This outfit is meticulous in their service delivery! Everything was handled so professionally from the outset. From the estimation process to the completion of the project I felt taken care of rather than taken advantage of. The crew did an amazing job on our sidewalk that had sunk in front of our house and made it safe for everyone.

Vanessa has been really easy and fun to work with!! She included everything on our wish list to the proposed floor plan which was surprising given our small space! She was very honest and so easy to communicate with. Even after she left I reached out to see if she could change something on our floor plan, and she had the changes sent to me within a few hours. Extremely impressive!!

Had OBA waterproof the basement previously. Reached out to Mark Overmyer concerning a crack I noticed outside in the foundation. He was quick to follow up and came by a couple days later to take measurements and assess. Really friendly and helpful experience. Thank you again Mark!

Matt M. did a walk around outside of our house for foundation cracks or problems before he inspected the crawlspace. My wife and I sat down with Matt and were very happy with his assessment to address our concerns. We set a date and time to begin work to install additional Jacpipes and beams. Iran H. and Chris M. called the night before to authorize an earlier start time. They arrived on time. They began working in the crawlspace and cleaned up the work area. Iran and Chris showed us pics and stated they will return to make the adjustments to the jacposts. Very courteous and professional. We recommend the company.

Our Inspector, Chelsa, came to our Dayton home the other day to check on some suspected foundation settling. I was extremely impressed with her knowledge, confidence and the way she went about the inspection. She walked the entire house with me, asking questions, making sure she had the layout and all adjacencies correct. After the walk-through, she set up her equipment and showed me specifically where the major problem was located and explained how it would be corrected. When she delivered her full report, it was done very professionally. When I asked her about her company and how she felt about working for them, she replied that she was proud to work for OBA and that she had a great crew working in Dayton. Chelsa also mentioned their parent company Groundworks, and the fact that they are employee owned. (Full disclosure: I'm a big Mike Rowe fan, and heard the Groundworks CEO on his podcast recently). All in all, a very, very good experience.

Very happy with my experience working with Ohio basement authority on addressing my homes foundation and water issues. Chase did a great job of assessing the issues and giving me options without making me feel like I was being sold something. When it came time to do the work Iran H, Chris M, and Ricky G did an awesome job. They were very professional throughout the process. I appreciated that they outlined and reviewed their work with me. I will definitely be contacting OBA if I have any issues in the future. Highly recommended!
