"David came from to my home in Kentucky 2 hours away to conduct a inspection and estimate for waterproofing my basement. David was ontime for the predetermined appointment and was completely professional in his inspection while being personable and informative. His explanation of the services to be completed as well as the associated costs answered all questions I had. This young man was open and honest about the entire process and represented the company and himself in the highest possible way. Iâ d do business with David and AFS again."
"Frontier Basement Systems (Joelton, TN) was really fantastic to work with! The job had to be rescheduled multiple times due to my concern about the excessive rain causing the ingress/egress area in my yard to be too soft for the weight of the work truck, but Logan in the Production Dept. was extremely accommodating. Eric F. arrived promptly and was extremely courteous. He was thorough, making sure he had all the voids filled, and cleaned up well when the job was completed. I couldn’t be happier with the service provided by Frontier Basement Systems!"
