My wife and I had a few contractors out to our property to assess our sinking garage slab issue. We ultimately decided to use Ohio Basement Authority as the consultant Nick came out, took measurements and provided details that others could not. We moved forward with having 5 piers installed under the slab. The team that came out to complete the work was Sean, Nick, and Elijah. What a team! They were awesome! They arrived on time, walked us through the process and had it all completed in the same day. Our floors is now even and the gaps that existed are now gone in the walls. Thank you to your team for taking care of this project for us. They also made it super easy with Payment Options for us as well which is perfect around the holiday season.

We would like to share our experience with Zeke Fowler who came to our home today (2/16/23) to provide a free estimate to repair our front porch steps that are leaning by 1-1/4 inch. Although we haven't committed to the service and are still considering all our options, Zeke was was extremely professional, very thorough, trustworthy and a wealth of knowledge. He actually went above and beyond by getting to the root cause of the leaning and pointed out other areas that could be of concern. He was able to point out that our down spouts are not draining the rain water out to the street, thus causing water to pool and saturate the front yard where a large size dip has formed over a couple of decades. So, he not only provided the reasonable cost to perform the repairs but he also pointed out other areas of our property, specifically the sidewalks where there is some unevenness that has the potential for trip hazards. We are so thankful that Zeke was the person that Ohio Basement Authority sent to our home today, because we can't imagine anyone else with more expert knowledge than him. If you are a homeowner in need of their services, we highly recommend Zeke to be the person you could request. Thanks again.

Caleb T. came to our home and did a maintenance inspection for the foundation repairs completed later year. He did a great job, was very professional and polite, and helped ensure everything was in great condition. Then, he helped to resolve an issue with our sump pump outdoor piping; he was quick and efficient in solving the issue presented. Thank you, Caleb!

Daniel,Jon,and Kyle showed up to redo trench drain. This is the fourth crew to do work for us. The five stars are for the professionalism and way they handled the job, not for Basauth. Poor management and lack of follow-up. This crew rectified a couple small issues other than the shitty drain work. Again if you used these guys as examples of good work ethic and doing the best job that they can with limited resources you might not have customers like me seriously questioning your business ethics and practices.

Had OBA waterproof the basement previously. Reached out to Mark Overmyer concerning a crack I noticed outside in the foundation. He was quick to follow up and came by a couple days later to take measurements and assess. Really friendly and helpful experience. Thank you again Mark!

Joe and his crew were fantastic! They came in and got the job done. Above and beyond! They even linked in back downspout in close vacinity to the discharge line. Looks great. Any questions I had were answered. They let me know when they were coming and finished in 2 days! I was impressed with this crew and company. Love this system so far, very quiet. Test is coming with the upcoming season and it is life time warranty! Cannot wait for phase 2 finishing to have dry and complete basement!

James came to our property to discuss some concrete leveling early on a very rainy Saturday morning, and I could not have asked for a more honest representative for Ohio Basement Authority. While we will not be moving forward with this specific job, we will certainly be contacting them for any future needs. He was candid, open, and honest.
