Anthony went above and beyond to inspect my home and it's damages to provide a perfect solution. I haven't seen many people with so much attention to detail and it's hard to find someone with a solid work ethic such as his.
Description of Work: Anthony determined that I needed a number of leveling jacks to bring my home back together based on over 30 years of wear and tear due to damp conditions in my crawlspace.

Salesman came to our home to bid work to level the garage floor and lift and level the concrete leading to our front porch. I signed a contract and gave a deposit at that time. I had a second bid from another company, $1500 cheaper. As it turned out FRS had close to $1300 in charges that I did not need. The contract was vague, noting a product used, number of units, and a total price. Per the contract, I had 3 days to rescind. The second bid was 3 days later, so I was caught in the contract with money down. To their credit, they offered to match any price. I had the work done to comply with the contract. I was also afraid I would lose my deposit. Additionally, It appears that during the garage lift, the concrete was cracked and patched. I knew that to be a possibility only from reading the contract (not info from the salesman). However, I asked the crew if the floor had cracked, they said no, and had the nerve to take a $100 tip. I hope the work they did is what they say. I made multiple mistakes with this company. I write this to help the next guy make an educated purchase. DO NOT sign a contract immediately. Ask for a line by line description of the work to be done with a breakdown of the cost. Get a second or third bid.

well, the 1st team didn't do the job right. second tech gave me hope, with the third visit tech I felt better. he explained things better. i know this doesnt sound drastic to you, but 3 visits to stop the dripping sounds wrong to me. all within approximately a month. my yard won't be right for a couple years with the mounds from trenching. my insulation had to be removed due to water after the 1st visit. not happy.
