If you are looking for a company to fix your basement needs I recommend Ohio Basement Authority. From start to finish I could tell this was a very well organized and professional company. I originally planned on 2 estimates because I figured this would be an expensive (probably over paid) issue with my basement. But when I got the estimate from John the price was much lower than I thought with no extra cost, just a simple price to fix my wall. I was pleased already and did not need a second estimate. The work was started soon after the estimate and the crew of Joe , Atilio and Grant were just as professional. They explained again the process of repair and answered all questions I had. They were polite, friendly and worked well together. The job was finished quickly and I am a very happy customer.

Great integrity and communication. Fair assessment of foundation status after thorough inspection. Took the time to educate on what constitutes cause for concern and not. Made a recommendation with a quote, no pressure sale.

The installation was quick, with limited demo to my finished basement. I had water seeping in under my baseboards and saturating the carpet during heavy rains. The gutter system will collect all that water and divert it to my sump pit. I was thrilled with the work done, and between demoing the drywall and frame to about a foot off the floor, to jackhammering the entire perimeter, to hauling in gravel, and installing the gutter and new window well drains, to finally topping it all off with a moisture barrier and some smooth new quikcrete, it only took a couple of days, and I couple not be happier with the end results.

Everything is on hold because our house is not level. They gave us a price and said it would level our home and it didn’t so they want more money to finish leveling.. waiting for them to come out and look at what is going on.

Excellent evaluation/accessment of problem. Jacob Thomas was very knowledgeable, professional, and polite! He was very patient in explaining the possible problem; offering possible solutions. Although problem was not in the scope of what company repaired, I would definitely hire them for future work, if needed.

I couldn't have been more pleased with service performed by the Ohio Basement Authority! It started with one of the best, most personable salesman I've ever encountered. The three-man crew that arrived on the day of the work were all friendly, pfofessional and quick to answer any questions I had. They were running only about 15 minutes late but gave me a phone call to let me know. That courtesy extended to the end of the job when they couldn't have left my house any cleaner. I would recommend this company to anyone!

I cannot say enough good things about the Basement Authority. From the estimate process done by Justin to the actual work this company was thoroughly professional. They even changed some of their start and stop time to allow our business to stay open while they were working. Thomas Mitchell Abe and Brian were a courteous hard working crew! Thanks also to Ben the team leader. Because of these individuals I will not hesitate to recommend this company to friends and associates.
