Michael Davies came out and fixed a couple issues with root systems and adjusted the dehumidifier. Was very thorough and informative the entire time. Explained what was going on in detail. The pipes flowing out were dug up replaced and grass put back. All by one guy in 90 degree weather. Great service.

Stephen from Ohio Basement Authority was able to come at emergency notice and fix a problem with my sump pump that was causing it to spill water into my basement during a storm. Even if he hadn’t been able to come so quickly he had already put out a notification to other basement waterproofing companies in our area that there was an emergency and that I needed help quickly, putting my needs over that of any monetary motivation.

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.

We haven't scheduled service yet, but Eric Henderson came out to do a full inspection of our basement. He was very thorough and told us multiple options of solutions for our basement. He was not pushy and seemed to really believe in his company's solutions.

This review is strictly based on the inspection/estimate phase. Everette Butler was extremely thorough, personable and knowledgeable. I couldn’t be more impressed with him and the company so far. I have had other estimates from their competitors with similar ratings – the quality and first impressions have been night and day.

Norbert came for the service warranty work. He was very thorough with his inspection. No pressure sales just told me info I needed. Hoping these sump pumps keep working great for the foreseeable future

The team of “Q” (Quintin), Avery, Drake, and David were Friendly and Hard workers. They stayed in touch with us all along the way! It Was not an easy project and they did a thorough walk through afterwards to explain the detail of the process!

Ohio Basement Authority did not provide the cheapest estimate, but they were the most professional in their presentation. Dan made a thorough inspection of our house and then spent much time explaining the problem and how they would fix it. We were very impressed with Dan , and the company.
