FREE FOUNDATION INSPECTION / CENTRAL FLORIDA
Foundation drainage
Water repeatedly collects against the building or remains a problem after foundation work.
The foundation inspection appointment is free. Any specialist diagnostic work, drainage installation or repair is agreed and priced separately.
What FAS does.
Start with a free foundation inspection for your foundation concern. FAS installs drainage around foundations to address water reaching and collecting beside the building. We review roof discharge, surrounding ground levels, paved areas and any existing drains before proposing the work. Previous foundation repair records can help show what has already been addressed. Any proposed drainage installation or repair is quoted separately. The quote explains the route, outlet and installation areas, with any foundation repair identified separately.
What we check.
- Where water collects against the building and when it appears.
- Roof runoff, nearby paving and existing drainage.
- Previous foundation reports, repairs and available drain records.
What happens next.
- Show us the affected areas and any previous repair records.
- Review the proposed drainage and how it fits the building.
- Approve the site-verified work and quote.
Common questions.
Is the foundation inspection appointment free?
Yes. You can request a free foundation inspection directly. Any specialist diagnostic work, drainage installation or repair is agreed and priced separately.
Can drainage still be needed after foundation repair?
Yes. Recurring water needs its own review. Previous repair records help show what was done and what may need attention.
Does a drainage assessment confirm structural damage?
No. A separate structural assessment may be needed for that question.

Flood prevention: the first ten feet
Tilt the ground beside the house and see which way surface water travels.
- 1House and slab
- 2Ground beside the house
- 3Ten-foot example
Flat ground gives water little direction. Puddles can collect beside the wall.
What to notice.
Water follows the ground. A low area beside a wall can collect runoff; a continuous fall away provides a different path. Settling and landscaping can change that direction. A site assessment checks the actual levels, nearby surfaces and where the water can go next.
