Avalon Structural Inc at 181 Ridge View Road, Aptos, California.

We had a few issues with our foundation. We had two horizontal cracks and one part where the folks that did an extension to add a room and upper floor did not add a curb correctly. We had a few different companies give us bids. Price aside, the Avalon guys came through as the most thorough in their analysis and explanation. Richard spent a good couple of hours crawling with me and showing me the places needing repair. He was the only one who found the root cause for the problem - an incorrectly done deck installation on the outside that was hiding exposed rebar, which in turn was soaking up sprinkler water.

After I signed the contract, the Avalon team started and ended the work promptly and as promised and within budget. They even did a couple of things for free, when they discovered those during their work. The work site was clean at the end of the project.

The owner - Roger - did a great job communicating back to me. They kep photos of different stages of the job, and sent me a CD at the end.

To top it all, they came in at the low end of the price quotes others gave - not the lowest, but pretty close.
