I recently had the pleasure of working with Kyle R. from Ohio Basement Authority on a challenging basement project, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. While the job took longer than initially expected due to unforeseen complications, Kyle's commitment and professionalism never wavered. He consistently followed through on every promise he made, keeping me informed and at ease throughout the process. Kyle was joined by Slade R. and Bryan K., who were incredible teammates. These two were hardworking, reliable, and just as pleasant to have around. They worked tirelessly, never once slowing down or losing focus. The team as a whole was exceptional, and their efforts were truly appreciated. What stood out the most, though, was Kyle's attitude. Even when problems arose, which inevitably happens with a job of this magnitude, he maintained the most positive and professional demeanor I’ve ever encountered with anyone working in my home. He approached each challenge with a smile, finding solutions without letting it affect the quality of his work or the rapport he built with us. Kyle is the kind of worker you don’t come across every day. If I had to pay double to have Kyle back for every project, I absolutely would—it’s that rare to find someone as dedicated and trustworthy as him. Overall, I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience and the results. If you’re looking for a team that will treat your home with the utmost care, work tirelessly, and deliver outstanding results, you simply can’t go wrong with Kyle, Slade, and Bryan.

Totally appreciated the work done in our crawl space by Iram H, Chris M and Jason. They worked efficiently, replaced the insulation and came up with a way to close off the openings while still keeping them ventilated.

I called to have the foundation of my home repaired. My floor boards were moving, there was a crack in my center wall. My anxiety was through the roof and I was dreading spending several thousands or tens of thousands of dollars. Mr. Hollis Smith showed up promptly, professionally and friendly. I explained to him my concerns and showed him the issues. After a few hours he basically tells me that the guy I hired to put jack stands in the basement installed them wrong. He also cranked them too high, pushing up on the floors and causing the crack in the wall and the floorboard separation. He then tells me the jack stands were not even needed. What I thought was a massive hole and faulty foundation was perfectly fine. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone. He could have really taken me to the bank for work I did not need done and he didn’t. That’s integrity! He is looking at a few other jobs that we would like to have now. Jobs there are not urgent. We look forward to working with his professionalism, honesty and expertise!

When my basement flooded, OBA was there within an hour. Chris Masselli, the tech, jumped right in to figure out what was going on. Without my even asking, they replaced my sump pumps (and added one more) and dehumidifier which had been ruined, under my warranty. As we tried to figure out what was causing the intrusion, Chris came out at least half a dozen times with just a phone call, including being at my house until after 11 one night. Tracen and his crew, Ciande and Ali, rearranged their work schedule to make sure needed work was done before the rain came. I have an old house, so they had to do a lot of problem-solving to find a solution for us. They were professional, friendly, and did excellent work. Kaleb called to help me with another related problem, found us an answer, and then followed up to make sure everything worked out. They stayed in touch with me every single day for two weeks until everything was good. They even provided an extended maintenance contract to ensure that any possible problems in the future would be addressed. If I had to use one word to describe this company, it would be integrity. Every single interaction was professional. They went above and beyond in every way and made sure I had the outcome I needed. Finding quality companies to do work in our home has been a struggle, but this is what high quality looks like. If every company did business like this, it would be so much better. Highly, highly recommend.
