Initially I didn’t enjoy the work done by Ohio basement authority and left a bad review. However they sent a new crew at no charge. Alan and Frankie came and fixed the work done. They were both really professional and polite. I appreciate the work they did on my home and I hope that gets back to them somehow. Thanks for coming and fixing the previous work that I was unhappy with.

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.

Ohio Basement Authority did an excellent job on the basement drainage system. The Foreman Sam and his crew, Frank and Marvin were professional throughout the install. Answered any questions and concerns as well as providing explanation on all that was being completed. Would highly recommend OBA but more importantly Sam and his crew for anyone needing a basement drainage system.
