Quality Foundation Repair

What Quality Foundation Repair does

Quality Foundation Repair (QFR) is a privately held, family-owned foundation repair and basement waterproofing contractor headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska. Founded in 2011 by Steve Gnader—who entered the foundation repair trade in 1989—the company delivers project-based structural and moisture-management services to residential homeowners across eastern Nebraska and western Iowa, within an approximately 200-mile service radius that includes Lincoln, Council Bluffs, Bellevue, Papillion, Des Moines, and Sioux City.

The service portfolio covers the full residential foundation lifecycle: diagnosis and inspection, pier and underpinning stabilization using steel and helical piers, cracked and bowed wall reinforcement, foundation repointing and masonry repair, interior basement waterproofing with drain and sump systems, crawl space encapsulation with vapor barriers and wall insulation, dehumidification (including Santa Fe Compact units), drainage and water management, and code-compliant egress window installation. QFR is a preferred partner of Earth Contact Products, giving it access to engineered foundation systems typically used by larger specialty contractors.

Commercially, QFR operates a no-pressure, sales-led model in which customers initiate contact via phone, website form, or walk-in and receive a free on-site estimate; pricing is quote-based with a published Price Match Guarantee against comparable licensed and insured competitors in Iowa and Nebraska. Consumer financing is offered through a partnership with Momnt (loans originated by participating banks), enabling monthly installment billing without QFR taking credit risk. The company is A+ accredited by the BBB, certified by the International Code Council, and a multiple-time recipient of Best of Omaha and Sarpy County People's Choice awards. With 1-10 employees, QFR functions as a small, owner-operated regional specialist rather than a scaled platform.
