Get matched with top house leveling pros in Haledon, NJ

"Very professional!! Great service and amazing customer service/care. 100% rehire for more house work I need!!"

"We hired them to build a retaining wall to level out our sloped backyard and install a new patio. They recommended natural bluestone bordered by classic bricks, and wow?what a difference! The stonework is flawless, perfectly level, and handles heavy rain with zero drainage issues. It looks like a high-end resort back here now. Worth every penny."

"All the workers that came to our house have all been just wonderful. They've been polite, confident and they're very good."

"I have worked with Uprise twice now and both times they did great work. The first house they found and repaired a leak, and in the second house I had them install a new roof. I would not hesitate to call them again for future needs."

"My concrete stairs completely fell apart. Top professional construction was there the next day with an estimate and started work a couple of days later. They did a great job!"

"I just bought this house and I really wanted to renovate the whole thing because honestly it looked very bad and everything was detoriating. AB1 came out and spent about 2 hours discussing different kinds of projects and recommending what we should do and breaking down different prices. I decided to go with the stone siding. It was definitely more expensive than regular vinyl, but boy was it worth it. My house looks brand new and went from looking like the worst house on the street to the best! Thank you for really taking your time and getting me through this process! Highly recommend."

"We were very happy with the sales rep who recommended what needed to be done and in fact was done. The installers were polite, kept the entry to our basement clean and did excellent work. It was a great experience."

"Tim is an artist! He came to spec the job same day we contacted him. He answered evey call from that day on. He showed up every time on time he said he would. He works so hard non stop evey day he was here. He was patient and answered every question I had and did everything I asked . Gave me some suggestions and I took them because...well he was right! And he's just that good! I only every went out to look out of excitement , never to supervise his work. He did dry stack stone on my foundation , new stair treads and a fancy accent on the landing( his idea that I went with ) it came out better then I could have imagined. My little house looks like the houses I admire on the internet! To say I'm pleased and would recommend...is an understatement!"

"My wife and I were having trouble in our basement, as we were getting a mysterious puddle down there every so often, and we couldn't figure out where it was coming from. We'd had vents replaced, sump pumps replaced, and then had two other basement companies come in to look at the issue. Now, we have french drains down there already, but they were installed before we bought the property. Both of the first two basement companies told us our drainage system was either all wrong or installed improperly, and that we'd have to install a whole new system along one wall for $4k (said the first company) or along all four walls for $14k (said the second company). That didn't seem right to me, particularly as we had a drainage system, but both companies seemed to care more about their sales pitch than addressing the problem.
At that point, I signed up for Angie's List (moral of the story, thank you AL) and called American A-1 with my hunch. Jeff came over the next day and was first and foremost a super friendly, extremely knowledgable guy.First, he took a look at our current drainage system and said something the other two hadn't — that, while he would have done one or two things differently, our french drains looked to be installed perfectly fine. So he started poking around other places as I explained what the other two companies had said. He wasn't only shocked at the price, but mortified that somebody would tell us to rip up our basement like that. As a former building inspector, he seemed to really great knowledge set in general (he even gave me some free tips as he was looking around), and eventually came to the conclusion that he thought it was a plumbing issue, most likely something to do with the boilers. Jeff said he wished he could do more, but he wasn't a trained plumber, but said that would be his next phone call. He wished me all the best and left his card.
Fast forward a few weeks, and it turns out Jeff was exactly right: a plumber came out and confirmed it was one of the boiler's pressure release systems going off intermittently, and projecting in such a way that it ended up as a puddle far away from it. No basement drain installation necessary.
Seriously, I cannot say enough nice things about these guys. Not only did they save us money, but they saved us from having our basement ripped up and not even having the issue resolved. Jeff didn't make me sit down and listen to a half-hour to an hour sales pitch about this, that, and the other thing — he came and did what I wanted the first two companies to do: try and figure out the problem and not assume they knew what it was.
While I can't speak to their actual work, I can say that I would recommend American A-1 in a heartbeat. I think it's easy to be cynical about service providers these days — and as my first two basement companies goes to show, you should still be — which is why when you find one of the truly good ones, it's such a revelation. American A-1 truly is one of the good ones. Don't hesitate to call them."

"Ned, had mudded my foundation beautifully, so I hired him to replace my front & back stairs and install railings."
