Foundation Repair
I’m a 70 year old Senior. I had sagging at the end of my hall, in my 3-BR ranch home. I got five other quotes, none of which suggests a problem with my foyer or kitchen. They sent out some 20 something young man -that clearly did not know what he was doing to complete my main beam replacement project. I mentioned to David (the 20 something) and his assistant IMMEDIATELY, that my kitchen cabinets had pulled away from the wall and the foyer was tilting. Several times. He assured me that he would run the beam right up under the kitchen between the kitchen and the foyer, to the garage door —to correct it! I had an intense disagreement with him when he tried to leave and did not make any attempt to correct the damage. The damage they had caused. I used my burial money to correct this sagging in the hall-and they left me with a huge problem with my foyer and kitchen that WASN’T THERE BEFORE, that they caused, & knew they caused. Indiana foundation, now Groundworks, sent Blake to my house under the guise of completing my first adjustment to the main beam, and as I had instructed them, to formulate their repair project based on a certified Home Inspection Specialist that I had hired to let me know what, specifically, Ind Found. should do to correct the serious problem they created. They promised to schedule the repair work at that time, but have ghosted to me ever since coming to see the damage they caused and formulate the repair. I have not been able to get in contact with them since; I’ve left numerous v-mails and texts. They have no integrity towards my project and nor will they have ANY integrity towards yours.

I usually keep matters like this private, but after weeks of being ignored, I feel I have no choice. On July 26th, I was forced off the road by a driver in an Indiana Foundation Company vehicle (US DOT #1387693). The driver swerved into my lane, causing me to hit a curb and damage my car. I spoke with Pat Diehl, General Manager, who told me to email my information so their insurance could follow up. Despite multiple emails and phone calls, I’ve received no response at all. If this is how Indiana Foundation Company handles situations caused by their employees, it makes me question how they run their business and how they treat their customers. Accountability and communication should be the bare minimum. All I’ve asked for is a response. Jeffrey C.

Re: Indiana Foundation Services problems; Be aware that they did not finish the job at my house as they claimed. Because I cannot get into my crawl space, I wasn't able to check the work done last Sept. They were to pull old drains, retrench and completely place new drains (tiles), also add a couple jacks and 2 new sump pumps. Late this past winter, I noticed a light on in part of my crawl space through the floor where the furnace drain goes through (not seen from the crawl space door due to a foundation wall). When they came out I also mentioned that I heard one sump pump working but never heard the other one. After checking, he said there was water in the crawl space near my garage (this was the only place water had been seen PRIOR to the work being done). I kept waiting and calling and IN Foundation kept saying they were waiting on a report from this guy. They finally sent out someone else. He found that not only had about 43 feet of drains never been put in, but the second sump pump had never had electric hooked up. Later I found the electrician had only been told about one sump pump from IN Foundation. I also have found that since they turned out the light in the crawlspace, the first sump pump no longer seems to be working! They are supposed to all come out this month to complete the $19k worth or work that was supposed to have been done and I have asked for them to include an engineer to be sure the work is done and completed correctly. There should have been someone who should have been checking the work done. I sent Groundworks a letter and never heard from them. Not feeling very confident about the work yet to be done and am questioning whether I even needed those jacks. Trust lost.

Concrete Pouring and Repair
From the initial quote by Jon to the work completed by Nick and Mike, my experience with Indiana Foundation Service has been easy, accommodating, and top notch. Everything was done as discussed in an efficient manner. I am very happy with this company and would highly recommend IFS.

Andrew P, Dakota B, and Kyle M worked on adding a new drainage system to our basement. They were polite, friendly, and very professional. They did an absolutely AMAZING job!!! Job site was cleaned when they left and they even helped carry out some extra trash I had (not part of the job - but they were happy to help). I highly recommend this crew!!!

Basement Waterproofing
While no one wants to have to deal with foundation issues, Indiana Foundation Service made the process as painless as possible. From our free estimate to the end of the work, we couldn't be happier and feel better about the integrity of our home. CJ and Brandon were our assigned crew to install our gutter drain, sump pumps and dehumidifier. They kept us informed throughout the process and treated our home with the same respect that they would their own. They were very professional, knowledgeable and paid attention to every detail. While I hope to never have to use their services in the future, I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who has issues with their home's foundation.

