Highly recommended! Had Chase out to look over my house a few days ago. He was very thorough and took the time to explain everything. Ended up giving us better news then we were expecting and also showing us a few things to help avoid future issues. We will be referring him and his company out with confidence

My first experience was with Chase C. Very knowledgeable and spent time explaining my complex basement settlement. He scheduled the work, guided me through what I needed to do before their work could begin. He offered another walk through two days before just to assure me. Thanks Chase for your kind compassion!

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.

James ******* is fantastic. He quickly identified several issues in our home using advanced equipment and visual inspection. He explained the process of the crawlspace encapsulation and showed us photos so that we understood exactly what is beneath our home. He has worked very well with the contractor from ****, Wayne, who is also excellent. The two of them have agreed on several things, and will work together to try to save our subfloor we were previously told had to be ripped out. We have very scary issues with our house (mold, sagging beams from a dishwasher leak and the foundation shifting due to this). James has drawn a diagram of the house as far as he can for now. Wayne from **** is doing the same. Our HVAC must be ripped out before James can evaluate the rest of our house, but he was able to show us where we have crawlspace and where it is slab. We highly recommend this very knowledgeable and professional technician. We trust him and are grateful he and the other contractor are able to work so well together to try to help us during one of the worst nightmares of our lives. Their calm mannerisms are helping us not panic, and we know they could have padded the bill and ripped out the sub floor. Not wanting to do this shows us even more so that we can trust James to make the best decision to help us. He got down in our crawlspace that is very short in freezing weather and took photos of everything. He is dedicated and he really cares.

Vince and Evan came out and did a very thorough inspection. We appreciated their professionalism and patience with our many questions. The inspection required removing a small portion of dry wall and insulation. They made sure everything was completely cleaned up afterwards. Good guys!

How it works

Straightforward and simple process

Schedule Inspection Icon
Schedule an inspection

Upon arrival, our Inspector will introduce themselves and chat with you about the problems you’re experiencing. Based on the information you provide them, they’ll then create a plan of action to examine your home inside and out.

Quote icon
Receive a detailed repair plan and quote

Once the inspection is complete, the Inspector will sit with you and present their findings. And because we provide same-day estimates, you’ll have all the cost and financing information you need to make a decision right away.

Schedule icon
Get the work done when you’re ready

When you’re ready to move forward with repairs, we’ll help you choose an installation date that works for your schedule, and notify our Installation team immediately of the upcoming work.
