Fabian & Ryan of Bodine Construction redid our French drain that was 16 yrs old. They did an outstanding job – they were punctual, everything was done so neatly (see the photos), and they left the surrounding area in clean and perfect condition for new grass to start growing (where sod had previously been removed). Both employees were polite, extremely knowledgeable and very easy to work with! I’d highly recommend them to anyone needing drainage work and would hire them again!
Description of Work: Remove sod and topsoil on top of existing drainfield. Excavate, remove existing drain rock, filter fabric and drainpipe. Wash drain rock and place around drainpipe. Install new fabric, spread new topsoil and grass seed over renewed drainfield, and return surrounding work area to original condition.

Great experiences each time I've used this company. It's really, really hard to get good people to do quality work in Seattle, and Steve Bodine is one of those people. He employs great workers, treats them well and holds on to them for years. He personally is a genuinely decent and nice guy as well. He has years and years of experience and I would trust him with all my drainage needs (that's saying something in Seattle). Bodine also did a fantastic job with my concrete driveway and walkways. I first hired Bodine almost 3 years ago to redirect my downspouts to a new drain field in my back yard. His crew did an amazing job. I was so pleased, I hired them to do some concrete work in my basement. Again, excellent work. Based on that, I then hired them to pour a new concrete driveway and walkway. Again, an incredible job. They really care about getting it right. Bodine does virtually all of their work based on referrals... and they are busy. But if you have a problem, they will take care of it immediately and other times, you just have to be a little patient knowing they're busy taking care of someone else's problems. It works both ways. They were very patient with me when I had to change dates to have my driveway poured due to other work going on at my house. I also want to mention Jim Cuba and Manny, who worked on my most recent project and were terrific.

The project took 10 months to finish because they sat on the project, which only took approximately 4-5 days of actual work. Then there was a dispute about their bids and what was owed, and I issued a check for the amount I believe was owed under the bids. They sat on the check, blamed me for not issuing payment, never cashing the check, requesting a new check (old one had expired months before), and finally, a little over 3 years after I first contacted them, they cashed my final payment check. If you want prompt, timely work and resolution, this is not the company for you.
Description of Work: Water backed up into my basement, turns out there were roots in the sewer line. Bodine came out very quickly and took a look. They bid one thing, said they couldn't do that once they tried because of the sewer line set up, tried to bill me for the entire amount and do a second bid that included 1/2 the work from the first bid. There were numerous other bids, and some changes. They dug up my front yard and left a 4 foot tall, 20 foot long pile of dirt in my yard for months, with little responsiveness and kept pushing me back because they had other matters that were apparently more pressing. On the last bid with the work to wrap it up, I made a change and requested a new bid, which they provided. At the end of the work, they tried to charge me the last bid and the bid I had requested (which included all the work on the last bid too), even though the bid I requested clearly stated the last bid was not part of the project. Overall, it took them ten months to finish this small project.

Steve Bodine came to the house and did a thorough assessment of the work needed. We had water pooling in the yard in several locations because of downspouts not tied into the sewer system. Steve gave us both a verbal and detailed written estimate for the work, performed the work on time and budget, His team did a terrific job of making sure we had proper drainage and putting the yard back the way they found it. We were very happy with the service Steve and his team provided.

Bodine Construction prepared the most comprehensive and understandable bid we have every seen. We knew exactly what Bodine was going to do. (We've done several remodeling jobs in this and earlier homes; so we have a fair idea of what constitutes a good bid specification.) The Bodine crew was great: prompt, hard working, and personable. (If you were in a crawl space working for many days, could you say the same.) The crew took great care to minimize any damage or dirt coming into the house. This was really important, since they had to access the crawl space through a fairly long run from the garage, thru the laundry room, a hallway, the master bedroom, the master bath, and finally to the crawl space entrance in the master closet. The only nit was the 7th day of work when the crew only had four hours of work left. Bodine management called the crew away to handle an "emergency", and they really mystified us -- still does. Aside from that Bodine Construction and their employees provided excellent service at a very fair price, especially considering everything they had to do. I highly recommend this company to anyone who has a home with drainage issues.
Description of Work: We have a 10 year old home in an over 55 community. We were dismayed to find that the builder had failed to put any drainage in the crawl space. Bodine Construction spent over a week repairing this omission. They drove a large pipe out the back and under the foundation, put French drains all along the inside of the foundation and fed these to the main drainage pipe, added gravel, new heavy duty plastic covering throughout the crawlspace, and, in general, fixed the drainage problem forever. (When the Bodine crew breach the hole under the foundation, water poured out from the crawl space.)

