Eric Reeder came to my home on the agreed upon date and time. He was patient and extremely knowledgeable about my basement water issue. He listened and took my personal situation into consideration while answering my questions. He made me totally comfortable with the entire experience.

I was super tired of my leaky basement and decided to do something about it. I looked into Basement Authority because I was seeing commercials and ads all over the place. I read reviews and watched multiple videos of the work they did. I contacted them through the website for an estimate. They sent Mike Cornecelli to do my estimate. Mike was very open and honest about what I needed and what he could do to help me. I can imagine there is a more knowledgeable person out there because he did a very thorough inspection and took pics and measurements. He made a plan on his laptop and showed me exactly what was going to happen and scheduled my appointment for installation. I needed wall supports, a gutter system and vapor barrier to fix the issues going on. My original date of install was moved up 3 weeks, which I am really grateful for. I had good communication throughout the whole process and the men worked every day until it was completed. I have zero complaints and highly recommend everyone use Basement Authority to fix your basement issues. I have learned so much about why leaks happen and how to correct them. Every man on the job was extremely polite and quick to answer any questions I had. They also offer a lifetime guarantee for the life of the home and yearly inspections to ensure everything is working properly. Contact Mike C and your problems will be fixed correctly and quickly. Well done guys!!! I'm more than thrilled with the work and the outcome from beginning to end!!!!

Working with Richard from Groundwork’s was truly such a blessing. From day one, he went above and beyond to make sure we felt heard, understood, and completely confident in the process. His knowledge is unmatched — no matter what question or concern we had, he answered it thoroughly and patiently, never making us feel rushed or overlooked. What meant the most to us was how intentional he was about staying in contact. He kept us updated every step of the way and made sure we always knew what was happening, which brought so much comfort and reassurance during the project. Richard’s dedication, honesty, and genuine care for his work and his clients truly set him apart. We are beyond grateful for the experience and would recommend Groundwork’s without hesitation.

Finally a crew that troubleshooter the problem quickly and accurately. Mr Davis took his time and explained my options on how to resolve this situation and with his assistant, Mr Nida, came up with a solution while others simply missed it time after time. Also, he called to confirm this morning. I am so pleased with both of these fine young men. They are true professionals and Ground Works/Basement Authority are lucky to have them on their team.
