Mr Scott Jones was wonderfully personable, knowledgeable about his product/service, punctual, etc. But after other estimates and expert professional advice, I did not need 3 sides of my home mudjacked/tiered/ anchored. I would have spent $12K and the problem still would not have been remedied. My foundation is solid. The problem lied elsewhere. Was he professional in his demeanor? Absolutely. Was he professional in his assessment of the actual work my home needed and his recommendation? I'd say not.

Description of Work: They were contracted to install wall anchors on a basement wall that was crack and slightly shifted. Mr. Jones was my first contact as he came out and explained what he though the best solution was to fix the problem. He also gave me a cost for the project (4000.00) and how long it would take (couple of days. |Once we made the decision I was then instructed to schedule with the office and did and dealt with Mary Ann. She schedule a couple of days the first week of August and then changed to just one Friday as they felt the work good be completed in a day. |They then called me a couple of days prior to the scheduled Friday and told me that they would not be able to make it that day but would come on the next day Saturday, if that was all right with me. I agreed as that actually worked better for me. |They were there when they said on Saturday and completed the work as contracted.

Description of Work: Chimney pulled away from the house, leaving a 4-5 inch gap from top to near bottom. Wall Anchors' salesman committed to 2 major deliverables: 1) that the chimney would be STABILIZED and never move again, and 2) that the chimney would be completely pushed back against the house. | |Wall Anchors was unable to push the chimney back against the house, still leaving a gap. Again, even though their representative committed to fully eliminating the gap, and promising that this was (and I quote) "a walk in the park, "a 2 on a 1-10 scale", and "we'll stick with this until it's back against the house". The gap is still there, and LOOKS HORRIBLE. | |Wall Anchors assured us that the chimney is stabilized and won't fall down, and we have a lifetime warranty on that. So, in the end they did 50% of the work they committed to. We negotiated a settlement of the bill.

Response from WALL ANCHORS OF NORTHERN OHIO, INC.
Wall Anchors has been providing helical piers and helical underpinning since 1988, 30 years. The contract has always stated that the work performed is guaranteed against further movement of the foundation for the life of the structure. The main direction of the work is stated to stabilize the vertical settlement. As a secondary feature of the product, we will attempt to lift the structure as much as structural integrity will allow. Neither the website, salesperson, installers or management promises that any foundation will go back to its original position. If so, it would be stated in the contract, and it is not. Typically, the structure we are working on does lift back into place to a large degree. Again, there is no guarantee it will do so. In Mr. Tesars case it did not go fully back into place. It went back to a small degree but not nearly as far as needed. I am disappointed in the remarks left by Mr. [Member Name Removed] about the work we performed at his home. We worked tirelessly on his project. We installed the piers as required then lifted the structure to refusal. The chimney would not go back any further and was just lifting straight up. Lifting on the outside edge of the footing should rotate the chimney back. Possibly there was too much debris, wood, mortar etc. between the chimney and wood frame of the house. We let the piers down numerous times to clean the debris that could be reached, to no avail. We made any adjustment as we could. We also left pressure on the piers with our hydraulics for days hoping the pressure would pop the chimney back. We spent over a week, off and on for this project. Mr. [Member Name Removed] was involved all along. He was updated continually and we entertained all suggestions he had. We finally had to give him some options: we offered to leave the job open and he could get an engineer to calculate what could be done to make the piers work. We offered to pull both piers out, back-fill the job, fill in all holes, crack and crevices and put the property back to the state we found it. There would be no cost involved to him. We would call it a loss. The third option was to leave the piers in place. He would be financially liable for just one pier. He would still have the life of the structure guarantee on the job. We tried very hard to satisfy Mr. [Member Name Removed]. Mr. [Member Name Removed] opted to keep the piering in place with the guarantee. He would have to make the cosmetic adjustment to the look of the chimney. Placing a molding around the outside edge of the brick would dress it up and make the chimney look presentable. I believe we went way beyond our call of duty to make the best of a bad situation. Again, I am truly disappointed. We should have insisted that we just walk away. My conscience is clear that we did the right thing, the chimney is no longer a safety issue.

