Inspector Chris Schweisthal was absolutely amazing. He sat down with us before and after the inspection. Listening to our questions, concerns, and ideas. He explained the why behind all of the items he saw. While going over the plan to fix the items discovered he made sure we understood every step and answered all questions. He even took our ideas into account explained why some would not work and even agreeing to others. It really felt like we were a team working together toward a solution.

I had leaks all across my basement, so I called Ohio Basement Authority since I saw them working on a neighbors property. Jared Brown, my project manager, inspected the problems and got a plan in motion within days of calling. He helped me with any questions I had (even after completion) and kept the project goals reasonable. Once construction started (busy season, month delay) they were done within a few days. Job was done quickly and professionally with the mess very well contained. I definitely recommend them if you’re having foundation issues like I was!

The folks at Ohio Basement Authority were able to quickly able to schedule an appointment and send a rep out to do an estimate when I found out I had water intrusion in my basement. Their rep, Dakota Hruby, was a consummate professional. He clearly explained everything and answered all my questions. He helped put my mind at ease during this very stressful time.

Great experience from sales to job completion. William’s crew (Levi and Russel) were great with communication, took care to make sure dust didn’t get everywhere. Our basement looks great and looking forward to it being dry after the next rain. Thanks!

OBA encapsulated our home's crawl space, including insulation, in late February, 2026. Giovanni and his team were in and out in just six hours, and kept us well informed on the progress. They really knew what they were doing and couldn't have been easier to work with.

Ohio Basement Systems Certified Field Inspector Jacob Letner was very informative about the company and the work to be done having our garage leveled. Jacob Letner's was on time and very precise and honest! He showed us work that we thought had to be done and through the proof of the instruments he used was proof that we did not need basement work. Thank you Jacob Letner!

Ricky, Maurice and Jason did a good job with the basement and putting in the sump pump. They cleaned up after themselves. There was an issue with the water line and they scheduled the appointment to have it fixed.

Very friendly when I called in. Scheduled fee estimate although I wasn’t sure they did what I needed. Even Eakle showed up at scheduled time. Immediately realized I didn’t currently need their services. I showed him what my problem was, and he actually with the use of one little tool fixed my problem perfectly on all five window wells. He was such a friendly guy great customer service. I would highly highly recommend using them if you would ever need waterproofing cement, leveling, or any other other other services I would definitely give them a call. I believe he is out of the Kent office. I’m not sure he did have a 216 area code exchange, he did a fabulous job if I ever need any waterproofing or here of anybody that needs it I would definitely tell him to call these people

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!

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!
