Foundation Repair in BTR

Any recommendations for a foundation repair company or who to avoid in the area? We have an older pier and beam house that is starting to have some cracks in the kitchen floor.
The only company I know of is WCK because of their commercials

I used WCK on a slab foundation. As far as I could tell, they did what they proposed at the price they quoted, on schedule.

That's typically done by a construction company since it is elevated. Unless you have some major subsidence at the piers the beams are jacked up and shims are added to the sill plates until level.

I used WCK on a slab foundation also. They're in Denham Springs and do a professional job.

WCK does good work on pier and beam homes.
Pro tip- if the warranty isnt something you're super worried about... you can ask one of the supervisors to do it as a side job instead.
You'll get a better price and probably have it done sooner.

National Foundation Repair did work on my house before I bought it. Could be another option for a quote.

I think this likely applies to my situation. We have an old pier and beam house that has experienced settling over the years, making the floor not level. I'd like to have someone come take a look at it to get their thoughts on adding shims to the low spots.
Do y'all have anyone in mind that I should try contacting for this kind of thing?
Any other advice for me? Does this create a lot of cracks in sheet rock or plaster or any other issues I may not have thought of yet?

Structural repair? LOL
not to mention the “supervisor” won’t be insured for injury liability or property damage
