"A winning team of professionals"

Monday, 31 May 2010 23:28 by Ryan Gummer

We recently received a letter from the Niedbala family in Spring Hill discussing how pleased they were with the work of our company. They highlighted their happiness from the start of the repair process when they met with our senior consultant Dave Toler to the physical work that was executed to their property by our crews. It is so nice when we receive letters like this, because it lets us know that we are hitting out marks in all the aspects of a project.

Dear Mr. Ryan Gummer,

We are taking the time to write this letter to you because so often people write letters because of bad experiences they have.... not the good ones. Well, this is a letter about a GOOD experience that we had.

We wanted to take this opportunity to say thank you to your TEAM of professionals that handled the soil stabilization at our home. From the first time we spoke with Dave Toler and his assistant Donna, to our first time meeting your drilling crew and then Reed and the grouting crew.... we were impressed all the way to the end!

We have never seen or talked to such a nice bunch of people. They were all genuine, kind, respectful and hard working. We have heard horror stories from others.....and we were scared. But, your crew was incredible. They made us feel at ease. We were proud to have them at our home. We could not believe how clean they would leave everything at the end of each day!

Thank you so much for taking the time to seek out and retain such good people! Everyone was a pleasure to have at our home. We have 3 children and 2 dogs and many vehicles around our property. They always took the time to make sure all of our belongings were top priority & taken care of!

Keep up the good work Mr. Gummer. You really have a winning team of professionals. We wish you and your company much growth and prosperity. Keep doing what you are doing. Your company will prosper because of it.

Many thanks again for making this a wonderful experience for our entire family.

God Bless you and your family,

On a scale of 1 to 10...

Over the years we've received a many testimonials from customers who were pleased with the work we've done. As a business owner, it is always gratifying to know when we have met or exceeded someone's expectations, and even more gratifying is the feeling of knowing that their homes are more secure.

Take a minute to read a testimonial from the Harshman family in Ocala, FL. (Click here to download a pdf of the actual letter.)

To whom it may concern:

When we found out we needed a Foundation Construction Company we were determined to pick the best company available. We were not going to settle for an "average" company. Thousands of dollars were involved and we were going to make sure it was well spent.

We set up an analysis format to review a number of companies to simply determine which one was the best. After all, this was our home. In this analysis we considered proper licensing of personnel, personnel itself, demonstration of the work to be done, equipment, means of communication, track record and other considerations.

On a scale of 1 to 10, Secure Foundations scored the highest with a 9. The nearest competitor had a 7. We also had one Company that scored a 5. With this result we chose Secure Foundations to do the job. After Secure Foundations completed the job we reflected on the wisdom of our decision.

David Toler, Senior Consultant, was the first person from Secure Foundations to greet us. He gave us a resounding welcome. David completely explained the Engineering Report on the condition of our property we received. He also explained the necessary work to be done. David was the voice of Secure Foundations. He kept us completely informed as to what was happening at all times. If we had a problem or question we called David.

Jim Alexander, Owner-State Certified General Contractor, was the most knowledgeable person we could find in this area for this construction project. We felt that his expertise was superior. He was excellent in explaining to us the work to be done.

Secure Foundation Systems are staffed throughout with very competent personnel but the two we depended the most on were David and Jim. Secure Foundations lived up to everything they promised including keeping the yard clean on a daily basis.

If you want the very best for your property you should select Secure Foundations. We did and are very proud of the results we received.

SFSI Driveway Extraction Video

Thursday, 6 May 2010 17:11 by SFSI

Secure Foundation Systems extracted a section of driveway apron that had fallen in a cover collapse sinkhole at a residence in Altamonte Springs, FL.  In a coordinated effort between Secure Foundation Systems, Progress Energy, SDII Global Corporation and Crane Rental Corporation a 9' x 10' piece of reinforced concrete 6" thick at an estimated 7,000 lbs was extracted from the hole to allow for additional observation of the conditions beneath.

The video depicts coring of the slab using a 6" core saw operated by a securely harnessed Secure Foundation Systems employee.  Once the core was created the crane boom was lowered and attached to the slab.  The slab was then extracted to allow access to properly remediate the sinkhole conditions below.

Jim Alexander, SFSI Vice President and General Contractor, (seen in the video) closely supervised the execution of this project.
