"Had Betts Structural Engineering come and look at the foundation of a house we were in contract on. Josh came out and was professional and informative. He informed us the foundation was failing and explained what needed to be done. He throughly explained everything and told us how we could do it ourselves for much cheaper than a contractor could do it. In the end he saved us from a long and expensive process if we proceeded with the house."

"Positive: Professionalism, Punctuality, Quality, Responsiveness, Value I took multiple bids on my basement project across basement companies in Columbus. Mid state basement systems had the best and most fair pricing. They did not use any scare tactics and were upfront and honest. They were also the only company to use a laser level and show me the sag difference in my joists that I was experiencing. I hired mid-state basement systems to do crawl space support and repair on my load bearing wall in my basement. MY PROBLEM WAS UNIQUE AS LOAD BEARING WALLS NORMALLY DO NOT NEED TO BE REPAIRED LIKE THIS! At first, it was not level upon completion (BARELY 1/8 INCH OFF) in ONE spot and I let my sales rep Jiovanni know. the team came back out within 48 hrs and adjusted everything and let me take a look at it. They did a fantastic job. The installation crew even wiped down my floors for me after they were done! They were so polite, and respectful and made sure there was no damage to anything as they were moving steel beams to my basement ( my fridge was an object in the way to the basement door ) Do not let competitors make you question the validity of this business. they were fantastic. Rating of sales 5/5 Rating of the installation crew 5/5 Rating of management 5/5 Rating of mid-state as a company : 10/5 I do not believe I would have received this level of responsiveness of any of the competitors. I would choose mid-state basements for any basement project I had. Please use my review to know that mid-state basement systems will do the job the right way and how you need it to be done. In my experience, they offer the most fair pricing."

"We had an attached screened-in porch that was sinking.Acculevel came in and detailed every aspect of the repair project and then followed thru to the most minuet detail. Excellent work and very detail oriented. Friendly and cooperative service team that completed the work. This seemed like what was going to be a complicated job, using augered jacks, concrete removal, and replacing trex floor. ...In a nutshell, they made what seemed hard..very manageableand 100% solved.Excellent service, excellant price......Terry M."

Masonry questions, answered by experts

When undertaking masonry work in Athens, always wear protective gear such as gloves, safety glasses, and dust masks. Schedule work during mild, dry weather to reduce risks from slippery surfaces or heat stress. On sloped lots, ensure scaffolding is stable and use fall protection. Before digging for new patios or retaining walls, confirm the location of underground utilities. Extra care is needed with older homes due to potential lead paint exposure.

Helpful?

In Athens, masonry work is most commonly scheduled between late spring and early fall. This period offers consistently warm temperatures above 40°F, which is essential for proper mortar curing and to prevent freeze-thaw damage. Because Athens often experiences heavy spring and summer rains, contractors typically plan projects around extended dry spells to ensure optimal results and minimize weather-related delays.

Helpful?

In Athens, homeowners often underestimate the impact of local soil movement and drainage, leading to premature cracking or leaning walls. Starting masonry projects during wet or cold weather can cause poor mortar bonding. Using modern materials on historic homes may result in mismatched repairs. Skipping required permits for retaining walls or additions can halt projects. Consulting a local masonry expert familiar with Athens’ unique conditions helps avoid these issues.

Helpful?

In Athens, targeted masonry repairs like tuckpointing or patching are often more practical than full replacement, especially when addressing localized issues such as minor cracks or weathered mortar. However, if you see widespread structural problems—like bowing walls or significant brick displacement—replacement may be necessary. Athens’ climate and soil conditions make early intervention crucial to avoid more extensive and disruptive work later.

Helpful?

Homes in Athens are ideal for masonry work if you notice crumbling mortar, water stains on interior walls, or shifting bricks—especially in older or hillside properties. Athens’ clay-rich soil can cause foundation settling, making regular inspections important. If your chimney shows signs of spalling or your retaining walls lean, these are strong indicators that professional masonry services are needed to prevent further damage.
