Foundation repair
Foundation repair software built around how you already work.
Inspections with elevation readings and crack measurements, engineer review, estimates, permits, pier installs with depth and pressure logs, post-repair surveys and transferable warranties, all on one job. Your crews log it on the phone, and AI does the admin.
The short answer
What software does a foundation repair business need?
A foundation repair business needs software that records an inspection precisely (elevation readings, crack widths, photos), routes it through engineer review, turns it into a scope and estimate, and logs every pier's depth and pressure at install. It should also keep the post-repair survey and a transferable warranty that a future buyer can rely on. Fieldproxy is set up around that process, from $649/month with unlimited users.
How the job runs
A foundation repair job, start to finish.
The stages your software has to follow, in the order the work actually happens.
- 1
Inspection
The inspector walks the property, takes elevation readings across the slab or floor, measures cracks, checks doors and windows, notes drainage and soil conditions, and photographs everything against a sketch of the house. - 2
Engineer review and scope
Where the job or the permit needs it, a structural engineer reviews the readings and photos and signs off a repair plan. The scope sets pier type, count and placement, and becomes the estimate. - 3
Contract and permit
The homeowner signs and pays the deposit, the permit is pulled with the engineer's plan, utilities are marked, and the crew, materials and any inspection are scheduled. - 4
Pier install
The crew excavates, drives each pier, and logs its depth and installation pressure, then lifts and stabilizes. Every pier is numbered on the site plan and photographed before backfill. - 5
Post-repair survey and warranty
A second elevation survey shows the result against the first. The final inspection is passed, the warranty certificate is issued against the property, and it transfers to the next owner if the house is sold.
What to record
The checklist for every job.
Whatever system you run on, these are the fields, readings and photos worth capturing every time. Use it as your checklist.
Inspection
- Elevation readings at each grid point, with the reference point and instrument used
- Each crack: location, length, width (measured), and pattern (stair-step, horizontal, vertical), with a photo and ruler
- Doors and windows sticking or out of square, and floor slope notes
- Drainage, gutters, grading and visible soil or moisture conditions
- Foundation type (slab, pier and beam, basement) and a sketch with numbered points
Scope, engineer and permit
- Engineer name, license number, review date and signed plan
- Pier type, count and placement on the site plan
- Permit number, utility locate ticket number and inspection dates
- Signed contract, deposit received and agreed start date
Install and close-out
- Per pier: number, location, depth reached, installation pressure, lift achieved, photo before backfill
- Daily crew log: who was on site, hours and weather
- Post-repair elevation readings at the same grid points as the inspection
- Final inspection result, homeowner signature and walkthrough photos
- Warranty certificate number, start date, term and transfer conditions
Where generic software breaks
Why template tools don't fit.
Most field service software is built for a generic service call. Foundation repair companies run a different job.
- Elevation readings and crack measurements end up on a paper sketch, so the post-repair survey cannot be compared point by point and the engineer works from photos of a clipboard.
- Engineer review is a step generic software does not have, so jobs sit waiting for a signature with nobody tracking which plans are out for review.
- Pier depth and pressure logs are the proof the repair was done right, and a notes box or a crew's text messages are not a record anyone can defend years later.
- Transferable warranties are tracked in a filing cabinet, so when a buyer's inspector calls, the office cannot pull up the piers, readings and certificate for that address.

Questions
Foundation repair software, answered.
What software do foundation repair companies use?
Foundation repair companies need software that records inspections precisely, tracks engineer review and permits, logs every pier's depth and pressure at install, and keeps a transferable warranty per property. Many use a general CRM plus paper inspection sheets. Fieldproxy is set up around your own stages and forms, with elevation readings, crack measurements and pier logs captured on the technician app.
Can Fieldproxy record elevation readings and compare them after the repair?
Yes. The inspection form records readings at numbered points, and the post-repair survey uses the same points, so the report shows before and after side by side. Crack measurements and photos are recorded the same way.
Does it handle transferable warranties?
Yes. Each completed job creates a warranty record tied to the property address, with the certificate number, term, pier log and post-repair readings attached. When the house is sold, the office can find everything for that address in one place.
How much does foundation repair software cost?
Fieldproxy is $649/month per company with unlimited users, so inspectors, crews and the office are all included. AI credits are charged separately and every AI agent is included. Per-user tools cost more with each hire.
How long does it take to switch to Fieldproxy?
It starts with a 30-minute call about how your inspections and installs run. Fieldproxy is configured to your stages and forms within 48 hours, then your customers, properties, open jobs and warranties are migrated. The average migration takes about 10 days, and you switch when the team is ready.
