Client Testimonials
We were getting water in our crawl space after heavy rains, and it was starting to affect our floors. This team installed a drainage system and repaired the damage fast. It’s been dry ever since and the musty smell is gone.
I appreciated how honest they were during the inspection no scare tactics, just facts and solutions. They gave us multiple repair options and didn’t pressure us into anything. You can tell they care more about long term results than quick profits.
Nisan has high standards and expects the same from his crew.
They installed a French drain system for us and everything was done exactly as planned. No mistakes, no excuses- just great work and 100% satisfaction
Thanks Nisan !!

A contractor recommended a foundation inspection before we started renovating, and I’m glad we listened. They found early signs of settlement and handled the repair before it became a bigger issue. Very knowledgeable crew and the work was done right.
The crawl space under our home was a mess sagging insulation, signs of rodents, and standing water. Bedrock Foundation crew cleaned it up, repaired the damage, and sealed it tight. It’s been six months and it’s still bone dry, best in Lakewood.

Stem wall foundations, while common, have several disadvantages. They are generally more labor-intensive and costly to construct than a monolithic slab, requiring more materials like concrete and rebar for both the footing and the wall. The presence of a crawl space can create a cool, damp environment, making it prone to moisture issues, mold, and pest infestations if not properly sealed and ventilated. This space also adds to long-term maintenance. For comprehensive details on these drawbacks and best practices, please refer to our internal article Stem Walls. Bedrock Foundation Builders recommends evaluating your specific soil conditions and budget before choosing this foundation type.
The cost of a stem wall footing varies significantly based on soil conditions, linear footage, and reinforcement requirements. For a standard residential project in the Denver–Aurora–Centennial area, homeowners typically budget between $12 and $25 per linear foot. This estimate includes excavation, concrete, and steel rebar. Deeper frost lines or poor soil stability can increase costs due to additional excavation and thicker concrete. To ensure a durable foundation, proper drainage around the footing is critical. For more details on this, we recommend reading our internal article titled How Proper Drainage Prevents Foundation Problems. At Bedrock Foundation Builders, we always emphasize that investing in quality drainage and correct footing depth prevents costly structural issues later.
For a stem wall footing, the required depth is primarily determined by the local frost line, which in the Denver–Aurora–Centennial, CO Metropolitan area is typically 36 inches. This depth ensures the footing is placed below the frost line to prevent heaving from freeze-thaw cycles. The footing itself must also be poured on undisturbed, compacted soil or engineered fill to provide stable support. The width of the footing should be at least twice the width of the stem wall, with a minimum of 12 inches for most residential structures. For comprehensive guidance on proper construction techniques, we recommend reviewing our internal article titled Stem Walls, which covers all critical dimensions and reinforcement requirements. Always consult local building codes, as specific soil conditions may necessitate deeper footings.
Common stem wall problems often stem from soil movement and poor drainage. You may see horizontal or vertical cracking, which indicates pressure from expansive soils or frost heave. Another frequent issue is spalling, where the concrete surface flakes or chips away due to moisture infiltration and freeze-thaw cycles. Efflorescence, a white powdery residue, signals water seeping through the wall. Settlement or bowing of the stem wall can occur if the footing was improperly compacted or if the soil beneath it shifts. For a deeper understanding of how local ground conditions contribute to these issues, we recommend reading Does Colorado’s Soil Cause Foundation Problems?.
