TerraFirma Foundation Systems is an Oregon owned business providing Foundation Piering Systems and Basement Systems® products to residential and commercial customers throughout Oregon, Washington, and soon to be Idaho. The ownership and management team have an extensive background in both residential and commercial construction, having been involved in the industry for more than twenty years. The knowledge and pride we bring to every jobsite ensures that your project will be handled in a way that guarantees 100% customer satisfaction.
Over the years, our main focus has been finding a permanent solution to homes/ businesses that have experienced differential settlement. Our Piering System provides that answer. Our piers can be installed year-round, landscaping is undisturbed, limited access areas are not an issue, all installers are certified, and the cost is reasonable compared to other solutions that are not guaranteed to work.
The nuts and bolts of the Foundation Pier System can be summarized in three easy to understand steps. First, a series of Foundation Pier anchoring brackets of heavy, industrial strength steel are attached to your home’s footings. Next, rugged steel piers are hydraulically driven down to solid rock or equal load-bearing strata. This is done below ground so nothing is exposed. Finally, the weight of your home, anchored to the steel brackets, is carefully transferred from unstable soil to rock-solid piers. Your home or commercial building is now secure.
Our New Construction Piering System provides customers with the satisfaction of knowing they don’t have to worry about settlement issues after building their dream home or business. Most of the available buildable land in Oregon & Southwestern Washington is located on hillsides or constructed fill lots that require soil or rock to be brought in or cut out of the hillside to create a suitable, level pad. We can install our piers prior to pouring any foundations and transfer the load safely to load bearing strata. This will allow you to construct your home/business closer to slopes without fear of sliding off the mountain. You may be able to build a bigger home because the original plans you had wouldn’t fit on your lot. The benefits of thinking before you build will pay huge dividends in the future.
The Basement Systems® line of basement drainage/finish products provide homeowners with the security of knowing that water finding its way into basements and crawlspaces can be controlled. We carry a full line of products that can be installed inside your home/business that can handle the water coming in and discharge it safely away from the structure. With your new dry area, we offer wall and flooring systems that will turn your basement into useable living space. We also offer the Cleanspace® Crawlspace Encapsulation System that will eliminate dirt crawlspaces and the problems associated with them.

You and the problem you’re experiencing will be treated with the same sense of urgency, whether it’s a big or small job. 100% customer satisfaction, throughout the entire process, is TerraFirma Foundation Systems' main goal.
