About Electric City Foundation Repair

Electric City Foundation Repair is a free referral service for homeowners in Scranton and across Lackawanna County, PA who need a foundation, basement or crawl space looked at. We don’t do the work ourselves. When you call or send a request, we connect you with an independent local foundation contractor who serves your area, and that pro gives you a price and does the job.

Who writes this site

The guides on this site are written and kept up to date by Joe Ruddy, our editor. Joe covers foundation cracks, bowing walls, wet basements and mine subsidence in northeastern Pennsylvania, and checks them against public sources such as Pennsylvania mine subsidence program information, building science references and manufacturer specs.

Joe Ruddy is a pen name. The guides are general information, not a professional inspection or advice for your specific home. For anything structural, electrical, gas or safety-related, have a licensed pro look at it in person.

How a request works

1. You call (570) 576-8464 or send the form on any page.
2. We pass your details only to a local foundation contractor who covers your area.
3. The pro contacts you, looks at the problem and gives you a price before any work starts.
4. You decide. Using the service costs you nothing.

What to ask any pro

Whoever you hire, ask for proof of license and insurance where your state requires them, and get the scope and price in writing before work begins. A good pro will be glad to show both.
