Arrived when expected, completed the work as expected, and cleaned up. Very courteous and professional team. They buttoned up all the air leaks in our crawlspace and insulated all around. Was a very satisfactory experience. Will contact them again if we wish to do more.

Interior waterproofing project. I'm writing to highly commend supervisor Jake M. for stepping in to resolve a jam of a scheduling situation inherited from his coworkers. Jake was true to his word, he resolved the original no-show by others in a timely way and listened. The second crew, led by Ivan, was efficient and professional in completing the job – no problems so far. I would give Jake & crew 5 stars. Outside of them, there were major lack of communication issues from other people at company that I hope get improved.

Mark came out and took a look at our foundation. What we thought was a major foundation issue turned out not to be. He was completely up front and honest about it all. Can’t say enough good things about his honesty and ethics. Definitely would recommend them.

Ohio Basement Authority is the top choice for exceptional plumbing services at a competitive price. After maintaining my old sump pump for over 20 years, it finally gave out and it was time for a replacement. I was able to schedule an appointment at a time that worked best for me, and Kyle Lockard came out to install the new sump pump. He did an outstanding job! Kyle not only installed the new pump but also cleaned out a significant amount of grime that had built up over the years. Unlike other companies that simply check if the sump pump is working and call it maintenance, Ohio Basement Authority went above and beyond, as shown in the photos. I'm extremely grateful for the professional and thorough service they provided in replacing my sump pump the right way.
