Protect Your Investment!

Published by on September 28, 2015

Did you know a home’s foundation directly affects its property value? The moment a potential buyer see’s a crack or finds out that there may be a problem with the structure, their dream of making this their future home could be shattered.

Foundation problems are often caused by a variety of changes that can occur in the soils surrounding your home. Unfortunately, these problems don’t get better with time – they only get worse.

In fact many people associate foundation problems with older homes, however Consumer Reports found that an alarming 15% of new homes have serious foundation problems. These problems were found to have two causes: 1) Poor construction, and 2) Homes built on poorly compacted fill soils.
Therefore it’s safe to say that foundation problems affect new and old homes alike. The decision to fix these problems – permanently – is an investment in your home that makes sense.
If you have a house that’s on the market that needs foundation repairs, MBR is here to help. With our Funding at Closing program, we will accept funds straight from the closing table to help alleviate some of the stress of last minute home repairs! And you can feel safe with MBR’s Genuine Lifetime Transferable Warranty on all our piers. Call us today to get your foundation squared away right away! 817-469-1090

Summer Quick Tip!

Published by on June 20, 2015

We are excited to introduce our new website this Summer! We have added more information and media materials for our customers and partners.

Here’s a quick tip: During Summer, because of the high temperatures, your foundation requires an increase in the amount of water needed to maintain ample moisture levels.

Place soaker hoses approx. a foot from the edge (ideally buried about a foot down) and run for about an hour every other day. If the soil begins to recede from the slab, increase watering until you close the gap.

For more tips see our maintenance page, or give us a call at 817-469-1090
