"After responding to my call on 10/7 about an apparent leak behind the fireplace that caused the blue stonework to 'weep' and setting up a time the next week to look at the problem, Woodford sent out a detailed and quot;what to expectand quot; document which was helpful and professionally done. When the rep showed up on the appointment date, he took photos of the fireplace and the chimney outside. He never checked the flashing/roof area around the chimney (probably since he didn't have a ladder [and never asked if I had one...I did] and was dressed for the office, not field work). He told me he figured it WAS just a flashing problem and that they'd come by in a day or two to fix it. I told him I needed an estimate first; that they couldn't assume they had the job. He said he'd/they'd get back to me the next day. I didn't hear from him/them for another couple of weeks when they called and said they were in the area and could do the job that afternoon. I told them that the work had already been done since I had not heard from them nor had gotten an estimate. Another person who has done work for me scoped out the problem and did the work. While Woodford seems to have their act together based on the statement of expectations they sent, they have to work on their salesforce's credibility. I called them originally because I had heard their radio commercials and they sounded very sincere and credible. They may be, but this was not an acceptable experience.

"Neverwet truly stands by their lifetime transferable warranty! I purchased my home last summer. The previous owners had installed the Neverwet basement system. This winter I experienced drainage issues in my front yard. I called Neverwet and spoke with Michele who was very pleasant and understanding. Kevin, one of the owners promptly came over to evaluate the situation. He determined the drain line from the sump pump needed to be extended and connected to the storm sewer. Kevin obtained the necessary permits from the Village and his crew (Jordan and Stirlling perform the work at no additional cost. I am very appreciative of the quick response and excellent customer service from start to finish of the project. I highly recommend NeverWet. They stand behind their warranty and do quality work. You will not be disappointed. Thank you NeverWet."

"I needed stucco repair work on an old chimney (and other spots). Grady was meticulous and thoughtful on what approaches and materials would work. Throughout the project they allocated sufficient time for each treatment to cure and inspected the work before proceeding to the next step. Grady started the project with no money down and only required ongoing payments for materials until the project was well underway. The final payment was due only after they did a final inspection. Total project cost was also below other bids."

I can't say enough good things about Midstate Basement Authorities.

 From my first experience with the office manager, my initial meeting with the president of the company, Eric Leach(who is a very hands on leader), to the last of the work being completed, everyone was professional, hard working, respectful, friendly, courteous and polite.

The first time Eric came to meet me he gave me an information packet about the company. I was very impressed by that and very much liked the fact that Midstate is a local company.

Before I agreed to have  the work done, Eric was very helpful in answering all of my questions. We communicated via phone and e mails. He was always very prompt in getting back to me with an answer to my questions.

The work took two days to complete. I found the men who were here to have all of the qualities that I stated above. They would keep me informed as to what was happening in the work process. They arrived on time, worked very hard and before they left (after putting in long hours) cleaned everything up. I am amazed at how clean the area where the small cement mixer had been is.

After the job was completed I had one small thing I wanted adjusted and the next day, after contacting Eric, it was taken care of.

Before this job was done, in my Bilco door area, every time it rained water came in through the walls and floors. Since the work was completed it has rained and the area is DRY!!!!

I would highly recommend this company to anyone with a wet basement!!

Foundation Repair questions, answered by experts

Foundation problems are costly to repair, but if you already own the home, you can either handle the issues or allow the property to (literally) sink into disrepair. The opposite is true when buying a home. Walk away if the seller refuses to lower the asking price once foundation issues are exposed or if they refuse to handle the problems before the completion of the sale.

Minor slab leaks normally take around three hours to access and fix, provided the leak is in an accessible location. However, a more extensive leak or a leak in a hard-to-reach location can take several days to fix, depending on the resulting damage. You might also want to consider the timeline for the build-back if the leak damages building materials like flooring or cabinets, which can take several weeks, including delivery of the materials.

The best solution to fix a foundation crack in your basement floor depends on the underlying cause. If you just have hairline cracks from settlements that are no longer growing, the best option is to seal them with a crack sealant. If the cracks continue to grow, one edge rises above the other, or there are signs that water is getting in through the crack, a professional repair will be necessary. Depending on the root cause, your professional may employ foundation underpinning or some other type of stabilization, seal the cracks, or install a drainage system.

Yes, engineers assess soil load-bearing capacity and provide construction guidelines.

Most single-story homes don't have foundations strong enough to support a second story, but they can be reinforced for an addition. A structural engineer can assess your foundation and what needs to be done to get it ready. They'll look at any cracks or unevenness in your current foundation and consider any special framing or beams your home needs, especially if it’s in a high-wind or hurricane area.

“To support a second story, many structural engineers will require that you install additional concrete piers in the crawlspace,” says Tschudi. “This involves hand excavating, pouring a large concrete footing—usually with specially coated rebar—and then building concrete piers right up to the girders.”
