I met with several different companies, but was especially impressed with Troy's knowledge and thoroughness. Pricing was very reasonable, the work was completed exactly how and when they planned, and I was updated on the process throughout. Highly recommend!!

From the very beginning I had an amazing experience. Shelbi was wonderful & so very helpful. Troy & his crew did an amazing job on our basement wall, from their knowledge on the subject to their general friendliness. The whole team really helped us out when we really needed it & not to mention how quick everything happened. Excellent company to do business with. 10/10 I can't say enough good things. You guys saved the day!

Bluebird CFW is reputable, experienced, and stands behind their process/product. From the first point of contact, they scheduled me, Corey provided a detailed consultation, and worked with me to schedule the work around planned landscaping. Jake worked with my landscaper before, during, and after and was excellent in performing the work itself (exterior foundation crack repair).Can’t recommend highly enough, true professionals!

Bluebird installed Helical Piers for our house foundation, we have received really good service, reasonably priced, Cutting and bolting their piers makes them standout from their competition.Troy was amazing to work with very clear and detailed would highly recommend them.

Troy does great work at below-industry rates. What is not to love?!? Three years ago I was referred to Troy and Bluebird for waterproofing and foundation repair for my real estate clients. He is the go-to expert of many friends of mine in the real estate world and I've found Troy to be reliable, exceedingly professional, honest, hard-working, dependable and fair.When buyers of mine were under contract for a home with leaning walls and water in the basement, Troy provided easy solutions with lifetime guarantees at rates that none of his competitors could touch.When my own home had water intrusion he came over on a holiday (a holiday!!), looked behind a wall, traced the water's path and told me to invest in smooth down spouts at one gutter and extend it to 6 feet past my home. He said he would be shocked if I ever called him again for that issue. And I haven't had an issue since! When I asked him that day what I owed him he said noting-- that he provides free estimates and that was his estimate. 45 minutes of his time to save me a LOT of money and headache with a home built in 1890. CALL TROY and BLUEBIRD.Thanks, Troy!!

Had to get a handful of helical piers installed for my garage foundation since it was sinking slowly due to soil conditions. Troy came out last year and was extremely knowledgeable and helpful, definitely no salesman vibe like the bigger companies I talked to. I decided to hold off on the project last year and fix other issues to help the situation, but eventually decided to move forward this year, and Troy even honored last year's quote. His crew, led by Tyler, finished the project this week. They were all knowledgeable, kept me informed throughout the week, answered all my questions, and provided depth logs and warranty documentation at the end. They also re-graded the lawn and put down grass seed after they backfilled the trenches they dug, thoroughly cleaned the work site, and helped relocate a swing set structure after they were all finished. Would highly recommend Bluebird to anyone dealing with foundation issues!

Alex C.

The company came right out and assessed the site. They had a proposal right away and were able to schedule the service within a week of seeing the job. Would highly recommend.

Had an Overwhelming water problem in my crawlspace. Troy came over and evaluated my situation and gave me recommendations that were fair and affordable. I had gotten two other estimates that were completely out of reach for what I needed to have done. Bluebird was able to address my problem weeks before my initial date. The guys that came in and waterproofed my crawlspace were top-notch. I highly recommend Bluebird. I wouldn’t trust anyone else.

I am a real estate broker in metro Detroit and I recommend Troy and the people at Bluebird CFW to all my clients. I receive feedback from my clients every time on how professional and hardworking they are, as well as the quality of the work performed.

The owner of Bluebird CFW evaluated my peculiar water problem of high flow and sand in my B-Dry system. He was extremely concerned by the unusual condition and studied the sand, the indications of water seepage in the block wall, studied the B-Dry installation and the foundation cracks. I'm a retired engineer and he approached this like an engineer would, not like a salesman. He is proposing a plan to investigate the source of the high water flow by excavating part of the B-Dry piping looking for the root cause of the problem. I'm in agreement. He wants to solve the problem, not band-aid it.

Had them out a few years back to encapsulate a crawl space. It was a real bad situation. They had a much better price than the other guys and did top tier work. They have been back a couple other times to help with stuff unrelated to their work and I could not be happier. I recommend them to anyone. Truly great work and better people.

Troy and crew conducted extensive foundation repair at our home spring 2023. Working through multiple complications with creativity, professionalism and competence. Great communication, excellent outcome on repair.

