Killer experience. My basement went from feeling like a cave in death trap to a safe sturdy place welcome for guests. Jokes aside, the work performed initially as well as the yearly tune up and inspections have been extremely satisfying. Just had my last inspection with Kyle where he exceeded all expectations and was very friendly the entire time. I fully recommend the company, and will be contacting them for future projects.

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.

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.

Rob Jennings and his crew were super per nice and professional in the worst of conditions. They left our house clean while in and out dozens of times and tracking through snow mud and ice. Looking forward to not worrying about sumo and drainage line issues.
