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.

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.

TerraFirma raised a settled front porch on our rental property in Olympia. Raised it almost 6". That went just as discussed, no surprises and obviously...
Crew did very fine job stabilizing sinking corner part of my house thanks to Mike and his colleagues.
I don’t usually do reviews but in this case people should know this is a first class company. Great communications and no selling you on something you don’t need. John was very professional, he spent time with us expanding what issues he did find, measured the level of the floors, inspected under the house and checked wall and foundation cracks. He also placed a blanket down to collect any dirt from entering and exiting the crawl space inside the house. I highly recommend John from the Eugene office and TerraFirma.
We had a good experience with Terra Firma. We had 6 different estimates and went with their company because they did not try to sell us on something we didn’t need. After reviewing all the estimates, and talking to Bailey, the system design specialist, we realized that we did not need our foundation lifted to fix our sinking kitchen floor but instead, we needed stabilizing and lifting of the floor joist under our kitchen. TerraFirma also installed a new beam in our family room and lifted our settled concrete in our front walkway. They also buried a downspout which was draining into our front yard next to our walkway.

Every Terra Firma employee who came to our house; Bailey, Jorge, Robert and the rest of their team, were on-time, polite and did their job efficiently. They answered our questions, kept us updated on the work they were doing and cleaned up after themselves. I would definitely recommend this company.
Bailey Mercer-system design specialist made a visit to my home to provide an estimate for foundation work. He was professional, well-mannered and easy to talk to. Assessment was thorough with all my questions being clearly answered. Great experience overall!
excellent customer services, excellent communication and services, the Best in the northwest
Pat was so good not only at his job, but is an extremely personable type of communicator, is polite and most of all knowledgeable. I’d say he is going places with this company! It is hard to find adequate people these days, let alone someone who is capable of carrying on an educated and informed conversation while listening to my questions and concerns , then actually (past 5 pm on over-time) taking the time to explain them. He was patient and kind to both me and my young daughter. I appreciated his honesty about working with connected buildings, even if it risked new business for his company. If he isn’t already a manager, he soon will be! If you call Terra Firma i’d suggest asking for Par and if Pat works for you, I’d suggest a raise next review!! lol
Had a great experience with Derek Ryan…very knowledgeable, professional and explained everything to our satisfaction. He also provided follow up support, which was much appreciated!
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...
While I did not choose TerraFirma for my project, it was still a very positive experience. I would definitely call them again if something came up in the future. From scheduling through the bidding process, they were responsive and organized - seemed to have all their ducks in a row. Bailey came out to inspect and put together a bid - he was on time, incredibly organized, thorough, knowledgeable, friendly, and communicative.
Bailey demonstrated exceptional attention to detail and expertise when inspecting the house foundation, ensuring everything was up to code and structurally sound. He addressed the issues I was concerned about and was very honest on his findings.
The crew that stabilized the back corner of my house was experienced, professional, efficient and communicative. Luke, Tyson and Kyle kept me informed on their progress, discussed recommended changes to the original work order, reviewed the results of their work and left the site clean.
I just want to share that they showed up on time, did the work they promised to do and they applied unforeseen discounts to the final bill that were unexpected. Shaving thousands off my bill at the very end. In a word “Trustworthy”.
I recently requested an evaluation from Terra Firma for a vacation property, far from many resources, and where many companies will not work. Bailey came out, on time, prepared to do a full examination of the issue and give me a quote with options before even leaving the property. I was greatly surprised by the response. Bailey was extremely professional but also personal, and also educational. I wasn't even sure if we had an issue that needed attention in the near future. He helped me to understand the nature of the issues and the best steps forward to having a safer and better protected home. Terra Firma was also extremely patient as I did more research and confirmed the findings. We now have a plan for how to move forward. I would highly recommend Terra Firma both for their work, but also for how they care for their employees. They are not just looking for a job and money, but are truly looking to partner to make life better for all involved.
Didn't end up choosing TerraFirma for the work we are doing but they were very professional and helpful through the whole process, especially our rep, Bailey. Recommend including them in the bids you get if you need foundation work.
We had a fantastic experience with TerraFirma Foundation Systems! Their team quickly and accurately diagnosed our foundation issue and clearly explained multiple repair options, which helped us feel informed and confident in our decision.

Once work began, they oversaw everything from start to finish with professionalism and great communication. The crew working in our crawl space was hardworking and efficient — they did a great job installing a French drain and sump pump, and left the area clean and well-organized.

We really appreciated how smoothly the whole process went. Highly recommend TerraFirma to anyone needing foundation or drainage work!
Living in a 30-year-old home for the past two decades we've had several phases of upgrades, but one thing has always been absent from a 10x10 slab on our...
Everything was done well and efficiently, The team communicated well with me, and cleaned up after themselves. It was expensive, but I feel confident that the job was done well.
Quoted me $80k for proprietary solutions to some problems I do have, and some I don’t actually have. Took a bunch of pictures, showed them to me, but conveniently never sent them to me and thought it was weird I asked for the proposals to be emailed to me.

I decided to get a few other opinions and boy am I glad I did. Lying to me is one thing, but doubling down on the phone when you call me to ask if I’ve had time to consider scheduling the work is another.

I vote with my wallet and I have zero respect for a company that uses scare tactics or attempts to fudge the truth when they think the consumer isn’t educated enough on the subject to put two and two together.

