He was very easy to communicate with and provided a thorough inspection along with a cost breakdown. TJ and his team arrived to install beam to add more support to living room floor area. They were extremely professional from start to finish. They arrived on time and took the time to thoroughly explain everything before beginning the project. Throughout the process, TJ kept me informed and made sure I understood what was happening every step of the way. TJ and his crew worked carefully, professionally, and thoughtfully to ensure the project was completed without causing damage to our home. I truly appreciate the care, attention to detail, and professionalism TJ and his team put into the entire job. I would highly recommend Groundworks!

I spent approximately $30,000 with Groundworks, and I deeply regret hiring them…read more I called Groundworks for one reason: contractors working on my floors noticed a slope and told me the beams underneath my house needed to be stabilized before they could continue. Groundworks assessed my crawl space and recommended a system they represented would address the problem. I relied on their expertise. That is the ONLY reason I agreed to spend approximately $30,000. When the project was about 80% complete, Groundworks suddenly told me I needed to call a carpenter. They did not explain that there was significant dry rot underneath my home or that the condition of the wood needed to be addressed before the work they were performing. I learned that later, after hiring an independent home inspector. By then, Groundworks had already been working throughout the same crawl space installing stabilization and encapsulation. My inspector identified significant dry rot and explained that it needed to be addressed first. Had I known that before Groundworks performed approximately $30,000 worth of work, I would NEVER have moved forward with their recommended system before addressing the underlying damage. And here is the worst part: THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM WAS NOT FIXED. The slope remains and appears to have increased since their work was completed. I am now facing additional repairs and expenses, and some of Groundworks' work may have to be undone or worked around to properly repair the underlying damage. The encapsulation has also been problematic. It was supposed to help keep my crawl space dry, but it was not properly secured, leaving openings that allowed rodents into my crawl space. I also later learned that the dehumidification equipment installed did not cover the entire crawl space as I understood it was supposed to. Then there is the customer service. Once they had my money, getting meaningful help became incredibly difficult. I have contacted corporate and have gone more than a month without a meaningful response. If Chris is assigned to your project, based on my experience, I would be extremely cautious. My advice before hiring Groundworks: GET AN INDEPENDENT INSPECTION FIRST. Do not rely solely on the assessment of the company selling you the system. Get everything in writing and ask specifically whether anything underneath your home needs to be repaired before their system is installed. I trusted Groundworks to identify the problem and recommend a solution. Approximately $30,000 later, my original problem remains, the slope appears worse, I discovered significant dry rot that should have been addressed first, I am facing additional repairs, the encapsulation allowed rodent access, and corporate has been unresponsive. I would NEVER recommend Groundworks based on my experience. $30,000 spent. Original problem unresolved. More repairs ahead. That speaks for itself.

We are building a pool in our backyard, and needed a concrete contractor to pour a concrete decking all around the pool. After much deliberation and interviewing 5 different contractors, we hired Sierra's Concrete to do the concrete decking. They were the most responsive, had the best suggestions, and they had a large selection of photos of their previous work online. Their contracted work entailed: 1 - digging an 87 feet long, 6 feet deep French drain around the pool 2 - installing surface drains to collect rain water 3 - forming and pouring a roughly 1500 square feet deck according to our custom design Sierra's Concrete performed the work to perfection, ahead of schedule, and left the place cleaner than how they found it. It was a real pleasure to witness their performance. Their dedication, coordination, attention to detail and work ethic all shone during the 6 days that they spent here. I never witnessed any heated temper or frustration, the entire crew worked in perfect harmony in a relaxed but professional atmosphere. You could tell that they enjoyed working together and took great pride in their work. Cesar had excellent suggestions to improve on my design. I never had to ask him to do anything twice, and he was true to his word until the very end. His team worked relentlessly, barely ever taking breaks, moving from one task to the next without ever getting into each others' way. They left the site immaculate, even taking the time to pressure wash the driveway. They went above and beyond the call of duty at every step of the way. The end result of their combined effort exceeded our expectations. Cesar is a maestro, and he orchestrated everything with talent and brio. He and every member of his team are true artists. I would enthusiastically recommend Sierra's Concrete to anyone looking for quality drainage systems and beautiful concrete work. I could not have asked for anything better.
