Foundation Installation & Repair in Asheville, NC | Appalachian Excavation & Concrete

Everything above the foundation depends on the foundation. Appalachian Excavation & Concrete installs and repairs foundations throughout Asheville and Western North Carolina, where slope, clay soils and heavy seasonal rain put constant pressure on footings and walls.

For new construction, we handle the full sequence — excavation, footing layout, reinforcement, forming, pouring and backfill — so the structure starts plumb, level and properly drained. Builders work with us because our digs are accurate and our schedule holds, which keeps framing crews from sitting idle.

For existing homes, we start with diagnosis, not demolition. Cracks, sticking doors, sloped floors and damp crawl spaces all have causes, and the fix has to address the cause. We evaluate settlement, moisture load and drainage, then recommend the repair that solves the actual problem: structural stabilization, crack repair, waterproofing, drainage correction or a combination.

We also handle the water side of foundation work — interior drainage, sump support, exterior membranes and grading that moves runoff away from the building. In this climate, moisture control is not an upgrade. It is the difference between a foundation that lasts and one that keeps costing you money.
