Work crew arrived right on time, Chad and Josh were very friendly, went through the project with me, answered my questions and promptly went to work. They also went through the completed job with me. I am very happy with the results of their work.

I had my inspection today concerning a large crack in my garage floor. The inspector that came out today, Abraham Mukulwa, was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and thorough with his inspection of our garage. He put in the extra effort to make sure we were made aware of the issues that had caused our garage floor cracking and walked us through the options to remedy the problem. The professionalism, friendliness, and fair pricing of this company and its inspectors makes it stand out above others and I look forward to working with them to resolve our garages issues!

My foundation needs repairing. Nathan Brand was very professional and knowledgeable. He explained everything. It turned out that Innovative Basement Authority doesn't do the work that needs to be done. Nathan and I talked about options. He didn't rush through it and was very patient when I had questions.

It went really well. They worked fast and clean and did a great job. Aaron Seth and Dustyn did a great job. Aaron walked me through everything so I understood what was going on and kept in touch with me throughout the project if plans ever needed to change. If I hire them again, I want this crew to come back

The whole process was very professional and smooth. Everything was explained in detail up front and the work took less time than anticipated. Brandon, Rich, and Armstrong (our crew) were extremely friendly and professional and made sure we were 100% satisfied before they left. They were very thorough and went above and beyond in checking over previous problem areas with my wife.

We were amazed at how efficient, timely, and thorough the crew was from initial estimate visit to actual work completion. They were very willing to answer the questions we had and explain how the new inside drain tile system would function as well as radon mitigation. We experienced a horrific fall with 14 inches of rain that the existing system could not handle resulting in complete disruption of our family room and basement. As we are in the process of redoing those areas we anxiously await the spring thaw to see to the extent the new system handles the problem. We cannot say enough good things about how the process went and the work of the crew that was here. We are so thankful and only wish we had done this sooner.
