About Us........
Edgebuilder Wall Panels, Inc., a leader in panelized construction, is the exclusive manufacturer of the Woodmaster Foundation System.

Over thirty-five years ago, its founders began designing and installing Woodmaster Foundation Systems after experiencing the disadvantages associated with concrete foundations.

Since inception, thousands of Woodmaster Foundations have been installed across the country; positioning Woodmaster as a leader in the residential foundation industry. Engineer designed Woodmaster Foundations were so effective at solving the problems associated with concrete, that Woodmaster stepped outside the comfort zone of other foundation builders and introduced the industry's only long-term warranty program.

WHY CHOOSE OUR FOUNDATION SYSTEM?

You deserve a "YES" to a better engineered home.

  1. YES IT WILL LAST. Many commercial structures, such as the Empire State Building, Brooklyn Bridge and even the Louisiana Superdome are supported on foundations of wood! Furthermore since 1960 over 400,000 wood foundations have been installed on personal residences in the United States and Canada. With the advanced technology in the area of insect and mildew resistant wood preservatives and foundations engineering every Woodmaster Foundation System that we install is guaranteed to last the life of the home.
  2. YES, IT'S WARM AND DRY. Imagine feeling a consistent inside temperature regardless of whether you are in the basement or on the first floor of your home. This is the number one comment by customers who said "YES" to a wood foundation! A Woodmaster foundation offers a warmer and more comfortable basement compared to the musty, damp and often cold environment associated with concrete construction methods. The outside of our foundation walls include a special ten mill polyethylene moisture barrier to keep your basement dry. If you want warm and dry, you need an engineered Woodmaster Foundation System!
  3. YES, IT'S MORE ENERGY EFFICIENT. How are Woodmaster Foundations more energy efficient? Unlike concrete, wood acts more like an insulator than a conductor. With a Woodmaster Foundation System, you will eliminate the problem of the persistent cold that transfers through concrete, thus reducing condensation and mildew, while at the same time increasing energy efficiency.
  4. YES, IT SAVES TIME & MONEY. One of the key questions asked by homeowners is "When can we expect to move in?" We like that question because Woodmaster Foundation systems are fully installed by our certified installations team just a few days after excavation. This means fewer costly weather-related delays. Furthermore, interior basement walls are ready for installation and wall finishing because the studs are already there! Less time and materials makes for efficient, cost-effective construction; resulting in faster occupancy.
  5. YES, IT'S BETTER QUALITY. Wooodmaster Foundation Systems offer tighter and more reliable construction standards. The corners are square. The walls are level. Cracks and leaks are not an issue. Your foundation walls will be preassembled indoors to the most exacting quality standards; both yours and ours. Then the walls are delivered to your site and professionally installed by our certified crews. And to top it off, your Woodmaster Foundation System will be backed by our leak-proof warranty.
  6. YES TO DESIGN FLEXIBILITY. With a Woodmaster Foundation System, our engineered design is very flexible and easily incorporates corners, bays, angles and custom heights. Changes happen. However, with our foundation, changes in design are much easier to make during and after construction. Walls can be moved and windows openings can be added, modified or even relocated much, much easier than with concrete foundations. Our design flexibility makes a Woodmaster Foundation System ideal for replacing old deteriorated foundations. We have experience in replacing foundations of failing concrete, clay, concrete block and mortared rock. Also, additions with Woodmaster Foundations are easily incorporated into homes with existing concrete foundations.
