"I waited a few months before posting my review to test the finished product. All I can say is incredible from start to finish to performance! Jordan and Jim are two of the most honest people I have ever met. The estimate process went so smoothly. No pressure, no overselling and scare tactics I had with other large companies. Jordan listened and offered real solutions. In fact they turned out to be over $15K less than the next bidder. Jim who also owns the company and his crew showed up on time. Worked their butts off and explained exactly what and why they were doing certain things.Just another level of transparency. They put in french drains, concrete walls to support the compromised brick ones in the basement. Then two new sump pumps one is a no power required backup, a pump to remove the washing machine water into the sewer line instead of the sump pump. The also wrapped the basement, crawlspace, installed a new crawlspace door. All in two days! The house is so much nicer and dryer. My AC does not run as often, the basement is dry. We used to get water after every rain storm. We have had several heavy downpours and not one single drop of water! I highly recommend them. Fair and honest people!"

"Great job on foundation repair. Very knowledgeable. Did such a great job on this I used them for repeat job. They did not cover/move the 3 pieces of furniture left in the room like William said they would. The furniture was covered in concrete dust afterwards—very frustrating to have to spend time cleaning something they could have been easily avoided. Other than that great work and customer service!"

"James, Brandon, and Devon were courteous, professional, responsive, worked hard, and did a good job. I had wall anchors installed, and helical piers to brace my leaning chimney and one down-slope corner of my house. Also had separate crew, Logan, Noah, and Bernard, follow with waterproofing. They were similarly courteous, professional, responsive, worked hard, and did a good job. 3 days for part one, one day for part two. Hauled away debris, including excavated dirt, and cleaned up reasonably. Total cost almost $20k; with lifetime transferable warranty, 3-year service plan, and 0% one-year financing."

"Vanguard's price was between two other waterproofing company. But I chose them because of the owner's honesty and professionalism. When I asked each company about competitors, Vanguard is the only company that refused to discuss the competitors. That speaks volumes. The work was clean and they explained each item on my property they were using. After the first hard rain, I checked the crawlspace and it was dry and cool. While the exterior water was running away from the home as it was drawn in their sketch for me. Finally, they offered a payment plan that was flexible. I had an overwhelming sense of peace when I selected Vanguard. That peace was confirmation that I had selected the right company. I have no regrets."

"Alberto and his team arrived ready to work. They graded the area, removed two trees, laid a brick border wall and mulch. They removed the debris and cleaned up when they finished. The space looks so much better than it did before. Thank you AB Landscaping!! I would definitely hire this company again!"

Masonry questions, answered by experts

In Athens, most masonry work is scheduled for fall or spring, when temperatures are moderate and humidity is lower. These conditions help mortar cure properly and reduce the risk of weather-related delays. Summer’s heat and frequent storms can compromise both worker safety and material quality, while winter’s cold can cause mortar to set improperly, making those seasons less ideal for masonry projects.

Helpful?

Maintaining masonry in Athens involves inspecting mortar joints for cracks after winter’s freeze-thaw cycles, as local clay soil can shift. Clean surfaces regularly to remove pollen and prevent moss growth, which thrives in humid conditions. Keep gutters clear to avoid water pooling near foundations. Sealing small cracks before summer rains and scheduling annual chimney or brickwork inspections help extend the life of your masonry.

Helpful?

In Athens, repair is usually more cost-effective than replacement when masonry damage is limited to surface cracks or minor mortar deterioration. Historic district guidelines often favor repair to preserve original brick or stone. However, if you encounter extensive water intrusion, structural instability, or widespread deterioration, replacement may be necessary. Always assess the extent of the damage and local preservation requirements before making a decision.

Helpful?

For masonry work in Athens, always check for underground utilities before digging, especially in established neighborhoods. Secure scaffolding is essential on clay soil, which can become slippery after rain. Workers should use protective gear, ensure proper ventilation in enclosed spaces, and be alert for lead paint or asbestos in older homes. Monitoring weather conditions helps prevent accidents during sudden storms or high humidity.

Helpful?

In Athens, hidden costs during masonry work often stem from permit requirements, especially in historic neighborhoods. Limited access in older areas may require special equipment or temporary fencing. Unstable clay soil can reveal foundation or drainage issues once work begins, leading to extra steps like soil stabilization. Seasonal humidity may also require moisture barriers, and fluctuating material availability can sometimes add to project timelines and expenses.
