Troy Wilson came out to my house to look at something in my basement that I have had issues with since the basement system was put in. The guy who came and did my inspection 2 years ago told me this was not covered under the life time warranty they provide. I thought that was ridiculous. But I had to live with it. Irritated with them now, Troy came out this year and said "yeah I'm going to fix that for you. It's covered under the warranty." FANTASTIC!!!!! I am thankful for Troy coming out and being professional and no bullshit crap. No excuses just fixed it. Super happy with him. Thanks again.

Mark came out and took a look at our foundation. What we thought was a major foundation issue turned out not to be. He was completely up front and honest about it all. Can’t say enough good things about his honesty and ethics. Definitely would recommend them.

Our inspector James was thorough and knowledgeable. Obviously an expert as he answered all our questions and showed video of the process. He understood our needs and took time to explain everything we asked he was efficient and super nice! We felt he was honest and wasn’t pushy! If he was pushy we would not have trusted his advice! We have made the appointment for our repairs! Thank you James!

This was a major repair job and we cannot say enough good things about guys who completed the work. Brian K, Ryan R, Curtis H, and Karter J were all professional, kind, knowledgeable, and very hard working. My husband owned a home remodel business and would’ve loved to have any of these guys working for him. 100% would recommend.

I highly recommend Chase! He went above and beyond with his inspection and made sure I understood not only the solutions available to me but even taught me about how foundations of homes are built – which I didn’t know too much about considering my house was built in the late 1800s. He was able to help me with finding a solution to my concerns and I trust that my house will be in good hands.

Chase was AMAZING. He was very professional and friendly. He very patiently answered our many, many questions. He was also very gracious when our dog took one of his shoes and we had to track it down. Luckily there was no damage. We are looking forward to working with him.

I had Jacob come out for an inspection after I purchased this property. He was friendly easy-going and just the type of sales person that I needed for this only negative side to all this is I wish that the 10% was a little pushed out further versus the same day, I think that’s kind of the downside of everything. However, his approach to fixing the situation measuring the walls figuring out everything was gonna flow through was great. I had zero issues directly with him. He was awesome great sales understanding and wasnt pushing things down my throat and somebody like me coming from sales. I don’t like the pushy sales man cause I was that.he didn’t really have an issue building great Rapport with me at all. And he was very truthful. He explained things very simply and easily although I did my resrarch to find out what my issues were so i had an idea of how things would go today, and was able to have a better idea/ plan for myself; he explained this is what we need to get done this is how our company does it. This is how we’re gonna do it. Also, I think what helped is he understood the scope of the work being a former foreman himself. I appreciate him coming out and this guy needs a raise or some more commission great dude great attitude, and great integrity, even better not a pushy sales man. Thank you jacob and thank you for being a man of integerity and honesty i appreciate it very, very much.

Rob Jennings and his crew were super per nice and professional in the worst of conditions. They left our house clean while in and out dozens of times and tracking through snow mud and ice. Looking forward to not worrying about sumo and drainage line issues.
