About the Owner

Ryan is a sixth generation Oregonian and third generation entrepreneur in the construction industry. With a family heritage in agriculture, ranching, and mineral resources, Ryan was raised on a sheep, cattle, and horse ranch just North of Roseburg, Oregon. His grandfather, Phil Beckley, was principal and partner in Beckley and Thomas Rock Productions — a firm started in Elkton, Oregon in the late 1930’s, later becoming one of the largest aggregate suppliers in Southern Oregon. After serving a tour in Vietnam, Ryan’s father, Tom Beckley started a rock crushing and road building business in Southern Oregon.

At the early age of 24, Ryan Beckley started his first company, Beckley Excavation and Utility, which quickly positioned itself as a significant player in the civic construction industry. The success of the excavation business led Ryan to diversify into rock quarry operations, real estate development, and a foundation repair company that he named TerraFirma.

The impetus for starting TerraFirma was Ryan’s very first home — a beautiful home in a great neighborhood for sale at what seemed to be well below market value. Ryan later found that this was due to a foundation settlement issue, making the home incredibly hard to sell despite its great location. True to Ryan’s tenacious nature — Ryan decided he could find a way to fix it, and purchased the home. After extensive research and education on deep foundation repairs, it became apparent to Ryan that local homeowners and business owners were in dire need of the same services and solutions he sought.

In March of 2005, TerraFirma was created and has since become the industry leader in structural stabilization, waterproofing, and humidity control. With office locations in Oregon and Washington, and by far the largest and best-trained workforce in the industry, TerraFirma’s growth has been staggering.

Today, TerraFirma is Ryan’s only professional focus. Ryan instills a culture of excellence in all parts of TerraFirma, putting great culture and an amazing customer experience at the top of the list. After being named in the Portland Business Journal’s “Fastest Growing Companies” and The Oregonian’s “Top Workplaces in Oregon,” the future for TerraFirma keeps getting brighter and brighter.

TERRAFIRMA IN THE COMMUNITY

Each year, TerraFirma locations partner with various community causes, both large and small, to give back.
While this list isn’t exhaustive, we are proud of our individual and collective efforts to make a positive impact in our communities.

thank you
Homeowners!

We love our clients – and the feeling is mutual.
From Roseburg to Eugene, Portland to Seattle, our team does their best work every day. And we love when our customers take the time to let us know.

Everyone at TerraFirma has been great. From the initial bid to finishing the job, they are a top notch company with top notch people.
Seth was amazing taking care of my family while I was away from the house. He was very kind and attentive. Although we were not in his scope of work, he was very helpful in pointing us in the right direction. Thank you so much Seth!
This was truly an awesome experience, from the time Will arrived to do the estimate, to completion of the job a little more than a week later. Will gave us great insight as to the foundation and build of our home. We were having issues with a back patio and front steps that were added to the property post build and had sunk quite a bitt.

All the folks we dealt with at TerraFirm were friendly, informative, helpful and kind. From our initial contact with Hillary to schedule appointments, to our very informative meeting with Will for the appraisal and estimate, and a very special shout-out to Schylar and Jonny, for a very cool learning experience during installation. We pestered them with questions the entire time they were here and they graciously and willingly answered them all! great crew, awesome job and a joy to spend time with.

Thank you all for a great experience!!!

