What to include in a foundation repair contractor service report
A complete foundation repair contractor service report proves the work you did, justifies the invoice, and protects you if a customer questions the bill later. Here is what every one should cover:
- Property and foundation type — slab-on-grade, pier-and-beam, or block, plus the year built.
- The signs of distress you documented — crack measurements, elevation drop, sticking doors, sloping floors.
- The repair method used — steel push piers, helical piers, or beam-and-base underpinning.
- Pier details that prove the work — number installed, depth driven to refusal, and lift achieved toward level.
- Site and drainage findings that affect the foundation — grading, downspouts, soil moisture.
- Warranty terms and any follow-up recommendation, like regrading or future elevation re-checks.
Frequently asked questions
What should a foundation repair service report include?
A foundation repair report should list the property and foundation type, the distress you documented (crack widths, elevation drop, sticking doors), the repair method used, pier count and depth driven to refusal, the lift achieved toward level, drainage findings, and the warranty terms with any follow-up recommendation.
What is the difference between push piers and helical piers in a report?
Push piers are hydraulically driven straight down to a load-bearing stratum until they hit refusal, then used to lift the structure. Helical piers are screwed into the soil with a torque motor, and capacity is estimated from installation torque. Your report should name the method, the count, and the depth or torque reached so the customer has a record of how the load is supported.
Do I still need an engineer if I use this tool?
Yes when the job calls for it. Many jurisdictions require a licensed professional engineer to seal a structural certification or final elevation survey. This tool produces a clear customer-facing completion report of the work you performed — it does not replace a PE stamp, an engineering report, or a code-required inspection.
Why give the customer a written foundation repair report?
A written report documents exactly which piers went where, how deep, and how much lift was achieved, which is what warranty claims and future home sales depend on. Foundation warranties only cover the specific areas serviced, so a clear record of the work protects both you and the homeowner — and transfers value if they sell.