Bluebird CFW just encapsulated my crawl space. I received 3 bids based on identical specifications and they were easily the most competitive, by a surprising amount. Jake and his crew were a pleasure to work with from start to finish and I am very happy with the end result. It sure is nice to deal with professional vendors like this.

Very satisfied and happy with our new waterproofed basement! Everyone is very professional and did a beautiful job! Troy the owner is a very wonderful person i couldn't be happier. Iwill recommend to everyone I know who needs their services.

Terri L.

These guys are wonderful! The price is better for the same work then the other places I checked. I feel they are honest, forthright and we’re very nice. They also didn’t stay 3 hours like the other companies did. They had respect for my time!

I called and Troy came out and inspected our basement that was getting efflorescence (salt residue) in a particular corner. He found the issue and was honest with a simple fix. Great guy and admirable business owner. Definitely recommend Bluebird CFW.

Bottom line this company is made up of stand up people. If you’re looking for waterproofing don’t waste your time sifting through contractors or getting multiple bids, trust me. They sealed up a nasty crawl space, gave great customer service, and made sure my satisfaction was top priority. Their number one service is integrity therefore you can’t go wrong.

Bluebird worked at my home in October of this year to replace my central support beam and multiple support posts. I recently purchased my home in May of 2022 and it was built by my grandfather, so it was extremely important to me that this work be done at a high level of quality. Troy and his team were exceptionally professional, completed the work very quickly and educated me on the process as they worked. The work was completed, in my opinion, at a very high level of quality and the price that I was quoted and ultimately paid was significantly lower than other foundation companies that I called before reaching out to Bluebird. The team also cleaned every time they left my house. My house was literally cleaner on the days that they came to work than it is at any other time. Every individual that I spoke to in the office when I called was also incredibly professional and kind. I cannot recommend Troy and his team enough- if you are looking for foundation repair work, don't even bother calling anyone else. Save yourself the time and just call Bluebird.

Troy came out to give me estimates for several things we needed done at our lake house. While he was there, we went into the crawl space, he took over an hour on a weekend and fixed our sump pump issue while educating me at the same time. Just meeting me that day and not knowing if we were using his services, he wouldn't bill us for that time. With settling issues in the past, we needed 8 Helical Peers around the house and under a future deck, so we called Troy. His price was 2/3's of his competitor and he knew what he was doing, so we booked the installation dates. His team called to let me know their arrival time, prior to showing up on their scheduled day. I talked to his entire crew and all of them were very polite, professional and focused. They worked together as a team, I know, I was on the job site with them the first day. I don't trust many contractors, so I rarely leave them alone. Troy and his crew, different story. I left before they did on the first day, with confidence the job would meet my expectations. When the job was done 2 days later, his team called me. They let me know they cleaned up as much as they could, told me the details of each helical peer and how the entire project went. If you have a need for anything they do, definitely reach out, you won't be disappointed.

I called Bluebird and they came out the next day as scheduled. They inspected my basement, explained everything. This is definitely the Company you want to hire.

I have had issues with my basement flooding since I bought the house in 2015. There was no drainage system installed at this home. I was so distraught and very scared to invest in this basement.I just had this done in June and I regret not doing it sooner! This company is so kind and respectful. I’m kind of a pain with asking lots of questions. Every person I spoke to explained things I didn’t understand and were patient with me every step of the way.After they were done with the job they cleaned up after themselves. I didn’t have to cleanup anything. The work they did was just absolutely amazing.If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I have been able to enjoy these storms without the worry of my basement flooding again.

We recently had Troy come out to give us an estimate on our water damaged crawl space. We were very pleased with his honesty and professionalism. He didn't try to sell us something we didn't need like the other companies we received estimates from. We would highly recommend Bluebird Foundation Repair and Waterproofing.

Bluebird has been the absolute best company I've ever worked with. Not only was their price excellent, their work and professionalism has been outstanding. They keep you informed at every step of the process and make sure that you understand how everything works. I can't say enough good things about Bluebird and all of their employees. If you're wondering who to hire for your job, Bluebird is the right one!

Excellent business! Corey came out to look at a leak in our basement. After doing some examination he determined it was an easy fix. He explained I could do it on my own for much cheaper. I appreciated his honesty and he did not even charge for coming out to look at it. I would highly recommend this business if your looking for an honest and fair company to work on your home!

Corey came out for the free estimate and ended up fixing the problem. I offered him some money since he fixed it but he wouldn't take it since it was a simple fix. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