Nice job and follow up! I would recommend Terrafirma for any foundation work on your home.
Jeremy did an excellent job. The Terra Firma process worked fantastic. It was well worth the money!
My experience with the TerraFirma Company and their employees was just outstanding. They were polite, timely, took time to explain to me what they were doing and why. When they were finished, they explained everything that they had done and the results. Then they cleaned up my yard and you couldn't even tell they had been there. A big Thank You to Taylor, Lewis, and Brent and the two gentlemen that I can't remember their names. Also, the support staff at the office did a very good job of keeping me informed of the process of the necessary permits. I highly recommend this company.
In short "WOW". Enough said.
Living on the coast and sand moves with the rain at times. bought 8 yrs ago garage floor was sinking to one side. Finally called TerraFirma. What they did was amazing. lifted the floor as much as 4 inches in one section. As work was going on he explained what was happening with each step as I watched curiously. The wife was very reluctant to have them come now says we should have sooner. Even the patio door at the end of the garage works correctly now too.
And something else I saw..... Customer Service is still alive and living in TerraFirma, Thank you to the TerraFirma people of Roseburg, Or. Salute to each and every one of them
With a water floored basement, we contacted Terra Firma to locate the water source which they did in no time. They explained, in detail, what would be done to fix the problem and went to work. They were respectful of our furnishings covering to protect them from limited dust. They were professional and the project was completed on time. We are very satisfied with the end result, quality of workmanship, and price. We would recommend them for foundation work of any type.
The floor in our shop is nice and level that the door closes so nicely. before the door would not close at all. This is the second time that TerraFirma has helped us out of a sunken floor!
System Design Specialist, Kristy Young, was phenomenal to work with! She was thorough and a true professional. Kristy was able to bring plans to her team which resulted in a substantial cost savings versus competitors. Other competitors wanted us to remove main sewer line and displace our new electrical panel when in fact the wall stabilizer was able to fit behind due to it's sleek, thin carbon armor material! Kristy is beyond exceptional and I can't recommend her enough!
These guys were fantastic! Luis Juarez and his team did an amazing job. We had minimal disruption, and the job site was kept clean at all times. The resulting stability of the building is great. They were responsive to our questions, courteous at all times, and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
Seth. Was great. Very. Professiinal. Thank you Terrafirma Vince
They did a very professional job.when there was a small problem a month later they returned and set it right at no additional charge. Punctual, Professional and Prompt.
Kudos to Riley, a TerraFirma System Design Specialist. Riley is a smart guy. Honest and communicative. He's focused on problem-solving instead of just selling products. You don't find that skill very often these days. I had an excellent experience getting a crawlspace encapsulation estimate from him.
This is the 3rd time I have worked with this company. Very satisfied every time.
Seth was very professional and easy to work with.
We called TerraFirma with a pretty significant problem. We had just purchased a home and were a bit misled on a couple of items. The basement and crawlspace were mold infested (which we did know). What we did not know was that at times of the year, there would be some standing water in the crawlspace. We also didn't know that the drain from the sump pump was actually underwater (adjacent lake), nor did we know the pool backflushed into that same line and actually would enter the crawlspace whenever that process occured. The crawlspace was unvented and unconditioned....the perfect storm of BAD! Our goal was to first remediate the mold and then resolve the issues that allowed the mold to grow in the first place. Enter Terra Firma. Tulane and Terra Firma stood head and shoulders above every other company I spoke with. It wasn't jus that they were going to fix it- we literally walked through every step and every product-I knew what I was buying before we started. The crew was professional, on time and did exactly what they said they would do and in the time frame promised. With Terra Firma, we waterproofed and encapsulated our crawlspace, we insulated the crawlspace, we installed new sub floor drainage with new sump pumps with battery backup to lower the water table under the house (that now drains above the high water line), we installed new structural floor posts where others had rotted, we installed a bypass for the pool overflow and we installed dehumidification and we are in the process of now conditioning the space. Terra Firma led the way and did an excellent job both on the communication and on the installation (at the price originally quoted!). I would highly recommend this firm for anyone with complex and challenging crawlspace issues. Great work and fantastic team from start to finish!

Wait was a bit long but when they finally got started (1 week early) the guys were on time, conscientious, professional, and the work was great. The weather was cold and wet but they kept at it with very little breaks.
Highly recommend.
I had Terrafirma come out to repair my broken and cracked patio. Ken Lomax and Dorian McDonald were fantastic. They were communicative, did great work and...
Had a great meeting with Derek Ryan. He is knowledgeable and very outgoing. I look forward to meeting his crew next month when they work on my project. I thought that the quote I received was quite fair.
Very professional and thorough.
Failed to clean up after the job our only concern. We had to have a cleaning service come. Terra Firma paid for it.
They provided a whole new drainage system with new vapor barrier and leveled our mobile home. I found them to be highly professional, extremely conscientious and thorough. They explained everything to me and made sure I understood and felt comfortable with whatever they were doing. I would highly recommend them if you are needing the same type of service.
Excellent team! Great attention to detail. Courteous, eager to please!
Great job!
TerraFirma, Luis and Crew were extremely hard working, professional, efficient and friendly! They got the job done! Thanks!
Travis and his crew did an excellent job. They were out here and started the day they said, and they finished the following week on the day they said. They kept me informed throughout the project as well as every morning they put down (new) protective plastic in the house where they had to go through and picked it up every night. They did one heck of a job and now I have no worries about water under my house. FYI, the electrical is completed and now all I can do is smile when I hear a Pump kick on. Thanks
Terra Firma Foundations did an excellent job encapsulating my Vancouver home’s crawl space: is now now clean, well-insulated, rodent-free and moisture-free. The crew was absolutely OUTSTANDING: Jorge Valencia plus Juan and Manuel. They worked in very cramped space with many obstacles (ductwork) to maneuver around, and they were skilled, efficient and a pleasure to work with. Five stars for the company and the crew. .
Terrific folks, personable professionals that know what they are doing.
A great company to deal with
So I had Jorge as a Forman with Juan, Manuel, Kevin, Zach, and Daniel.
First off, Jorge did an excellent job of communicating the process, explaining materials he was using, and setting up the sump online system with my wife (it was the first time he'd installed this particular sump, so the set up was new to him as well).
Secondly, When he was done, even though it was Friday night and I know he wanted to get back home, he chatted with my wife and I and was very pleasant and positive. I believe he said he's been there for four years and also said it was a great company to work for. I also work in the construction industry and was generally curious about the company. I could tell he was sincere.
Lastly, To say they worked hard was an extreme understatement; they had to haul in by hand 5 gallon buckets of concrete and haul out all the jackhammering they did to get the foundation flood protection as well as the sump set. No standing around. No cell phone use. Just solid work. Jorge's crew was friendly enough, but they were no-nonsense and left the up front communication to him.

