Wayne Gray with Ohio Basement Authority was great to work with. We called to get a quote for leveling our driveway, and he was extremely thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything clearly and answered all of our questions without rushing us. Wayne was professional, respectful of our time, and genuinely helpful. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a detailed and professional evaluation.

William and his crew were great! Very professional and courteous. Issues were as follows: Evan the salesman mentioned that we might need to remove the laundry sink at our first walkthrough. But around one week before they were due to arrive for the job, I called to ask about it and he had forgotten about it. He did help me find a really good plumber at a discount to correct this. The next issue was that the board to repair the base of the house was not going to fit, and they did not have the right equipment to do that job. The job got postponed by at least 2 weeks due to other scheduled jobs and staff vacation. In addition, William had to do a job during the morning of our scheduled work which put them back 1/2 day. I really appreciate that this company is family owned, but it feels like they are stretched a bit thin with staffing and equipment.

Eric did a thorough job reviewing my home after a relocation inspector pointed out concerns with some cracking in the foundation of my home. He remained professional and honest in his assessment of the situation while many may have tried to deceive and oversell when they heard relocation he showed great character in his review and approach. I highly recommend Eric for an honest and thorough evaluation of your home!

From the field inspector, Tanner, to the foreman, Joseph, the experience has been great! Everyone was very professional and communicated well. Tanner did an excellent job with his inspection, information presented via short videos and actual samples of the materials and then communicating options and prices. Joseph and his crew showed up on time, very courteous, explained the job, and cleaned up completely. The work done was a crawlspace waterproofing system and encapsulation.

Chris Schweisthal provided us with a great inspection and repair recommendation for concrete settling we've witnessed within our garage, driveway, and front stoop/apron. While we weren't able to immediately sign a contract, he was quite friendly and professional to work with and did not pressure us into a contract. He answered all of questions. We'll definitely keep him and Ohio Basement Authority in mind if we move forward.

Totally appreciated the work done in our crawl space by Iram H, Chris M and Jason. They worked efficiently, replaced the insulation and came up with a way to close off the openings while still keeping them ventilated.
