Where it started

Family ties. Contractor conversations. NFRA conference floors. The same story every time — foundation repair software built for someone else.

Foundation repair contractors protect homes, property values, and families. Oblyss protects the businesses doing that work.

The work is specialized.

The jobs are complex.

The stakes are high.

The software wasn't built for it.

Why foundation repair became personal

This was not a market we stumbled into. It was a community we already knew.

Our founder, Rachael Jackson, has been connected to the foundation repair world for years.

Her family owns a foundation repair company, and she has spent the last three years attending the NFRA conference, listening to contractors, learning the language of the trade, and seeing firsthand how this industry operates.

What stood out was not just the complexity of the work. It was the pride behind it. Foundation repair contractors solve problems most homeowners do not fully understand until something starts cracking, shifting, sinking, leaking, or pulling away.

They walk into stressful situations. They explain structural problems in plain language. They coordinate inspections, repair plans, engineering requirements, permits, crews, materials, financing, documentation, and warranties.

They make decisions that can affect the value, safety, and long-term stability of a home. And yet, despite all of that, foundation repair has often been treated like a small corner of home services instead of the specialized structural trade it really is.

That never sat right with us.

The Gap We Kept Seeing

The work was specialized. The tools were not.

Contractors were running serious structural repair businesses with systems that were never built for the way their jobs actually move.

A CRM for leads.

A spreadsheet for job tracking.

QuickBooks for billing.

Text messages for customer updates.

Folders for documents.

Separate tools for estimates, photos, forms, marketing, and warranties.

Every tool solved a piece of the problem. None of them connected the full job.
That created more than inconvenience. It created missed follow-up, delayed jobs, unclear handoffs, messy documentation, billing moments that depended on memory, and warranty records that were harder to find than they should be.

For an industry doing work this important, that was not good enough.

Why Oblyss Exists

We wanted to build the tool the industry kept trying to find.

After years around foundation repair contractors, one thing became clear:

Oblyss was built around that workflow from the beginning, so foundation repair companies do not have to bend their process around software designed for a completely different trade. Because a foundation repair job does not move like a water heater replacement. It can involve a nervous homeowner, a structural inspection, a per-pier repair plan, an engineer, a city permit office, a production schedule, a materials order, a financing partner, milestone billing, closeout documentation, and a warranty record that may matter years later.

The goal is simple:
Give foundation repair contractors one connected place to run the business they actually run.

More Than Software

Oblyss is also about helping the industry become better understood.

One of the biggest problems in foundation repair is not just operational. It is informational. The industry needs better data. Better benchmarks. Better visibility. Better research. Better proof of what contractors are already seeing every day in the field.

Questions like

How long are permits really taking by region?

How long do engineering holds actually last?

Which repair types are increasing?

Where are jobs getting stuck?

Where are companies losing the most time?

What does a healthy foundation repair operation look like?

What data would help the industry earn more recognition, better resources, and more informed standards?

Oblyss is being built with that bigger purpose in mind.

With user permission, privacy controls, and anonymized reporting, Oblyss can help support the future of foundation repair research while keeping company and customer data private, protected, and never sold.

Our goal is not just to help contractors manage their own businesses better. It is to help the industry become better understood.

Why NFRA Matters to Us

The future of the industry should be shaped with the people already raising the standard.

Rachael has attended the NFRA conference for the past three years because it is one of the places where the foundation repair industry gathers, shares knowledge, builds relationships, and talks honestly about what needs to improve. That matters to Oblyss. Foundation repair does not need outsiders guessing at its problems. It needs builders, contractors, suppliers, engineers, associations, educators, and industry leaders working from the reality of the trade. Oblyss is not coming into foundation repair to tell contractors how to run their companies. We are here to listen, build, and contribute. The software is one part of that. Helping the industry build better data, cleaner workflows, stronger records, and greater recognition is the bigger mission.

Oblyss is not affiliated with or endorsed by the National Foundation Repair Association unless expressly stated.

What We Believe

Foundation repair deserves its own category.

We believe foundation repair is not a footnote inside home services.
It is a specialized, structural, high-trust trade with its own workflow, risks, language, products, documentation needs, and standards.
We believe contractors should not have to run multi-stage projects from scattered tools.
We believe the industry deserves better benchmarks, better resources, and better recognition.
We believe software should make the trade stronger — not just more automated.
And we believe the best version of Oblyss will be built with the contractors, suppliers, engineers, associations, and industry leaders who already care about where foundation repair is going.

Where we are going

We are building the operating system for the next chapter of foundation repair.

Oblyss starts with the day-to-day workflow:

But the long-term vision is bigger. We want Oblyss to become part of the infrastructure that helps foundation repair companies operate cleaner, grow smarter, protect their records, understand their performance, and contribute to a more recognized, better-resourced industry. That is why we are building with Founding Partners first. Not because we need users to validate a generic software idea. Because the people doing the work should help shape the platform that runs it.

“Foundation repair is not just a market to me. It is a community I have been part of, learned from, and grown to care deeply about. Oblyss is my way of helping this industry get the technology, data, and recognition it has deserved for a long time.”

— Rachael Jackson, Founder & CEO

Help build what foundation repair has been missing.

If you are a foundation repair contractor, industry partner, or NFRA member who believes this trade deserves better software, better data, and stronger recognition, we want your voice in the room.

Founding Partners get early access, direct input into the roadmap, founding-partner pricing, and a direct line to the team building Oblyss.

This is not software guessed from the outside.

It is being built with the people who know the work.

Comparison, industry, association, and research-related language . Oblyss is being built to support the future of foundation repair research through permission-based, anonymized industry data.

Foundation repair deserved better. So we started building it.
