I recently had foundation reparging done, as well as some other 
structural work, and was very satisfied with the contractor I used:
Three Rivers Interiors.  Paul Runich (spelling?) is the main guy and
he is very nice and informative, priced about the same as other
estimates I got. His workers are friendly, as unobtrusive as workers
can be, and consciencious about cleaning up after themselves. They
did some things that might seem superficial and silly, like leaving
the extra cookies they had at lunch for my kids and bringing my dogs
treats, but I really felt that they were just being human ratherr than
trying to butter me up. They suggested some cheaper ways to fix a window,
and when it broke a couple of months later, they came right back and
fixed it again (but they are realistic about it - they say if this second
fix doesn'tt work, the window just isn't salvageable and will have to
be replaced - sometimes cheap fixes just aren't enough). I will certainly
use them again and you can mention my name if you decide to call them.
