Fine. Came out right away and performed the work as soon as I accepted the proposal. The temporary materials did the trick. The temporary materials will be removed after the rainy season and permanent stabilization constructed.
Description of Work: Temporarily stabilize landslide by covering it and anchoring the cover so that it would not blow off. Also installed a comprehensive system of pipes routed water from all downspouts to the street. Most of the pipes are over 100 feet long.

I didn't hire them as it took them 4 weeks to get the estimate written, when the other 2 companies I had come out had their estimates to me within 3 business days. I didn't have the luxury of waiting 4 weeks to make my decision.

Chris Wilhite is very good at what he does which is to come up with a plan to fix something onetime. Ask for Chris when you can.
Description of Work: I have used ESR for soil evaluations from pool decks to building slabs being uneven to retaining walls falling. ESR always provides clear concise reports with an explanation as to what happened, why it happened and what needs to be done to properly remedy the situation.

Description of Work: Installed: trench drain in driveway and multiple surface drains throughout yard; trenched and installed piping to redirect storm water to excavated dry well; removed and replaced concrete driveway, walkway and porch step; removed and replaced front porch post. Very professional organization. All went seamless. I don't know how to rate the cost of the project...it is expensive work to do correctly. I believe they are competitively priced for high quality work. Try to do it for less money and you will get what you pay for.

The quote went well. They definitely sounded like they knew what they were doing. They spent some time answering my questions. He said that we could actually work with their bid. It took them some time to give me the quote.

The work took a long time, on the order of a couple of months. But, it went well, and as describe it would. We had to wait for about 1 year to get into the queue of work. ESR did a good job working with the family including my wife and kids, and were very personable. They also did some miscellaneous fix jobs which were not strictly part of the contract including repairing the fence, reinstalling the deck after the trenching, and also fixing some sprinklers. They subcontracted out the interior plaster work (for getting access to some of the walls/joists), and the electrical fuse install for the sump, and wiring. They did a great job.
Description of Work: We had two major projects done. First, was to have our home's floors leveled, and the rear of the house raised. Second was to install a drainage system, including French drains, that take water from downspouts and from around the house. It is a 3 bedroom 1 story house, and the work was mostly for cosmetic, and preventative reasons. It required channeling around the house. Installing jacks under the house. Installing some additional wood support beams, and installing drainage tubing and a sump pump.