Scott Jones initially responed to mu inquuaries and came out to give me an estimate and describe the work that would be completed. Scott was very professional and knowledgable. I had about four estimates and Wall Anchors was the most reasonable. What impressed me the most was the description of the job - since Wall Anchors was my first estimate, I used it to gage the others. There were companies that I thin over priced the job and wanted to do more than what was necessary to fix the problem. After getting the bid, I was contacted by RandyCutlip and a date was set to start work. Access to the back yard was provided by removing a section of fence and going through my neighbors yard. They took care of removing the fence and ensured that my neighbors yard was restored each day and looked as good if not better than when they started work. My neighbor was also impressed with their professionalism. They worked my house in the late afternoon and showed up each day on time. All of the workers were very professional and Randy is a very skilled brick layer - it was fun watching him and his crew work. The drains were replaced outside the house and the trench was backfilled with gravel with about a six to 10 inch layer of dirt on top. I have great before and after pictures and would be willing to share them with anyone looking to get this type of work done. I couldn't recommend them more highly - they did a great job at a reasonable price..
Description of Work: Approximately 37 feet of my basement block wall was severely cracked and bowed. There was evidence that the wall moved off the bedplate several inches and would need replacement. The first step was to excavate the area on the outside of the house. This was done on a Saturday to ensure that the area was ready for the building inspector to look at it before replacement began. The job was done 10 feet at a time to preserve my brick facing. The area was placed on jackes with supports installed to keep the brick facing intact. This was fol;lowed by demplition of the old block wall and rebuilding with new block. Rebar was installed at specified intervals and the cavities filled with mortar. The area was cleaned each day after work was completed. When the full wall was done (including replacement of a block window), they put a finish coat of mortar on the wall to give it a finished smooth look.

They were very prompt and it was a little bit more expensive than we could afford, but they did an excellent job. They gave an excellent estimate and it was really nice. I've had an excellent experience with them. The gentleman was very nice. I have no complaints whatsoever. I liked that he knew his business and he knew what I needed or how I have to go about it. I just couldn't afford it. I think they were a little bit pricey.

I liked the professionalism of the salesperson and the gentleman that actually did the work. They were very responsive and punctual. I spent a lot of money on the job - I did not compare prices actually. I guess the quality of their work is good; I have no idea, but I guess time will tell if it is going to do what it is supposed to do. I would use them again in the future if necessary.

The guy screwed up two times. He was supposed to come out and inspect the work because we were having problems, then he called me at the very end of the day to cancel the appointment for 8am the next day. I was not happy about that. Then when we did make the appointment again he wrote me down for a whole other day. They finally came out yesterday, they dug it all up and said it looked like the anchors were in place. They said it looked like we had horizontal shifting and the warranty covers vertical. I said this was the exact same crack that had happened before. Luckily I had pictures before to prove that I had the crack. They ended up doing nothing, they covered it up with dirt and said to watch it. I am not exactly pleased that they guy was coming across like it was my word against his and it wasn't under warranty, luckily for me I had the pictures to prove. Even though my initial impression was good when they originally did the work, now I don't trust them. Also, they were a half hour late.
Description of Work: Wall Anchors of Northern Ohio previously put in anchors in for me but then I had an issue with them.

Had them come out to give an estimate and they were very easy to talk to, and knowledgeable. Their price was within the mean, as this is an "unregulated" industry, so the prices were all over the board.. We had 17 different contractors come out to give estimates! 17! It was ridiculous and it was very stressful how to know who to pick, and it seemed that nobody had the same solution to the problem. Some people said put in 2 wall anchors, 3, 4, 5 and up to 7! This company originally quoted me 3, but I had them put in 5 to be safe. I went with them because they were one of the few that offered a lifetime warranty and transferrable to another owner once. That sealed the deal for me. The workers were hard working, awesome, and cleaned up after their work. They were here for 5 days straight and had to dig up practically the entire side of my house and put it all back. Very very clean and neat and punctual. I would highly recommend them and I was not on Angies's list when I hired them,so it was a very difficult process to know who to hire. Here's to save someone else the stress and agony I experienced. I highly recommend this company.

They were industrious, hardworking, and they kept the dust to a minimum to accommodate my health problem. They were also knowledgeable, and the people who came to work were terrific. The person who came out to give an estimate was terrific also- he knew what he was doing, and they did what he said they would do.
