About Our Founder

Founder: Steve Burak

Steve Burak woke up every day and went to Foundation and Crawl Space Repair of Idaho to do what he loved most: building, planning, and ensuring his customers’ properties were safe and secure. Steve was in the construction business for over 50 years, building homes and undertaking remodeling projects. He lived in Emmett with his family, and in his spare time, he enjoyed fishing and flying airplanes. Steve surrendered his earthly body to rest in peace on June 16, 2023, after a courageous 14-month battle with cancer. Steve will forever be missed and honored at Foundation and Crawl Space Repair of Idaho, and his legacy continues with the new owner, Larry Janesky.
