Description of Work: Eventually I didn't use their services due to my scheduling problem. There were two separate jobs, somewhat atypical and he understood them instantly and offered excellent improvements. Too bad thing did not work out.

He was professional, knowledgeable and helpful. After our phone call I had a clear idea of what my next steps should be.
Description of Work: Did not do any work (yet) because my foundation problem needs specific diagnosis from a structural engineer and/or drainage specialist. However, Adam answered phone and talked to me for 5+ minutes and gave me useful information.

Adam seemed like a nice guy and I might have had a decent experience with him if he hadn't recommended bringing Jim Thompson of Jet Engineering along for the structural engineering part. He said they had worked well together on other projects, so it sounded like a good idea. It was actually a horrible idea, as Jim Thompson was flakey about appointments and then took important papers of mine and refused to even return my emails or phone calls (for the last 18 months), much less return the papers. This meant I never got an estimate from either the engineer or from Adam. I think Adam is a poor judge of character and I wouldn't trust him to recommend anyone for any kind of job at all. Since most construction work involves teams of workers, this is a big problem.
Description of Work: Recommended a structural engineer and visited the house along with the engineer to look at the problem and come up with an estimate for solving it.

Response from AJ Peet Construction
I'm sorry your experience with Jim didn't work out. How was I to know? A simple call back to me, would have been helpful, as I may have been able to help move things along. I never knew of your situation. I just figured you were moving forward in another direction or getting another opinion. I will contact him about getting your papers back. Sorry for the referral that didn't work out

I am the reviewer that gave them a bad review. Adam was able to respond quickly after the review. The contract with his company was to bolt the foundation to the house and replace the cellar door. He arrived promptly and began to test the foundation. It turned out that our foundation is too "crumbly". His honest assessment, which I appreciated, was that the bolting would not secure our house to the foundation. He did not feel right about doing that work if in case of an earthquake the bolts would not keep the house in place. He replaced the cellar door. and hauled the old one. I was satisfied with his work.
Description of Work: He replaced our cellar door.

I contacted Adam after reading his good reviews here. I contacted him by phone twice. After the second voice message, he returned my call and we set up an appointment. I took time off my work to meet him at my house and he did not show up. I left him another voice message and he agreed to meet me at my house two days later. This time he showed up on time. Adam was professional and friendly. He told me that he would send me a quote that night. After inquiring about it, he emailed a reasonable quote. I responded right away and told him that we wanted to hire him for the job. I asked him if he could begin the job two weeks later and did not hear from him again. I would rather he told me that he couldn't do the job from the beginning. I wasted my time and still haven't heard from him.
Description of Work: He gave us an estimate of the cost of bolting our house to its foundation.

Description of Work: Mr. Peet was promptly on time and looked under the house to see if the foundation was secured by bolts. He advised that is was bolted down and no foundation work was required at this time. He did not charge for the "estimate". His attitude was professional and polite, I highly recommend.

We opted to not have the work done.
Description of Work: Adam came out to look at the state of our foundation. The home is 50 years old and was neglected badly. He confirmed that due to soil conditions the house has basically cracked in half and would required a completely new foundation. Adam also explained the process of getting approvals and the additional costs involved in lifting the house. This process would take quite some time and the expense would be prohibitive. We appreciated his candor and agreed this may be too much for secondary home. I would recommend him to anyone who needs an opinion on foundation repair.

Description of Work: Adam came by to give me an estimate for possible foundation repair. We went over my concerns and he assured me the concerns I had could be monitored over time and reassessed in the future. He returned my calls, met with me in a timely fashion and was very professional.

He and his team did a great job, were on time, communicative as to what they were doing, tried to keep the dust controlled and in general were a pleasure to work with. We'd hire them again without hesitation!

Description of Work: Absolutely nothing!! AJ Peet did not even contact me. I tried 3 times to schedule an appointment and never received a call or an email. They are totally unprofessional and I will tell other people to stay away from them. I am also going to write to Yelp and tell them about my experience with them. Will you post this review on your website?

Description of Work: We thought we had a serious foundation problem along with floor issues. Mr. Peet did an overall investigation and assured us that things were still solid and not as bad as we thought. He did not think the issues warranted spending any money on them at this time. He could have said otherwise and performed unneeded work that we would have gladly paid.

Adam and his team we’re great. Adam offered us several different way’s we could approach our foundation problems. Rather than spending a million dollars up front he gave us what was important that needed or should happen now and things that were still important but that could be done later. We like that. We had the money to do Something! Just not the money to do Everything at once. Rather than the All or nothing approached Adam worked with us. We look forward to working with him again in the Spring. His team was on time and quick. They got in and got out. Thanks Adam!

Adam was great. He came out to the house and looked at the foundation work we needed done. His estimate was much lower than some engineers who looked at it. When he came out to do the work, he found some other issues that needed fixing. He didn't charge us any extra even though there was a fair amount of extra work. He and his crew were able to finish everything in one day and did a great job. I'd definitely recommend him to anyone!
Description of Work: Anchored the mudsills to the foundation, installed some blocking, built a wall to support a beam that was unsupported, put plywood over exposed cripple walls (I think? I may have gotten the names mixed up on that part... I am not a contractor...).

The contractor showed up on time for all appointments during the bidding process. The bids were a day or two later than promised and not as thoroughly detailed as those received from others. This coupled with the 20% premium led me to use another contractor.
Description of Work: I found AJ Peet on Angie's List when looking for a foundation repair contractor. I did not select this contractor because his price was about 20% higher than another bid and it seemed like he was too busy to start the job per my timing requirements. However, he did have direct experience in foundation extraction and replacement which is what I needed.

Adam, was very responsive from the scheduling a quote to answering all of my questions. His follow throughout was strong. He showed up on time for the free quote and for making repairs. They finished on time and I couldn't even tell they had been here except for the great outcome. There were no surprises in the work or the quote. Adam also did something very rare in today's world. He thanked me for giving him the work. I would absolutely work with him again and recommend him to others. In fact I already have.