Being a homeowner is hard and expensive enough… but then you have to navigate whether or not someone is trying to help you or empty your wallet for commission. This was arguably a worse experience than being a woman at the car dealership. No, I am not interested in purchasing blinker fluid…

Edit: With a continuous improvement mindset, I do appreciate someone at Terra Firma reaching out to me directly to understand the details of my experience so they could work to resolve internally.
Schylar Powers showed up to fix our garage floor and was very professional the whole while he was working. He explained to us what he was going to do and showed us step by step as he went along. It is beautiful and we really appreciate the service. Thank you.
We had a great experience with TerraFirma. The crew that waterproofed our basement were Aris, Manuel, and Cristian, and they were super pro and cleaned up everyday after work. This crew was just great, they were friendly and worked hard every day. Give these guys a raise!
I used Terrafirma for foundation support repair. I found the staff and work crew very honest and extremely thorough! Was a little outside my budget, but I was so happy that I chose them! Satisfaction in every area is so worth it!!
Will choose them over and over and refer!
AE
Fantastic job leveling out settled patio concrete slabs. Very efficient work done in about 4 hours. One area had a 2” trip hazard between slabs, now nothing! 5 year guarantee but should last 80 years
Terra Firma is professional and operates with integrity
Quinten was awesome. We weren't home when he showed up. I though we would have to reschedule but Quinten waited and was very pleasant about our delay. He made sure everything was working and explained the system to us. Thank you Quinten for coming out today and sorry again that we were late. Will recommend always to friends and Family.
Professional, considerate and competent. The crew all the way to the office was a pleasure to work with. A major project was done. They made it look easy!
Thanks again Conner Brad and James.
They scheduled for a week but were done in 3 & half days.
Worked around my gigantic existing sump pump cleaned out debris from the plumbers and sealed off my crawls space. Travis & is team were fantastic! Highly recommend the company & Travis's team to everyone.
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...
Skylar did an outstanding job. Very knowledgeable. Very pleased with the results. Joe Henslee
Excellent! Schyler was here right on time. He was friendly, courteous, cleaned up the work area well. Explained things and even helped me move my table back. Highly recommend.
Bailey was timely and thorough in his assessment, estimate, and reporting on my inquiry about a foundation crack. Although I decided not to have any work done at this time I was pleased with their service.
We discovered water in our basement this past April and first called the competitor who had installed a waterproofing system back in 2015 for the previous owners. Unfortunately, their visit wasn’t very helpful -- they didn’t offer a clear solution or give us much confidence that they even wanted to do any work on our 115-year-old house. That’s when we reached out to TerraFirma for a second opinion, and it was the best decision we could have made.

From the very beginning, Jaden, our System Design Specialist, was outstanding. He was thorough, thoughtful, and really listened to our concerns. He walked us through options, answered all our questions, and came up with a solution that felt right for our home. Scheduling with Sammy was easy and helpful - she worked around our vacation schedule, and we always knew what was happening and when.

When it came time for the work, Rocky and his team did an excellent job installing our new egress window, while Jorge, Juan, and Scott rebuilt our failed irrigation system from the under-ground up. Both teams were incredibly professional: always on time, tidy, communicative, and respectful of our neighbors (no small feat on our tight street with all the equipment and materials). Rocky went above & beyond with the window - making adjustments to the position and reinforcing our load bearing areas, and Jorge offered alternative and better solutions for our new sump-pump location that would ensure the functionality of our new system for decades to come.

Every step of the process with TerraFirma exceeded our expectations. We honestly wish we had found them sooner for all our home projects. They turned what started as a stressful basement issue turned into a smooth and positive experience. Highly recommend! Thank you all for your help - we're so happy with how everything turned out!
Absolutely Great Crew-Jorge,Juan and Manuel! Very Professional. Answer all my questions as they worked my Project. Very well organized. Used all the proper safety gear to remain healthy and virtually encapsulated with plastic the interior of my home to contain the dirt/debris tracked in from outside/under the house. They helped set up the electronic gizmos to my WiFi so I can monitor the system they installed. Very happy with the results.
My wife and I recently bought a house and after removing carpet in the addition, we found fairly large cracks in the slab. Not sure of the severity we called terrafirma. They sent Dan out. Super cool dude and very informative. He was able to give us a solution to our problem. They were also able to fit us into their schedule quickly which was nice considering we had bare floors that needed to be finished. I would highly recommend terrafirma and co!
I could not be more impressed with how informative, respectful, and honest Bailey was with my parents. He took a very stressful and emotional time, and eased their fears and took the time to really explain and educate them on the best option for their property. I am so grateful!
Very pleased with job done. The young man that did the work deserves all the credit. Prompt & professional.
Very easy to work with from the time I contacted them for a quote, to having someone come and look at the job, to scheduling the work. Professional, courteous, and good follow-up throughout the process. Job was completed to my satisfaction.
Five stars aren't enough. We had a sizable project on an old house in tight quarters with neighbors who were concerned. We knew going into our project that there was going to be a lot of guesswork in the planning, and that whomever we hired for the project would have to make changes on the fly. The planning team was very clear about what they knew, and what they were inferring based on their experience and what they might discover when they started excavating.

They presented us with us a few different proposals with breakdowns of the cost and a list of the pros and cons of every plan, answering all of our questions before we finalized our choice.

The whole team at Terra Firma was incredible throughout; clear, consistent communication about the progress on the project and how it evolved as the plans encountered reality. It was a job well done with consistent care and extra effort. Whether it was the on-site team or the office staff supporting the project, everyone was a genuine pleasure to work with.
Great expedience, very knowledgeable and helpful .
We have had our pump system for a little over a year now, the winter before we had up to over 1 ft of water under our house, this last winter nothing it was bone dry.
I can’t say enough good about your company.
We just had Jason out to do the first service on it and what a guy, he showed me how to check a couple things on the up coming season.
We will definitely have Jason back next year to do our service again that guy is an asset to your company!
Thank you
