How we use them

• Where Kansas City contractors publish their own rates (Olson Foundation Repair, Foundation 1, Foundation Integrity Authority, Heartland Foundation Repair), the estimator uses them directly. National guides fill the gaps.
• We don't apply a regional adjustment to national figures.
• Ranges are installed prices, low to high, per unit (pier, strap, crack, square foot and so on). Totals are rounded to the nearest $100 and always shown as a range.
