I was really impressed with the quoting experience with Mark! He was friendly, thorough and offered me a few different solutions without feeling "salesy". Unfortunately, the potential foundation repairs were for a home that I was under contract to buy, but had to backout because the seller refused to lower the purchase price to compensate. However, based on the genuine experience with Mark, I'd recommend this company!

We’re currently having basement work done by OBA. During the process, their electrician, Brandon, identified a serious issue with our main panel. We’d had problems in the past but hadn’t realized the extent of the danger. OBA was great about working with us to include a panel replacement in the project scope. Brandon completed the job the same day and was a pleasure to talk with. Their plumber, Cory, also stayed to help and had our water system back online that same day. *I’ll provide further updates once the structural work is complete, but so far, so good!

Ohio Basement Authority installed an egress window for me. Joe Stuber and his crew were a pleasure to work with. The excavation and block cutting necessary for installation of an egress window are messy jobs. I appreciated the fact that Joe and his crew took extra care to keep the mess to an absolute minimum. Joe was also great about letting me know what his intentions were for the job and confirming that his intentions would meet my expectations. As a result, I couldn’t be more pleased with my new window and the people at OBA.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Matt Koons from Basement Authority for an evaluation of my concrete driveway and walkway. From the moment he arrived, Matt was exceptionally polite, professional, and courteous. He conducted a comprehensive evaluation, thoroughly explaining the process and answering all my questions. What truly impressed me was his ability to create a custom quote on the spot, while fully honoring my specific wishes and concerns. Matt's expertise was evident, and I felt completely confident in his assessment. But what truly set him apart was his character. As he was leaving, he noticed a stranger struggling to break down and load some outdoor storage I had placed at the curb. Without hesitation, Matt jumped in to help, demonstrating genuine kindness and a willingness to go above and beyond. Matt Koons and Basement Authority have earned my highest recommendation. Their professionalism, expertise, and commitment to customer satisfaction are truly outstanding. If you need concrete lifting or any basement services, don't hesitate to call them. 5 stars!

Justin was wonderful. He provided an array of ways to go about my project depending on what made sense for my budget. My favorite part about Justin’s free quote was that he truly prioritized what I needed & avoided the opportunity to upsell me on unnecessary solutions. Justin was passionate about his job and the impact he is making by giving people a sense of control over their homes!

Chase Clemens came out to the house and spent several hours doing a detailed inspection and analysis of our basement. He presented all the possible solutions, pros and cons of each, and pitched a thoughtful recommendation. We were ultimately sold when he sang multiple verses of “Baby Shark” including the dance. Really brought it home. It went something like…. Baby shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Baby shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Baby shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Baby shark Mommy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Mommy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Mommy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Mommy shark Daddy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Daddy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Daddy shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Daddy shark Grandma shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandma shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandma shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandma shark Grandpa shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandpa shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandpa shark, do, do, do-do, do-do Grandpa shark

Nick was incredibly knowledgeable and honest about the work we needed and the associated costs. He came to our home, took the time to have a thorough conversation with us, and answered every question we had. He’s genuine, professional, and truly seems to care about both our home and making sure the foundation work is done right. I would absolutely recommend him and the company to anyone looking for a quote!

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.
