Foundation Repair Cost in Westchester, NY
Short answer
Foundation repair spans a very wide range. HomeBlue's White Plains guide gives $2,800 to $29,500 for major repairs involving underpinning or piles and $2,400 to $4,700 for minor crack repair with basic waterproofing, but notes the range is broad because every job differs. A modeled Yonkers estimate (RenoVetted) puts pier or repair-point work around $528 to $2,112 per point, or about $4,200 to $16,900 for an 8-point job. National HomeGuide figures put crack injection at $250 to $800 and bowed wall repair at $5,000 to $15,000. Only a structural evaluation can tell you which applies to your home.
