Recent Foundation Repair Reviews in Albany
- RJM ContractingRyan was outstanding. He was quick, efficient and very easy to communicate with. He answered any questions I had and the work he did was top notch. My new floor looks great. I would definitely recommend RJM to others.
- All Dry BasementHaving to go through water problems in a basement is stressful but I am so glad I went with this company. Every person I interacted with was competent and professional. Larry was my first point of contact and he was incredibly knowledgeable and contacted me regularly to check in. I had scheduled multiple quotes but Larry sold me instantly because of his knowledgeable and straightforward communication. Todd, the owner, was so kind and you can tell how thorough he is about the work he does. He took the time to explain things to me and even catch things outside their job scope to make me aware of. He was incredibly fair with the pricing of the job. Nick and Dave were the two I interacted with the most because they did a majority of the labor. They were the best. They were respectful and knowledgeable. They took a lot of time to keep me updated and offer guidance for the long term care of my home. Having them working in my home never felt inconvenient. I could not have been more pleased with them or their work. I would highly recommend this company and the team they have assembled. Thank you for saving my home
- Staats MasonryWe had two cracks in our foundation. One crack was much more severe than the other. For the mason contractors to properly fix the inside and outside of the cracked foundation they had to take out an old concrete patio slab. They fixed the foundation cracks and put in a new slab, filled in three basement windows, replaced two basement windows, installed two window wells, installed drainage pipe for gutter run off, and added fill around the foundation to make positive grade. Serena and Bo kept us in the loop every day to tell us what work was being performed for each day. We will definitely be using Staats Masonry again for any of our other future concrete jobs
- Falletta MasonryNeeded to have these things fixed to sell our home. They did the job. Price seemed a little steep.
- Bennett Contracting IncThe carpenters were on time and professional. We had several different workers because of the type of work performed. We were always kept informed. We highly recommend this company.
- Bennett Contracting IncThe work went well. The team was punctual, and professional. The quality of the workmanship was high.
- Staats MasonryI was impressed from the start with the owners knowledge, energy and professionalism. They do great work and are very respectful to your property when the project was complete a individual wouldn't have known they were there. Very impressed we would definitely contract with them again.
- Staats MasonryEasy to communicate with, kept me updated on their progress. Everything was done well, as far as I can tell. The basement has remained dry since their work, and our walls are looking good.
- EARTH SAFE ENVIRONMENTALThe owner responded immediately to our request for a bid on remediating a mold issue in our basement, and while preparing that bid mentioned that his firm could also resolve our bulging foundation problem. Out of the three contractors who bid on our mold remediation needs, he was the only one who invested the money to have actual samples of the mold tested by an independent laboratory. When his bid was substantially less than the other contractors, he shared the results of the testing with us and was able to show us why his proposed solution was both better and less expensive than what the other firms were proposing. We shared both the test results and his proposed scope of work with the inspector who originally identified our mold issue, and the inspector assured up that the proposed solution would properly address our problem. Once we had accepted his bid, the work was performed quickly and he did an excellent job of cleaning up after the job. His finished work was inspected by the firm that first identified the problem, and they were impressed by the quality of the job that Earth Safe had done. Earth Safe's proposed solution for dealing with our bulging foundation wall utilized a bracing system that is relative new on the market, and he was the only bidder who suggested using it. Again we checked with the inspetion firm that had identified the problem, and they agreed it was an excellent solution to our problem,. It took about a week to order the bracing that was needed, but once it arrived Earth Safe installed it immediately. Once again they did an excellent job of cleaning up. Earth Safe's solution cost less than half of the next lowest bid, and it was clearly the least disruptive approach to addressing our problems. With both solutions they gave us superior service at an extremely reasonable price. They set their schedule to accommodate ours, and did the work quickly (but thoroughly). This is a family owned and operated business, and they take obvious pride in the quality of their workmanship. They gave us superior solutions at a lower cost than any of the other bidders, and were very pleasant to work with. I can't recommend them highly enough. They clearly deserved the excellent rating that they have on Angie's lis
- Excellent Exterior and Deck Company, Inc.Joe and his crew showed up on time and demoed our oversized 2 car garage and removed 2 dumpsters of debris. They returned the next day to remove the foundation and slab, witch required another dumpster. They also brought in multiple loads of fill, topsoil, and decorative stone to landscape the yard. They also laid 1500 square feet of sod and built us a new storage shed. We are very happy with all of the work completed and plan to use Excellent Exteriors for future projects

"100% professional right from the first contact! System designerworked (literally) for hours, photographing and measuring the work area then gave a clear & detailed presentation of the project. Austin Putnam's work crew arrived on day scheduled and on time (after calling to say they were on the way), worked diligently but not quietly (jackhammers DO make noise!), explained what they were doing and returned two days later to test the system. Cleaned the work area better than they received it and even put a small amount of cement in the entryway when there was a significant depression . "It was a trip hazard", he observed. It was a pleasure having them around and would definitely recommend them. I deliberately waited to submit this review until I had experienced a significant rain event, and everything was fine. Even heard a soft noise...the sump pump quietly doing its job.

"We have used the services of 518 Remodel on two separate occasions. Their service and work have always been outstanding. In the fall of 2017 they added 8 feet to our garage and then built and outfitted a mudroom/ laundry room for us. This was an extensive project which required construction, excavation, paving, electrical, plumbing, painting, concrete and drywall work. All this work was completed to the highest standards. We again, hired this company in March 2021, to do some attic work and to retile 2 bathrooms. Here again we were fully satisfied and impressed with the jobs that were done for us.

"Just wanted to express my gratitude to George Ludwig and all his hard working folks at Northern Enterprises! My aunt was away from her home in Granville NY because she was helping care for my parents who both had medical issues in Virginia. Well the furnace went out, and the pipes burst and this resulted in water damage. I was helping her out with the insurance claim because she was busy with my folks. I was so lucky to find Northern Enterprises online. Not only was George Ludwig very responsive, he really helped handle the insurance claim too. We could not come back to NY to deal with any of this in person and it was just as Covid-19 was starting to be a concern in the states. George kept in touch with me by em-mail and text. He sent us any documents that we needed to sign, he sent photos of the work as things were progressing. He even waited to receive the final payment for the work he did until after we got the final payment from the insurance company. Not only did he do the work we asked, he did it with excellence! He went over and above anything that we expected. The house has been restored beautifully. And we never felt like we were at a disadvantage. There were no hidden expenses or unexpected expenses either. George made sure everything went well. He is a man of integrity who you can really trust. This whole thing started in January 2020- and George had it all squared away by early March. THANK YOU GEORGE.

"We had Keith build our screened in porch several years ago, and we were very happy with the porch and his work. I called Keith for an estmate on this bath remodel. He came on time, took a lot of notes, gave suggestions, etc. His estimate was reasonable (similar to one of the other estimates).
