Supporting Crawl Space Foundation in Kingston, OH

A homeowner called us about foundation issues in the crawl space of her 126-year-old home. She noticed that the support beams were failing three years ago, but recently, a crack had developed in the living room wall. She wanted to put hardwood floors in above the crawl space, and the supports needed to be stabilized first. So, she called Ohio Basement Authority to take a look at the foundation. She also wanted us to look at her front walkway which was very sunken and cracked. Certified inspector, Jim Pierpoint, visited the home to preform a free inspection and estimate. He explained that IntelliJack supports could be used to hold up the floor above the crawl space. He added that they could also use supplemental steel beams for extra support. He noticed some dampness as well, so he suggested she at least have a Basement Air System installed to dry and filter the air. The concrete walkway was in such bad shape that Jim recommended tearing it up and replacing it.

Then, they installed the IntelliJack support system to stabilize floor joist or and beams. These are steel columns which are put in place to stabilize sagging floors. They were placed on engineered gravel fill which transfers the weight of the floor onto more solid ground. IntelliBrace I-Beams were also used horizontally to add further support to the floor above the crawl space. Finally, they removed the concrete walkway and replaced it was brand-new, level concrete. The homeowner is very happy with the results and can now have hardwood floors placed in the room above the crawl space without worry of sagging or failure.

I’ve seen Ohio Basement Authority’s television ads, and I chose to work with you because I looked at the reviews online and they seemed very favorable.

Francis was extremely patient and answered all our questions. He was very attentive to my parents who are the homeowners. Heather also was extremely friendly and courteous.

The installation crew – Ryan, Jamey, and Nate – were extremely hard-working. They were very courteous and took great are to be as neat as possible in their work and their cleanup. They were extremely patient in answering questions and explaining the process.

We are extremely pleased with the entire process – from the representative who initially came out, to the installation crew, to the administrative people we had contact with.

I’ve seen your commercials during the Channel 10 newscasts. Jacob did our inspection and was professional and friendly, and all of the crews surpassed our expectations. All three crews called an hour or so before arrival to tell us they were on the way, and showed up as stated. They all were courteous and told us what they would be doing, and continued to ask us if we had any questions. They all did as much as they could to keep things clean.

After hearing about Ohio Basement Authority on a TV commercial, I chose to work with the company because of the representatives’ promptness and the customer reviews. My inspector was awesome! He was courteous and very knowledgeable. And the crew was amazing! They would talk with me about what they were going to do and wanted to make sure I was 100% satisfied with everything they were doing. It was cleaner when they left than it was before they ever started the work.

I chose to work with Ohio Basement Authority because of the price and lifetime warranty.

The office staff was courteous, and the inspector I met with did an outstanding job with his presentation. He was very friendly and outgoing. I enjoyed our conversation.

The crew was on time, and even gave a courtesy call with a time frame they would be arriving. They were outstanding and very professional. The cleanup they did was great, and they left no mess.

I would recommend Ohio Basement Authority for all your waterproofing needs. From the office staff, representative, and the installation crew, everyone was very professional and helpful in answering all questions or concerns.

The office staff was extremely courteous, helpful and organized. The company representative I met with was excellent. He knew when I understood and he could move on.

Everyone was so very customer service oriented. I didn’t feel like I needed to get another quote.

The installation crew, including the foreman, was very customer friendly. They wanted satisfaction from me as a customer, and I am very satisfied.

The inspector did a good job, and I bought the system because I liked his solution to my problem with water in the basement.

The foreman and his crew were wonderful, very likeable people. They did a professional job and were very knowledgeable.
