We began a search for a reputable company to address our issues. We found JES. We were fortunate to have Charles Logan as the representative to assess our needs. Charles was very thorough in determining what needed to be done. Zachary Conner and Michael Kimberlin were assigned to perform the work. They were very conscientious in taking the steps that were needed and keeping us well informed along the way. Charles, Zachary, and Michael were very professional, very pleasant, and respectful of our property. Thank you for putting our minds at ease and in making our home feel safe.

Based on my experience, any proactive issues you can take to avoid any water issues is money well spent. I love how they work with you to stay in your budget but help you to track issues you may see in the future. In our situation, we have a gutter issue that showed up when we had the recent monsoon rain. We're going to fix our gutters (clean them out) but will track a second issue (we also have an issue with the volume of our 2nd floor gutter pours onto our garage roof as the 2nd floor and the garage roof gutter handle the same volume of water which means that if we max out the 2nd floor gutter, the garage roof gutter will be overflowing). They also pointed out that they can fix issues with our porch setting (a common issue given that NC builder often throw all their trash under the porch then bury the trash when they finish their construction). There is an easy fix for that issue. Also, they can fix an issue with our cement driveway slab tilting though it is more expensive given the size of the slab. We'll address this later.

I specifically asked the little guy that quoted the job about seeing the discoloration between their filler and the concrete already there and he responded that they did a really good job of matching the concrete and the discoloration would be minimal. Well its not so we decided we would paint the concrete to cover it. I am totally disappointed. You can see every crack they fixed. I thought $4700 was very reasonable to do the job we needed doing. Now I know why. They came in here and in 3 hours did a job that I thought would likely have taken 2 days. Like I said, the cracks are mostly fixed, with the exception of one that they are going to have to do over, and for that I am thankful, but Im not at all happy with the finished product simply because I feel it was grossly misrepresented. I definitely would not have spent that amount of money for this.

I've read online that they do excellent work, but all they wanted to talk about was their competitors. If I had a nickel for every time I heard about "the other guys," I could possibly afford their newest "absolute best price we can do." Not a fan.

We chose Basement Authority/GroundWorks because of their intellectual approach to fixing our problem with multiple repair options and competitive pricing. We appreciated the careful examination of our issue and thoughtful, low pressure explanation given by Jacob Frazier, the representative who came to our home and remained available throughout the repair. (Having multiple ways to fix our issue worked in our favor when the planned repair ran into a snag due to utility issues in our small yard; a change in method was required - no problem, quickly addressed, no delay in time to complete). The lifetime, transferrable warranty gave us peace of mind about protecting the value of our home. The capable crew (Kevic Watkins, James Bruce, Cole Murphy) sent to complete the project worked well together and were a joy to work with: professional, hardworking, knowledgeable, polite, communicated well, responsive to requests, and left a neat work area each day when they left. They went above and beyond, and we feel confident in the work they precisely and masterfully completed - almost a work of art. When they left, we examined their work and agreed they did a great job, and the stress of having a foundation issue had been replaced by relief.

Fast forward to now: They reached out saying that they wanted to come out to inspect their work from last year. Turned out it was just a sales pitch try to sell us more product. The sales person pointed out some shoddy work and said they would repair it under warranty. Now, crickets. We played phone tag for a while, but now they just won't reply. My issue is the dishonesty of claiming they wanted to "inspect their work" to make a sale, then run away when we ask them to make good.
