Welcome to FoundationScan®!
The FoundationScan® App and Reports were developed by Point Data, Inc. to provide the foundation repair industry with better analytic tools to record and track the status of buildings and their foundations.
The website is designed to help homeowner’s understand how the reports are generated and how the reports can aid in determining if a repair is needed and if so the most appropriate repair.
The Vertical measures changes in elevation along a construction line around the exterior of the building. The Topo shows deviations from flat and the tilt of a floor or slab. The Wall Profile does the same for walls, usually basement walls. The Crack Monitor records changes in cracks, usually in walls.
Each of the reports is described in more detail on the pages for that report.
We enjoy explaining how the system works; please send any questions you may have, and we will try to answer them.
What is FoundationScan® ?
It’s like an X-ray for your home.
Our technology is built on the proprietary Benchmark®
system. This process imports data from precise laser measurements, which are then used to create visual representations of your structure’s health each time it’s
scanned. A single scan will accurately display deviations
of floors and walls from their original level (Construction Levels) and flat condition. Repeat scans will display any movement that is actively occurring.
How it works.
Sign up to have your home scanned.
We will assign your home to a certified FoundationScan® Professional in your area who will contact you within 24 hours to schedule the scan.
It will take approximately one hour to complete the scan, after which the FoundationScan® Professional will provide you with your report and walk you through the data.
From there you can use that data to get quotes for repairs, submit for an engineering report, or schedule future scans to track ongoing movement.
Investment Protection
Accurate data allows for quoting of proper repair services instead of potentially mis-diagnosed issues and unnecessary expenses. It pays for itself by protecting you from overspending.
Unbiased
FoundationScan® provides Benchmark® reports that are based on detailed measurements. The measurements cannot be skewed by anyone; giving you peace of mind.
Accountability
Repeat measurements show ongoing movement and can display repair effectiveness or shortcomings.
Accurate Answers
Precision analysis shows exact movement of your home which can ease fears or help guide you in the proper steps for repair.

CUSTOMER REVIEWS
Six years ago, I was walking around my garden and noticed some stair-step cracks in my brick. I contacted a Benchmark® contractor for a follow up and was elated to learn that the structure had no significant movement since the initial Benchmark® report. The engineer came back and was able to identify a minor easily correctable problem. I had several contractors suggesting to me that necessary repairs could run into the thousands. Knowledge is power and I am grateful I invested in the Benchmark® reports used by FoundationScan®.
Jan / Homeowner
I use Foundation Scan to help my team identify areas that might have been overlooked during diagnosis. With its data-driven insights, we can base our repairs on facts, giving us a powerful tool to present options to customers. For areas that don’t need immediate repair but should be monitored, FoundationScan® builds trust by providing clarity and transparency. It has truly changed our business for the better.
