Best house leveling pros near Hometown, IL

"This was our second time working with Permeseal. Had a great experience the first time was they remediated four foundation cracks. This time, stabilized concrete steps that had pulled away from house, amd leveled out a sidewalk.. They explained the remediation effort and went to work. Very conscientious and true craftsmen."

"Freaking Amazing! These guys busted their buns! Itâ s impossible to know whatâ s under the cement that needs raising. Turns out a family of 4 could have lived in the cavern below our sinking patio. They didnâ t charge a nickel more for the extra time or materials! They also figured out how and why. The yard was graded towards the house in one spot. Because of that issue my sump pump would start running just before the rain starts and run on and off until about a day after. They leveled the cement and I followed their instructions to regrade the yard. Several years later, cement is still level and my sump pump almost never runs. My neighbors noticed that that their pumps run when they never ran before."

"Stoyan was extremely professional and honest. He called before arriving, arrived on time and looked around. He had me describe what I had observed, inspected my ejection well and my walls and foundation. He did state that he could not see everything because the basement was finished but from what he could see, it was not an interior unit problem, but rather an exterior (HOA) issue. I asked him if he could chat with a friend on the phone who was trying to help me. Stoyan patiently discussed the entire situation with my friend and discussed options etc. There was absolutely NO ATTEMPT to oversell me or sell me something that I did not need. I asked him if he would mind looking at my neighbor's basement while he was there. He said he would. We went over and Stoyan examined my neighbors's basement. He basically said the same thing, that as far as this general seepage goes, it was an outside drainage issue. He patiently explained to both of us, how this should all work for our four unit building. I cannot say enough positive things. I highly recommend this company."

"Good work in general; our basement no longer sees water for over 3 years now, which is the most important thing. But there were some real issues: The biggest issue is that USW did not adhere to local electrical codes, and did not arrange for a final inspection of the project. So we didn't find out that it wasn't to code until years later, and now it's a big hassle and minor cost to fix and get the permits. Ask your local gov yourself what you need to do for permits and inspections; don't rely on USW! USW said they would seal any foundation cracks found along the way; they didn't do this until I bugged the warranty dept about it (but they did do it eventually). USW sent someone out for the "annual checkup"... over 2 years after the install. It's a good thing they (eventually) did, because they discovered the backup battery wasn't charging. Now I know to check this stuff better myself. Prices also vary wildly and are kind of negotiable (I'd give more detail but I'm out of space)"

"RealSeal installed new drainage tiles and a sump pump in my approx. 950 sq. ft. basement. They also installed a tough waterproof membrane around that periphery. In order to do this, they had to cut out the bottom 2-4 ft of the drywall and studs in 2 rooms down there, and dispose of the debris. The ONLY reason I'm not giving them 100% on quality is that, while replacing the cement and rebuilding the slab for my laundry tub, they did not make the slab level, which has resulted in adjustments that are difficult to make, as my laundry tub is extremely heavy and difficult to nudge. Other than the problem with the slab, the workers were professional in their manner, and it appears that RealSeal has equipped them with very good gear and conditions; they seemed to actually enjoy their work. Jose, the foreman, was extremely helpful in answering all of my questions. And Dan, the salesman, was also great in answering my many, many questions. The video on RealSeal's website was a good resource for me in envisioning the project. I would definitely recommend RealSeal to others."

"It went great! They put in a support team. They jacked up the house and put in a new foundation. They were very professional and very orderly."

"I needed the front steps of my home replaced, and I found Marcel. He came and gave me an estimate almost immediately after I contacted him. The price of the estimate was good. The steps look great."

"EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT! I cannot tell you how pleased my husband and I are with the quality of the work from Garcias Repairs. Our problem was a lot of loose vinyl siding on our two-story home that we were fearful of blowing away. Dario Garcia and Jose were very thorough in their assessment of our project, making certain that the wood underneath the siding was in good condition before the repair, which it was. It was evident from this assessment that they took pride in what they do. They then gave us a fair estimate for the repair. Their attention to detail left our home in better condition, and we could be happier. They did a beautiful job. Because we were so happy with the work they did on our house, we hired them to do some vinyl repair on my sister's home. Results again, were excellent. It is refreshing to come across contractors that are so HONEST. My husband and I recommend GARCIA'S REPAIRS highly."

"Their team managed my property from finding renters to keeping the upkeep of the property. They kept me well informed through out from finding renters to what they needed to do to improved the property. They were very organized with any work they did on my place to meet the expectations of the renter. And they found several solid renters. They are a great resource for helping you manage your property."

"Great communication from getting the estimate all the way through the completion of the work. For every appointment, I would get a phone call in advance with a very reasonable time window. They did a very good job lifting one side of the garage floor without any cracks in the slab. Cleaned up everything at the end and the price was very good."
