WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
They were the only company we got a quote from that explained the engineering, not only about what was wrong with the wall but how it got to the point in the first place. Every other company we talked to basically just said “You have crack, we fix.” The fact that they took the time to have that conversation and gave us a detailed explanation showed us that they will go above and beyond for their customers.
From start to finish the work they did was great and professional, even taking the time to clean up after themselves. Before all of this I was completely unaware about the world of foundation companies. Let’s just say that it seems like most of them are just out for a quick buck and don’t care if the work they are providing actually fixes the problem. Stratum was the complete opposite of that. They were only interested in doing the job right.
No one wants to have to deal with foundation issues but having Stratum take care of ours gave us much needed peace of mind and confidence in the structural integrity of our home. There really is no other reason to use another company. I cannot recommend them enough.
Brandon came out first and did the crack repairs. A big rain came right after he finished, and what do you know, no water!
Keith and the waterproofing crew show up a few weeks later and do the waterproofing job. This was a messy job with digging out concrete, installing a sump, and putting everything back together. Everything was clean and neat after they were done.
Fast forward a week or two after the waterproofing system is installed. Sustained rain for a week with heavy rains and intermittent thunderstorms (midwest living!) and no water in my basement at all! The sump was pumping out water regularly so I know I made the right decision and Craig didn't lead me wrong. Between the crack repair and waterproofing system, I have peace of mind. Even if the sump fails (dual pump system + battery backup, so unlikely!) I know the crack repairs can hold down the fort temporarily while it gets repaired. Thanks, Stratum!
But the real star of the whole thing was their sales rep, Matthew Wittman. This guy is seriously top notch. From the moment he walked in, he had this friendly face and calm vibe that made me feel like everything was going to be ok. He explained the whole process in a way that actually made sense to me, even though I dont know anything about foundation work. His knowledge and customer service were honestly some of the best I have ever seen.
Matthew never rushed me, answered every single question I threw at him, and made sure I felt good about the plan before anything started. By the end I felt more like I was working with a trusted partner, not a sales rep, who knew what he was talking about instead of a trying to get a deal. Everything he promised actually got done how he said it would.
Stratum Structural Systems is the real deal. My basement walls look better, feel stronger, and I finally have some peace of mind. I would recommend them to anybody who needs foundation work done.
Five stars is not enough for Matt and the Stratum Team, they deserve a whole galaxy!
Thanks again to Matthew and the whole Stratum team. You guys crushed it!

Basement Waterproofing
Water in your basement or crawl space can be a stressful and destructive problem, damaging any personal items, encouraging mold growth, or even causing issues that eventually require expensive structural repair.

Foundation Repair
Stair step cracks in brick and mortar along with drywall cracking may be a result of foundation settlement. Additional damage may include gaps at windows, doors or cracks in the foundation.

Egress Windows
Stratum Structural Systems is the premier egress window specialist in St. Louis. Egress windows are designed to provide home occupants a safe place to exit during a time of emergency, and are required to be installed in all basement bedrooms.

Crack Repair
Foundation cracks can occur for many reasons. Not all cracks are structural concerns and often, simple epoxy or urethane injections can be administered to prevent water from entering the basement.

Concrete Leveling
Uneven concrete can become a dangerous tripping hazard and will only get worse with time. No need to replace broken concrete...Just Raise It!
