basement waterproofing
 + -1 moreAl returned my call quickly, set-up the appointment and arrived on-time. After surveying my backyard, he was able to show me why I had a grading issue and not a drain tile issue. He even said that they COULD install 2 runs of drain tile, but it would be costly and might not solve my problems. I so appreciate a trustworthy contractor who is willing to tell you that you don't need to spend thousands of dollars with him when you would be better served elsewhere!!
Description of Work: Came to provide estimate for outdoor drain tile to eliminate water seeping into lower level walkout.

basement waterproofing
 + -1 moreMost of my dealings with the company were with Al. Great experience in a less than pleasant situation! Always showed up when scheduled, always kept me informed concerning the job and was very polite and pleasant to deal with! Great experience!
Description of Work: Replaced drainage tile system and removed all excess material from the job site. Removed flooring and repaired approximately 31 feet of drain tile, replaced floor (concrete) and used existing basket and pump. Dug up and fixed/respliced approximately 4-5 areas of discharge line/pipe that was cut. Had to come out approximately 3 months later to replace sump pump and install new discharge. My house is in an area that must have a lot of ground water. Sump pump runs regularly.

basement waterproofing
 + -1 moreCALLED ME AT WORK ON MONDAY TO SAY THEY WERE DONE; OFFERED TO MAKE RIGHT THE ITEMS I MENTIONED AND OFFERED TO DEDUCT $50.00 FROM THE BILL; I SAID $100, WHICH HE AGREED. WHEN ASKED, SAID THAT THERE WAS NO LIFETIME GUARANTEE, THAT WAS HIS COUSIN'S WEB SITE AND COMPANY AND THAT ANGIES LIST GOT IT WRONG FOR LINKING ME TO THAT AND HIS WAS A 5 YEAR GUARANTEE; SAID HE'D PUT A COPY IN THE MAIL. WHEN I CAME HOME FROM WORK, FENCE WAS STILL BENT, RAIN GAUGE BROKEN, ONLY ONE TACK REMOVED FROM WALL (2 MORE REMAIN), NUMEROUS MARKS ON THE WALL, BASEBOARD PIECES PUT BACK INTO PLACE BUT WITH GAPS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN PUTTIED, CONCRETE DUST ON EVERYTHING, EVEN COVERED ITEMS. WRITTEN GUARANTEE RECEIVED IN MAIL TODAY SAYS 5 YEAR GUARANTEE ON DRAINAGE SYSTEM BUT ONLY ONE YEAR ON SUMP PUMP. TOTAL DISRESPECT FOR MY PROPERTY. I WOULD'VE INSISTED ON $500 DEDUCT HAD I SEEN FINAL STATUS OF BASEMENT IN PERSON, BUT I GUESS THAT'S THE WAY SOME PEOPLE WORK.
Description of Work: JOINED ANGIE'S LIST SPECIFICALLY TO FIND A CONTRACTOR FOR THIS JOB; THIS COMPANY SHOWED ALL A'S. AD ALSO SAID LIFETIME GUARANTEE ON WATERPROOFING. RANDY CAME OUT WITHIN A FEW DAYS FOR ESTIMATE AND BID. JOB WAS BEGUN WITHIN THE 2-3 WEEKS HE SAID HE COULD START. SAID THEY WOULD COVER EVERYTHING UP; ALSO THEY'D BE DONE BY THE NEXT AFTERNOON(FRIDAY). FRIDAY AFTERNOON STATED WOULDN'T BE DONE UNTIL MONDAY BECAUSE MY CONCRETE WAS TOO HARD. FRIDAY EVENING I NOTICED ONLY HALF THE THINGS IN THE BASEMENT HAD BEEN COVERED AND THIN FLIMSY PLASTIC HAD BEEN USED TO COVER OTHER ITEMS(TACKED TO THE WALLS IN SOME SPOTS)., WHICH MOVED IF YOU WALKED BY; AFFORDED LITTLE PROTECTION. HAD TO START USING INHALER FOR ASTHMA WHILE ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN. MY FENCE WAS BENT WHERE THEIR TRUCK PULLED UP IN BACK, TWO AREAS OF BASEBOARDS BROKEN OFF, NUMEROUS MARKS IN AND ON THE WALLS. THERE WERE TIMES THE CONVERSATION AMONGST THE CREW BECAME LOUD AND SOUNDED LIKE IT COULD BE CONFRONTATIONAL; FRIGHTENING.

 + -1 moreMY INITIAL CONTACT WITH G. GARDNER CONCRETE WAS WHEN LORI GARDNER CAME OUT TO MY HOME TO HELP ME FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM OF THE WET BASEMENT AND TO GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE OF THE COST OF PLACING A DRAIN TILE SYSTEM. SHE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND PROMPT AND ALSO PROVIDED A LIST OF REFERENCES. THE WORK WAS DONE BY HER HUSBAND RANDY AND A CREW. I WAS NOT AT HOME WHEN THE WORK WAS DONE SO I LEFT A KEY FOR THE GUYS. UPON INSPECTION OF THE WORK DONE, MY FIRST IMPRESSION WAS HOW WELL THE MEN HAD CLEANED UP AFTER THEMSELVES. THE SYSTEM WAS INSTALLED PROFESSIONALLY ALONG WITH THE SUMP PUMP. I APPRECIATED THE FACT THAT I WAS NOT ASKED FOR MONEY UP FRONT ONLY A $100.00 DEPOSIT. THE FINAL PAYMENT WAS NOT REQUESTED UNTIL THE WORK WAS COMPLETED. A VERY GOOD FAMILY OWNED COMPANY.
Description of Work: INSTALLED APPROXIMATELY 39 LINEAL FEET OF A DRAIN TILE SYSTEM WITH SUMP PUMP AND BASKET. DUG OUT FOUR WINDOW WELLS AND PLACED EXTRA ROCK IN THE WINDOW WELLS.

concrete driveways
 + -1 morePRICE CAME IN A BIT LOWER THAN OTHER ESTIMATES, HOWEVER I'M NOT POSITIVE WE GOT THE SAME QUALITY AS WE MIGHT HAVE BY PAYING JUST A BIT MORE. I UNDERSTOOD FROM OUR ORIGINAL CONVERSATIONS THAT FOR A DRIVEWAY THEY WOULD DIG 5-6 INCHES AND POUR A LAYER OF CLASS-5 UNDERNEATH THE CONCRETE. IN FACT, THEY DUG JUST 3.5 INCHES AND POURED THE CONCRETE ON TOP OF THE DIRT. THEIR EXPLANATION WAS THAT THEY USE "STRONGER" (4500PSI) CONCRETE. WE ALSO UNDERSTOOD THERE WOULD BE REBAR THROUGHOUT, IN REALITY THEY JUST LAID 2 PIECES DOWN AND POURED OVER IT. IT LOOKS GREAT AND IS REALLY FLAT. THEY WERE VERY QUICK IN INSTALLING IT AND WERE POLITE, EFFICIENT AND RETURNED CALLS, BUT I'M JUST NOT SURE HOW LONG IT WILL REMAIN CRACK-FREE. ALSO-THEY INITIALLY MEASURED AND DUG THE AREA WRONG. I HAD TO GO OUT AND POINT OUT THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DUG OUT FIVE MORE FEET, WHICH THEY DID QUICKLY.
Description of Work: THEY ADDED AN 8 X 20-FOOT PARKING PAD NEXT TO EXISTING DRIVEWAY.
