I recently had the pleasure of working with Matt Koons from Basement Authority for an evaluation of my concrete driveway and walkway. From the moment he arrived, Matt was exceptionally polite, professional, and courteous. He conducted a comprehensive evaluation, thoroughly explaining the process and answering all my questions. What truly impressed me was his ability to create a custom quote on the spot, while fully honoring my specific wishes and concerns. Matt's expertise was evident, and I felt completely confident in his assessment. But what truly set him apart was his character. As he was leaving, he noticed a stranger struggling to break down and load some outdoor storage I had placed at the curb. Without hesitation, Matt jumped in to help, demonstrating genuine kindness and a willingness to go above and beyond. Matt Koons and Basement Authority have earned my highest recommendation. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly outstanding. If you need concrete lifting or any basement services, don't hesitate to call them. 5 stars!

I had oba come out and install tie backs in my wall a while back. One began leaking and they came resolved the issue and tested. Upon testing they found another leak and addressed that as well. I would highly recommend Ricky, Marice and Eddie if you ever need someone to do quality work and repairs in a friendly and efficient manner.

Today, Chase Clemens and Justin Bankcroft thoroughly inspected my house for structural concerns. (They were almost at my house for three hours.) I cannot begin to thank them enough for their knowledge, integrity and ethics. Another company gave me an estimate of almost $29,000 and Chase said that none of that work needed to be done. Chase and Justin identified the problem (my roof) and assured me it was not a problem with the house structure itself. Not only did they save me an enormous amount of money, but they restored my faith in people. There are ethical professionals in this world and they are certainly two of them. Both of these men were so professional and knowledgeable, I am beyond grateful. I feel very blessed.

Ohio Basement Authority did a great job! They were friendly and helpful from the moment we contacted them until the job was finished. We received a quote and explanation from Caleb that explained the project in detail. Caden and Serg did an excellent job on the repair work raising our porch and walkway. Thank you for a great job and experience.

Jayson Wright just completed the first annual maintenance on my OBA sump pump system and he did an excellent job. Jayson was very professional, experienced and knowledgeable. He did a great job explaining my sump pump functioning and how to make sure everything was working properly. Jayson also identified a couple of other items, not related to my sump pump, that we can address that will improve the overall comfort and appearance of our lake house. Thanks for a great job Jayson!

Matt M. did a walk around outside of our house for foundation cracks or problems before he inspected the crawlspace. My wife and I sat down with Matt and were very happy with his assessment to address our concerns. We set a date and time to begin work to install additional Jacpipes and beams. Iran H. and Chris M. called the night before to authorize an earlier start time. They arrived on time. They began working in the crawlspace and cleaned up the work area. Iran and Chris showed us pics and stated they will return to make the adjustments to the jacposts. Very courteous and professional. We recommend the company.

Matt Koons, Ohio Basement Authority, came to look at what we needed, explained the work process to us, gave us our estimate, and explained all of the contract. We got scheduled and then our work date was moved up due to a cancellation, so our entire job (estimate to completion) was finished in less than a week. Very happy with our project and with Ohio Basement Authority.
