About Foundation Specialties of
Northwest Arkansas

During the mid thru the late '90s, both our sales and the Northwest Arkansas area grew quite rapidly. We began focusing harder on building a more structured management and operations team. Additional personnel was added to fill in the much-needed voids. During this period our corporate name was changed to “Foundation Specialties, Inc. “.

​

In 2001 it was decided that Foundation Specialties would implement a new benefits program. The company would become employee-owned. Effective with the year 2001, the company adopted a new employee benefit plan called an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). ESOPs are becoming an increasingly popular benefit for employees and employers alike and the company is currently excited about its future. (For more information on our ESOP follow this link "FSI - ESOP").

​

In 2002 we further developed our drainage remediation and waterproofing efforts by the addition of the Basement Systems line of products. Basement Systems offers an excellent interior basement waterproofing alternative to the common industry practice of exterior waterproofing. This alternative has proven to be reliable and significantly less costly to homeowners who have had problems with basement moisture control.

In 2003 we took our basement waterproofing efforts a step further by becoming installers of the Tremco Barrier Solutions products. We utilize Tremco products on New Construction Wall Waterproofing applications prior to backfilling the wall.

​

In the year 2006, our company began work on a new division within our company called the Geo-Construction Division. This division would be headed up by Corporate President Paul Gintonio and would pursue Micro Pile Technology. It was determined that this division would dovetail nicely with our Repair Division and fit within the corporate scheme of who we are and what we do in providing “cutting edge” technology to those whom we serve.
