Arends & Sons

After backfilling the area they excavated, they CAVED our foundation wall. A second wall is bowing and cracking. The corner where they "repaired" the masonry leaks, and fountains of water have actually sprung from the wall in three places. Their attempt to fix the leaking wall entailed painting the wall, but months later, the paint won't dry because the block is so saturated with water. They broke the water main to our house while excavating & we had a moat of water leaking into the basement for a couple of days. Two doors won't close, cracks in our wall, MOLD in our basement. Somewhere along the line they let their contractor license expire, or lost it. The city has no record of any bonding/insurance/or contractor license on file (they did when they first worked for us). They didn't take out any permits. We invested over $15,000 in this project and havn't been able to get any meaningful efforts at resolving the damage, or taking responsibility (i.e. GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK). Very wishy-washy and evasive when you try to negotiate your way through problems. If something were to go wrong, they will pull a disappearing act. I have more.. I have a whole lot more to say, but DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY. Ever.
