Best house leveling pros near Leland, IL

"The crew was courteous and efficient. They did a great job lifting the concrete in the drive up about two to three inches. The lifted both sides of the crack to level the crack. They ran into some troubles leveling the sidewalk as the limestone slurry started to lift the entire slab rather than just one side. The sidewalk is better than it was before they the began. They stopped and explained to why they stopped when it was evident that no more good progress could be made. They also lifted the front edge of the door stoop. There was a large cavity under this piece so it took a lot of material. They were able to lift this front edge about 2+ inches. They gave advice on what to use to seal the crack in the driveway once they leveled it. They do not seal the cracks themselves."

"Leveled driveway and sidewalk, repaired expansion joints and repaired gouge in driveway. Neighbors have commented how good it looks."

"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)"

"Acculevel did a super job for us! We have a house that was built in 1902 with a small crawl space. They fixed ALL our problems and did NOT have to tear up the floors. Our floors are level and stable. They were professional and neat. I would hire them for any basement or foundation issues you wont be sorry! 10 stars to the crew"

"We hired Brian to waterproof our basement last year but this year, we received a heavy rainstorm that created massive flooding around the area. Everything Brian waterproofed was bone dry but there was an exit door entry way that we never even considered waterproofing. The door held back most of the water but it managed to get in through the cracks of the door. 

I contacted multiple companies that night and the next morning, but Brian was the only one who responded back first thing in the morning. He agreed to meet us at our house to assess the problem, and we appreciated that he arrived quickly. After evaluating multiple options, Brian told us that we needed a sump pump and drain tile installed to permanently fix this problem. He initially scheduled us for the next Monday, but after understanding our urgency, he bumped us up to the next day. The workers arrived when he said they would, and the work was completed the same day in the afternoon. Thank you to Brian and his company for being so accommodating, being there when we needed him, and completing the work promptly.

*~update~*
After some heavy rains, we noticed that we were still getting some seepage in our "waterproofed" basement. After contacting Brian (for our lifetime warranty or whatever), he said he would come out. He then proceeded to cancel/make an excuse the next 3-4 appointments. Then he just stopped responding to emails/calls. We're very disappointed because we really liked Brian. Now we have to open the walls to see where the seepage is coming in and call someone else to seal them."

"Everything is great. Thanks to you and the service workers that help with our house. You guys are great!!!"

"Very expensive inspection/ cleaning for about 15 minutes total time spent at house."

"I selected this company because of the other postings on Angie's list.  Michael called back later the same day and apoligized for not calling back sooner.  He came out the next day, in the rain, to look at my roof and called me the next morning with the estimate and options.  He was very honest and up front abou the options and the cost.  Because my house is for sale, he made suggestions and discussed the pros and cons.  When he found out I had an open house scheduled the next day, he rearranged some things and called back to say he could do if later in the day and have everything ready for the open house.  And then he had to work in the rain to get it done.  Mike went above and beyond being when he and his crew helped my son load furniture into both my son's and his truck and he actually helped move some things to our new house because it was on his way home!  Michael is a very personable and caring person and I would recommend him to anyone looking for someone who is willing to go the extra mile and get things done professionally and timely.  This was a wonderful experience for me and Iam very pleased with the results.
