I highly recommend Atlas Foundation Co, they did an awesome job fixing my house.
1- I got estimates from few foundation companies, the prices were almost the same, but Atlas Foundation’s scope of work made the most sense to me (I have a engineering background).
2- Lonnie who is one of the owners came to the house and took measurements, he informed me his father established this company.
3- I posted on social media asking for other people’s opinions on Atlas and everyone spoke highly of them.
4- Their office staff were very professional and worked with me, even held my check for few days

Owner Darrell Ford came out for an inspection. I chose his company because they advertised experience in foundations and drainage.
One year prior I had gutters installed on one side of my home and created drainage areas for rain water run off around the rest of my home (as recommended by another foundation company.)
Darrell checked all my doors and looked for cracks in the sheet rock. He said my home looked good, gave me a couple of recommendation and did not charge me anything for the inspection.
I am so grateful he was honest and did not try to sell me something did not need.
I will definitely

We contacted a number of vendors across the metroplex to have repair work completed on our driveway(beginning week of 9/9/19). Approximately, 1/3 of our driveway started to settle unevenly and has caused a few cracks. Before it progressed/worsened we wanted to have that portion raised back up either by foam or concrete mix. One of the companies we contacted was Atlas Foundation in Burleson. The reviews were great, family business with what seemed like a great price.
It took them nearly 2 weeks from the time I contacted them to come out and provide a quote (long wait however they weren’t the

Atlas Foundation completed pier work at our home in Mansfield, TX and both my wife and I were so pleasantly surprised by the kindness and consideration of all of the workers at our home, the quality of the work by caulking and put all back into place, and the clean up as if no one had been there. Exceptional work and workers. So highly recommended!

Our experience with Atlas was very good! I was pleasantly that Lonnie Ford, one of the owners, was the one who came out initially to meet with me. I felt he was very thorough in his assessment and explanation of our choices. With the exception of the need to go deeper than planned, the job went very well. All open holes were covered over night so my older dog wouldn’t fall in accidentally. Kyler Ford did an excellent job as the job foreman and kept me informed during the whole process. At completion my yard and flower beds were restored to pre-job appearance and every bit of trash and excess