Basement Waterproofing
Had an $8k drain installed in our basement. Within a week it was failing and water was still penetrating their system. Was told by install team that it was due to concrete not being cured. Had drywall reinstalled out of pocket. Now 90 days later the system is continuing to fail. They do not want to cover the expense to replace drywall in order to correct the failed install. If a system has failed twice within 90 days, it is an issue with the install. The customer should not have to pay for them to fix their mistake.

Ricky Christie did our annual inspection and was professional and thorough. He found an issue in a support beam and made us aware and wasn't pushy and demanding we sign something right now to get it fixed. We are waiting on the estimate and will decide from there. Indiana Foundation does a quality job.

Concrete Pouring and Repair
I am disappointed as a customer, veteran and law enforcement for the service received, the real lack of followup, the business practices and cost. A company should ensure the customer is happy over profits, the customer should not have a worker state to them the time of the job that an additional 1300 would be best and then have them put a paper in your face stating everything is fine when at that time you don’t know for sure.

Foundation Repair
The dehumidifier placed in the crawl space was installed in the incorrect place according to IN Foundations' own diagram prompting me to research further. The price charged is more than 3X a comparable unit. After installation the company has been non-responsive after 9 calls and 2 written correspondence complaints. I would never use this company again. I am a reasonable consumer who will go through the proper channels for a correction, but this has been a total nightmare and complete ripoff. Lack of response and the overcharging proves this company does not care about the consumer once they have been paid.
Response from Indiana Foundation Service
"Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We forwarded your issues to management and they informed us that the GM will be doing a site visit on 5/22 to review the placement of the Dehumidifier, should it be needed we will install a condensation pump at no cost. If you have any further concerns, please feel free to reach back out to our team."

Concrete Leveling
On 2-22-2023 Doug Caister with Indiana Foundation services came to my home and gave me a quote on level a section of concrete in my back yard. After looking at it he told me that it would be no problem to level and secure the patio. I sign the contract and on February 27th they came to do the work. I first slab that the gentleman work on is now worse than it was when he started the second and third sections are not a whole late better then when he started, and he even caused a small new crack in a part of the concrete he was working on. Overall, it was a huge waste of money. I told a lady in their office that I was very disappointed, and she told me that she would have someone from management call me to discuss. This was on February 27th to this day March 5th I still have not heard from anyone.

Good crew workers, but absolutely terrible communication from the office staff and supervisors! The guy who did the initial inspection and estimate didn’t describe the layout of our crawlspace to the crew correctly, so our 1-day job couldn’t be finished on Day 1 (and because the on-site crew couldn’t reach any supervisors to get guidance on how to proceed with a new plan since the original plan wasn’t right). So a 1-day job that started on July 20th didn’t get done until August 1st because they kept saying the crew was coming on a certain date/time but nobody would show up, so I’d contact the office again and they’d say the crew was coming but nobody would show up, and when the crew did finally get back here they had been told that we had removed a bush that was in the exact spot they needed to put a drain BUT NOBODY HAD MENTIONED REMOVING A BUSH TO US! And, once again, the crew couldn’t get in contact with the supervisor! When he did finally talk to a supervisor they asked him if we wanted to have the drain set up in a different way that would mean the job got done that same day BUT their warranty would be invalid!! UM NO are you serious?! Absolutely asinine way to do business, I am shocked that they still get customers at all! So yeah, nobody from the office had called after the first appointment went awry to explain the situation and what they would be doing to fix it, nobody called when we had complained of the lack of communication to explain what was going on, but you can be SURE they billed me immediately after the job was finally done! No delays or waiting around to hear from their billing department haha. We will take our business elsewhere next time we need work like this done, for sure.

Work done was great. The vontracotrs doing the work were professional, prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. 1the low rating is for the front end the sales rep misled me as to the scope of the work that would be done, Then the back end of customer service trying to get a call returned and questions answered never happened. trying to find a contact person from online near impossible. The leadership team of the company are invisible and can not be reached to escalate problems or situations. Bottom line quality work but I was sold one thing and actually delivered thing was not the same. Verify everything.

Josh Solomon and Noah Salisbury were the technicians who worked on my project. They were prompt, hard workers who took the time to protect my home, answer my questions and made sure I understood how the system would work. I would have them perform work in my home again.
