which can crack floors and walls.

  4. Historic district lots

    In Columbia's historic districts, new construction needs a Certificate of Appropriateness first, so ask about that before we schedule the dig.

Why people hire us for foundations

  • I look at it myself

    I come out to see the lot and give the estimate, then I'm on the job running our crew from the trenches to the last inspection.

  • Licensed for jobs this size

    In Tennessee, whoever bids you $25,000 or more, materials and labor included, needs a state contractor's license, and the county checks it at the permit. We're fully licensed and insured.

  • Since 2021, prep first

    I framed houses on slabs that weren't square before starting this business in 2021, so we spend the time on grade and forms. Call (931) 286-9065 to set up a visit.
