Not all negative but really trend that way. So we rate on other platforms generally...saw the 1-star/1-review and had to put this here this time to help the rating. Having said that Verrette was great for us. We needed a quote for basement supports on two walls due to bowing. $1000 to $3000 less than others. Didnt try to sell us on the other two walls. Lined up timely date since we needed to close soon. Did great job. Buyer asked weird questions about some legacy supports asked by overzealous inspector. They came out no charge, analyzed and gave letterhead explanation of why these were not part of house support...mis-understood by buyers inspector. Not part of their original work but no charge....and also done very timely. So straight with us...and good work.

**Verette Construction Review**…read more On Thursday, May 7, 2026, I met with Verette Construction at my home to obtain a quote for drain tile installation. The initial meeting went well, so on July 7, 2026, at 8:08 a.m., I called to request a quote for some additional work. An appointment was scheduled for July 9, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. When no one arrived, I called the office at 11:28 a.m. and was told there had been an emergency call and that no one would be coming out that day. While emergencies happen, no one contacted me to let me know that no one would be showing up. We rescheduled for Tuesday, July 14, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. Unfortunately, the second appointment went much the same way. At 3:11 p.m., after no one had arrived, I called the office and was told he was likely on his way from another job site. By 3:38 p.m., I called again because no one had shown up, and the office said they would check on his whereabouts. At 3:41 p.m., I received a return call informing me that he "thought it was tomorrow." At that point, I decided to move forward with another contractor. What disappointed me most wasn't that appointments had to be rescheduled or that someone was running late--it was the complete lack of communication. A phone call or text to let me know about the delay or scheduling issue would have gone a long way and would have demonstrated respect for my time. On a positive note, Verette Construction does offer a veteran discount. Unfortunately, that doesn't mean much if they can't consistently show up for scheduled appointments or communicate with their customers. I've decided to try Badger Basement Systems instead and hope the experience is more professional.

Here's the rub: we had another quote two days before Jayme from a nationally franchised waterproofing company who wanted $20K to "solve the problem."

We had to have major work done, A few years ago when it rained so hard the water rushed toward our house and cracked our foundation. Our front porch cracked away from the house and water came in like a hose. The entire front of our house was compromised. Dale gave us options and came up with a great solution to push the walls straight and seal the basement. We had other companies quote the job and their solutions seemed strange. They wanted to dig a trench inside the house for the rain to go. They did not seem to want to fix the problem but put a band aid on it. Basement Specialist's even found a problem after they started with the way water flowed toward our house. They dug a new sump pump in the problem area and our basement is dry and we finally can replace the ripped up flooring and get back to normal. Thanks Basement Specialists!!!!!!!
