Fast and efficient. They put in five piers at my house, and finally my front door can open and close without a jiggle jiggle. Jim was very upfront and always would reply if I had any questions. Thank you!

Wow, we have our house back! Dry conditions made the foundation sink, and the house was literally falling apart. King Piers to the rescue. The crew dug neat and impressive holes around the inside of our basement, jacked the foundation back into place, and poured concrete piers that aren’t going anywhere. They tuck pointed our broken bricks neatly once the walls were back where they belong. I never knew you could do so much dirty work yet keep a worksite so clean. The owner Jim King was very clear on how the process works, then it went just like he said. He was always responsive with any questions we had along the way. Now the rest is up to us – patching and painting our plaster walls. At least we know they won’t go anywhere this time!

Jim and his crew did a great job on our 120year old farmhouse. They did a complete stone renovation, added support and repaired cracks on our disaster of a project. We didn't want to ever go in our basement. Now we have a great area for storage and safety from storms. Jim is a great guy and we highly recommend you give him a call for any project needed for your foundation. He has become a friend and will always be who we recommend if someone mentions their home foundation. Thanks Jim.

Having stone foundation settling is a pretty daunting problem. Jim at King Piers made the experience incredibly manageable and left me with great results. I honestly don’t believe I could have possibly gotten the results I did without Jim’s expertise and his King Pier system. Walls are now level, cracks were sealed up and the brick facade now sits back flush with the house. On top of that, they were able to do a porch extension that I’m already getting to enjoy. The crew is hard working, experienced and polite and it shows in their work. Very happy customer here! Thanks Jim and crew.

If I could give King Piers LLC a hundred stars I would. I made the unfortunate mistake of hiring a different company due to not knowing about King Piers. The other company came and did work and made my situation 100X worse. I found out about King Piers and Jim came out very quickly and got the job done. The other company was just trying to mask the problem. King Piers attacked the problem and actually FIXED the issue. I am 100% satisfied and I will be telling all I know if they have a problem to call Jim with King Piers LLC. Thank you very much Jim and your team. You made a VERY stressful and miserable experience for us totally go away and we are confident in the work you and your crew completed. Thank you again!

I have heard great things about King Piers. Jim is super friendly and kind, but the scheduling system is not good & has ruined any future business we would be doing with them.
My husband and I have scheduled 3 appointments to have cracks filled in our basement, every time no one showed up. It’s inconsiderate of others schedules & time. If you are too busy & can’t work a job in, please don’t schedule the repair & then not show up.
We hope others have a better experience! -
Jim was great to work with from start to finish. He constantly communicated with us to let us know when they planned on starting the job. Jaimie and his team worked relentlessly to give us a beautiful final result. Highly recommend!

I had a project that needs be done ASAP so I called King Piers of which Jim is the owner. He answered my phone and came out the same day to give me the quote and then scheduled the time to complete the project. The crew did a great job. Surprisingly they came to work on the project very early-7AM in the morning. Overall I am very happy with the project!!! Thank you!!!

Had a pillar that was sinking. They gave me a good quote and were able to start 2 days later. They did a great job! Highly recommend.

King Piers did an outstanding job on my 100+ year old home. They not only lifted and leveled the house, but also repaired the foundation with incredible attention to detail. The owner, Jim King, was always reachable by phone and showed up for every scheduled meeting—something that’s rare to find these days. The entire team went above and beyond my expectations. If you're looking for a company that does the job right the first time, I would 110% recommend King Piers!

Always answer all your questions and makes sure you understand what has to be done and why You don’t get to many companies that cares about the homeowners Jim Does !! Jim and his team went above and beyond to make me happy with the extra dirt I had. I was very very pleased with King Piers services I would use them again !! Thanks Jim !!

Owner drove an hour Christmas eve morning to look at my house. Said I had already fixed the problem and no piers or work was needed. Gave me some pointers on how to make it look better and was gone before I could even grab my wallet for a tip. Very honest company! Thank you.

When I set out to buy my home, I was hit with news that nearly stopped the purchase in its tracks. The foundation was sinking, and one wall was rotating outward. I loved the house and wanted to move forward, but with so much money on the line, the thought of buying into a major structural problem was overwhelming. Foundation repair is one of the most stressful things a homeowner can face, and I needed certainty that the solution I chose would truly last.
By profession, I work in research. It’s in my nature to investigate thoroughly before committing to any major decision. I spent close to twenty hours researching foundation repair systems, reading everything I could find, and studying every company I could identify. I don’t make choices on gut feeling—I move forward only when I have confidence in the facts. The details in this account reflect that effort, and the decision I ultimately made came from careful study.
That’s when I found King Piers. From the very beginning, Jim spoke to me with clarity and transparency. He gave me honest, accurate assessments and never pressured me into a decision. Every promise he made about the quality of the work and the professionalism of his crews proved true. In an industry where sales tactics and vague warranties are common, this level of straightforward honesty immediately set King Piers apart.
It helped that I had perspective: the home had been put on piers decades ago by another construction company. Those piers had failed over time, leaving me to face the consequences. Many companies rely on conventional helical piers, but these systems are vulnerable. Buried steel can corrode in soil until it weakens to the point of collapse, and warranties that sound impressive in theory often prove worthless when failure occurs. Too many homeowners discover, after the fact, that their “lifetime” coverage comes with fine print and denial.
King Piers works differently. Their system doesn’t rely on narrow steel shafts and torque guesses. Instead, they dig each pier hole by hand—no machines that risk damaging the foundation. They go fully beneath the footing, place heavy steel plates under it, and then encase everything in a proprietary high-strength concrete mix that contains no fly ash. The steel is locked in and protected, the footing is lifted back to its original elevation, and the mass of concrete distributes the load for long-term stability. King Piers is so confident in the integrity of their method that they guarantee it, and they make the entire process transparent by videotaping jobs and posting them online for anyone to see.
Watching the crews work confirmed everything Jim had promised. They were courteous and respectful of my home, even taking off their shoes before walking inside to check the results after the lift. They took careful measurements, explained each step, and left no mess behind. What could have been a nightmare was turned into relief, because I could see with my own eyes that the work was quality from start to finish.
For me, the difference was clear: King Piers delivered not just a foundation repair, but peace of mind. Having been through this ordeal, I would choose King Piers every time. This write-up was not requested, sponsored, or compensated in any way—it is offered freely and with gratitude from my heart for a job exceptionally well done. -
They are nice

“They followed the engineer’s plans” is what they said. No engineer would route any sidewalk the way it is in front of my house. Their foreman said “ no , I would not want this in front of my house”. Yet it is here. Drive down Bynum road in Lone Jack, Mo. I challenge you. Look at the sidewalk. Not the uneven storm drains, not the storm drains being higher than the road. Just look at the sidewalk. You will find my house. It may take 3 tries. You will find it and then question WHY? I was raised if you can not be proud of the work you did, don’t do it.