Steve Bodine came twice when we needed him most: after our gutter down sport failed and flooded our basement. He was able to quickly diagnose and and gave us an excellent "tutorial" in how water damage works. He came the second time to inspect a moisture issue in the existing chimney. We did not wind up needing to use his actual construction services as the fixes he recommended were able to be addressed by out regular contractor and/or ourselves. We cannot tell you how much we appreciate not only his sound advice but his professional manner and "blessing" to have our own contractor do the work- so many companies in this day and age tell you that you need more repair or service then you do. Given this, if we ever have a more serious water leak issue, we will not hesitate to call. (Not that we want water damage!) Thank you, Steve! P.S. All your advice was spot-on and our basement has been dry ever since! P.S.S. We have indeed passed your name on to folks in need
Description of Work: Inspected water damage to basement den and chimney moisture issues and gave recommendations on how to fix both issue that we were able to do with out regular contractor (with Steve's blessing :-)

moved into a house with a broken driveway drainage. out of the 4 quotes i got, Steve's was the most detail and comprehensive. Steve got on a call with me over the weekend when i had follow up questions on the work description. he was patience and thorough in his explanation including follow up pictures of how the end state would look. the crew showed up timely and were professional. they cleaned up after the end of each day. reason for the B in punctuality was when the concrete finish was delayed i was not notified. I reached out to find out what the plan was and it took 2 days to figure out the delay and the plan. they finished the job one day late which is not a big deal for me but it is room for improvement. overall, I will recommend and I will use them again. happy with the project.

Bodine did a hard job professionally and perfectly. No more water or bad foundation. It was a complex job and included many surprises (neighbor's oil tank leaking onto my property) and holes and cracks in the foundation. They had to do a lot of digging and redigging and cutting concrete and digging under trees and paths and avoiding killing plants. They were expensive but did things right and perfectly. In the long run, they were the right choice.
Description of Work: Bodine waterproofed my basement, repaired the foundation of a 100+ yr old house, connected drains to the sewer.

They were on time professional and explained the problems well. Unfortunately for the company they were about 5000 dollars more expensive than the company I eventually went with. They did a nice job on the diagnosis part but were way to expensive compared to an alternate bidder who did a great job as well. So no work to rectify the problem was done.
Description of Work: Gave estimate for French drain and vapor barrier system in my crawl space on our 3800 square foot home to address a water seepage issue and diagnosed a partial blockage in our downspout drain system as a contributing factor. Bid was 17 K, we did not contract with this company. We did use Perma Dry out of Renton WA for about 12K and the project went well and has worked as advertised.

This is a pump that sits in a rain/run off catch basin on site for a multi-unit building. The person came out on two separate occasions. The first occasion the person tried to see if he could fix at no charge. A couple weeks later the pump started acting up again so I had him come out and do the replacement. He was very professional, patient, was definitely not there to make a quick buck. He really wanted to fix it the first time, free of charge. Completely trustworthy (his name was Jim Coolbaugh).

We selected the inside patching option and the workers arrived on time to start the work. I had removed the drywall to expose the area where the leak was and they helped expand the area to give better access. They made sure that any wall studs removed were not load bearing before moving them. They chiseled out the crack and noticed the area had been patched before. Since I am the original owner of the house, it means the area had been patched by the builder before I moved in. The work was being done on the third day of rain so it was easy to see where the leak was. As they patched the leak, the water would move up and leak at a higher spot. They continued to work upward until they reached the top of the crack. They let that layer of cement cure, then came back for a second layer in spots that were still showing dampness. The final time they returned they put a layer of cement and binder over the whole area to seal everything. I was impressed with their professionalism, attention to detail, and willingness to return to verify everything was complete. They were very careful to make sure everything was kept clean and any debris was cleaned before they left. I would recommend Bodine for any foundation repair.
Description of Work: Ken Harris did an inspection of our leaking foundation (rock pocket and cold joint) and gave us two options: inside patch or outside dig and drain installation. He tested the amount of water penetration and verified the house gutters were draining away from the house.

From the very beginning I had a great experience with this company. I received professional and prompt confirmations (voice and email) of the estimate appointment and prior to Steve's arrival received a courtesy call that he would be late by 10 min due to traffic. Steve spent a good deal of time evaluating my entire home, answered all my questions and gave his opinion about which services would be most beneficial and economical for our house. He advised against utilizing his services and recommended prioritizing other home repairs to address the problem. He seemed knowledgeable and experienced. Following the appointment, he promptly and courteously responded to follow up questions and emails. When it is time to have drain work done, we will definitely be calling Steve back and recommend him highly.

Steve arrived on time and spent more than 90 minutes assessing the problem. He went on the roof, recreated heavy rains with our house in the downspout and pointed out several areas of patch work that were apparently done incorrectly. After a thorough exterior and interior inspection he was able to show me exactly where the water was coming (even recreating it with a house) from and outlined a plan of attack for us in getting the situation under control. As it turns out this isn't a problem his company would remedy (as we need to replace a sliding glass door) and he still did not charge me a cent for his time. He was honest and professional and it was very refreshing.
Description of Work: Steve Bodine, with Bodine Construction, came out to our house to assess a spot of chronic (at least three years since we've been in the home but likely many many more) water damage that we have in an addition that was built on a slab.

Description of Work: Put camera in drain to assess problem of hole developing next to house. Because access inside the house was difficult do to built in shelving they had to put the camera down from a vent pipe on the roof. Dug 5 feet down to access drain. Found hole in bottom of pipe and replaced that section adding two access points so if problems happen in the future they can easily check the pipe under the house as well as the outward flow.
