My experience with Groundworks was great. The team was very knowledgeable as well as punctual, from start to finish. Jared Garnes inspected piers that were put in at my home.

Tim Pratt was wonderful. He came to our house in Elkins, WV after calling to let us know he was coming. He was very friendly, professional, and kind. We did not feel pressured, and he considered several estimates. I highly recommend that you give him a raise in his pay. You do not want to loose him.

Highly recommend Groundworks. The installers, David Weaver, Brett Mullins, and Casey Pettigrew, were professional, courteous to my tenants, and respectful of my property. They even finished ahead of schedule! Excellent communication by the team as they worked on my basement, keeping me informed on status and timing. Price is more than fair; you get what you pay for. I wanted to hire a professional to do this the right way, and that’s what I got at Groundworks. I will definitely hire Groundworks again to fully encapsulate my basement later this year. Thanks!!

The technician, Nick, did the annual maintenance for 206 Washington Street. He was awesome! Not only was he courteous, kind, knowledgeable about what he was doing, he was able to save me money on a mishap that was about to happen. He observed a bulge in my washer machine line that was about to pop and create a major catastrophe. He was able to resolve the issue until I can get it addressed. Nick was polite and explained what he had done and allowed me to ask questions as needed. I will certainly tell other individuals about your service and how dedicated your employees are about keeping the product maintained and keep the customer informed.
