My wife and I had Richard Z., Martin H., and Sabastian M. Out to our house to fix a broken floor joist and another with a crack in it. They were polite, worked quickly, and aside from the noise of their tools you’d barely know they were there. The work appears to be done well and the overall experience was great! Highly recommend.

Andy was extremely professional and helped me understand how and why water was entering my basement. He provided a wealth of information and conducted a thorough inspection. This was, by far, the most informative inspection I've ever experienced.

Nate Pierce & Noah W were both very kind. They cleaned up after themselves. Explained the process. Took their time doing the job. We're very friendly and added to the job. There were a few things that needed to be moved due to the extra job, and they helped me move the items! I would highly recommend them to my friends. I felt guilty because they anticipated the job to take 1.5 hrs and due to our extreme level of problems and added work, it ended up taking them 5 hours! Top notch gentlemen to work with and represent a company! Round of applause to you both!

Our driveway and porch presented a number of challenges after many years of water eroding the ground underneath. We are so grateful that we found Groundwork. Their method of concrete lifting was exactly what our situation required. The best part, though, was the people we dealt with throughout the process. Jessica was so easy to work with in scheduling and got us in far earlier than we thought possible. David came out to do the damage assessment and explained beautifully what to expect. The cost was actually lower than we anticipated! We were so fortunate to have Noah and Matt as the team that did the work. They knew exactly what needed to be done and how to do it! At this point we are awaiting dry weather so they can return to grind and fill in cracks. No hesitation in recommending this group.

Stephen C, Matt F and Isaiah F worked on my crawlspace insulation. They were very fast, did an excellent job and after finishing they left the work site clean and with minimal impact. They communicated well with me and they came off as pretty respectful and polite lads. I am left very satisfied with their work. 50 people could now sleep there. Five stars.
