Chelsa came out, did a very thorough inspection, and gave an estimate on replacing a rotten sill plate. Iran,Chris, and Zach came the next week right on time, they were very polite and professional and did a great job. I do feel the price I paid was a bit high for a 3 hour repair and $150 in lumber, but the people were great.

We had 5 different companies come out and look at our crawlspace. James, our inspector with Ohio Basement Authority, was the only one who we truly felt had our best interest in mind. He was the only one who we really felt listened to our concerns/wants and went above and beyond to create the solution that worked best for our situation. The knowledge-base he extended to us throughout the process and his availability for questions and follow-ups was second to none. The level of service and commitment James put into working with us not only will have us coming back to OBA exclusively for waterproofing needs, but also will be the first and only recommendation I will make to anyone I encounter needing similar solutions. Appreciate all of you!

Dave, Jonathan and Eric were very respectful of our home and did a fantastic job with our foundation repair. They communicated when each step was done at the end of the day and what to expect the next time they would be here. They were here every day they said they would be and did not keep us waiting. The bricks look amazing and they sealed everything nicely. Thanks again!

This outfit is meticulous in their service delivery! Everything was handled so professionally from the outset. From the estimation process to the completion of the project I felt taken care of rather than taken advantage of. The crew did an amazing job on our sidewalk that had sunk in front of our house and made it safe for everyone.

We hired Basement Authority to fix our foundation, and overall we had a very good experience. There was a small issue during the process, but the company really stepped up and took care of it promptly and professionally. It meant a lot to us that they stood behind their work and made sure everything was done right. That kind of accountability is hard to find this these days thank you Annette Finlayson