The cost wasn't cheap, but we went with Terra Firma strictly on reputation. We live about 75 miles out of PDX, and to get the job done, they sent out an additional crew for a crucial piece of the work. I would say, despite the cost (and it's not like they were ripping me off, it was just a costly project), I got my money's worth based on what I saw from the labor intensity. I really can't believe how much they did in such little time. They said "one day", and by God they made it happen. They had to hammer out approximately a 75' long, 8" wide by 10" deep trench along the inner concrete foundation of my house, hammer out and install a sump, then core out, install and set a discharge conduit about 12 feet outside of my house. Not a small task for a day's work.

My only nitpick would be there was a small amount of dust left over from the work, despite the very elaborate taping and containment plastic they used (which was a LOT). They did great of taping everything and covering floors, etc. I was concerned about silica, and Jorge told me they would use a vacuum shroud for the hammering process, which I assume was done, but was not at home for that phase of the process. My wife has asthma, so dust is our nemesis!

This is one of those projects that you hope you don't have to use (flood prevention), but a small part of me wants to have water trickle in to see the efficacy of the work. Time will tell!
Until then, thank you Jorge and crew for kicking some ass, and getting a good tackle on our flood prevention!
The crew at the Vancouver, TerraFirma did a great job!! Jacob Iltis did a great job presenting several options to resolve the crawl space issues, the main focus was on a bouncy floor and we opted to install a new beam with screw jacks. Jorge Valencia and his crew, Juan and Manuel did a great job installing the beam and screw jacks. They communicated exactly what was going to happen and when. They put flooring protection down and did a nice job at cleaning up at the end. I highly recommend TerraFirma and the crew of Jorge, Juan and Manuel to get the job done. TerraFirma will be my first call if I have anymore issues.
Jorge Juan and Manuel We’re amazing to work with. They were out here when they said they would and worked hard each day and did impeccable work. They are very polite, courteous, professional and knowledgeable. They walked me through each step of the way as I had a sump pump installed in my crawl space. I was extremely happy with the results. They were very meticulous, and cleaned up as they went.
Installers were very professional. I asked for a few areas to be filled farther They made adjustments in areas that I asked gladly. I would recommend TerraFirm Foundation Systems to others. My back was out, the guys removed items from side of the house. Please give the installation team our thanks

TerraFirma did a great job with the earthquake update on our home. They were friendly and performed the work in the time expected and at the agreed cost.
From the point of the initial call for an estimate to the time of service, we have been impressed with the level of profession service and caring. Every communication has been thorough and reassuring, always answering questions completely. Dan, the estimator, was outstanding, fully explaining how the project would address our issues and the steps to expect. Tyler and John, who worked on the project, were also exceptional. They worked quickly and professionally and fully explained what we can expect throughout the process. We highly recommend Terra Firma!
Polite, Prompt ,Professional…..that about sums it up.
The crew was polite, informative and great personalities. They cleaned up fantastic. Even the neighbors commented.
I'd been putting off fixing our sunken garage for a few years. With the flooding seasons getting more and more distinct, it was time. i called a few...
Their salesman Sam came out to my property and did a great job answering any and all questions I had. He was very detailed and knowledgeable. He showed us a very cool informational video that gave me a lot more understanding of his scope of work. He was professional and polite. Would highly recommend!
We had two companies come and provide evaluations of our foundation repair needs. TerraFirma was by far the most professional and responsive company. In the end we did not go with the lowest bid but we did go with the company that provided the most professional response and gave use the most confidence it would be done right. We were not disappointed 🙂
Jorge Valencia, Juan and Manuel were a fantastic crew. I would definitely recommend Terra Firma.
