Poor quality tile work. Mismatched granite sections. Just seemed like much was done to minimal grade and project management of subcontractors was poor. My opinion: Unfortunately, these complaints may be common with many builders in these days of minimal grade and interest in profit over product. There are probably worse builders than Greco but there certainly are far better. Overall not a good experience and will be costly for us to correct.

Water had frozen causing the burst. Called immediately hoping I could get someone out to look at it today, and I had never called for a plumber before. Joe answered and was very polite, gave me an estimate of time he could be out (same evening service!) and let me know there were two calls ahead of mine that he was servicing. Joe and his son arrived, looked at the situation, and explained how he'd have to proceed (open the wall, find the leak, etc.). They also gave me a ballpark figure of what it would cost to open the wall to examine things (under $200). Joe cut three holes (each about 8x8 inches) to locate the leak. This is important, because it meant that there would be just a very small wall patching job for me to do later on, rather than replacing an entire wall. There was no damage other than the holes cut, and he replaced the section of pipe very neatly and efficiently. I do some plumbing myself, so I know quality work when I see it. After the repair was done, and instructions on how long to leave the wall open to make sure everything dried out (he suggested I make a small opening at the bottom of the wall as well to assist the drying) Joe then showed me a tip about draining the pipe to winterize it -- there's a nut on the shutoff valve that is actually a drain nut. I never knew that! But a tip like that will come in handy. As he was leaving, Joe even showed interest in our dog, spending a few minutes to try and coax her to come over for some petting. My dog is scared of everything, but showed interest in Joe, so if the dog likes you, that's always a good sign! I would not hesitate to call Joe again...or to recommend him for your plumbing needs.

"I am not pleased with the service I received! They damaged my waterline and stated someone would be out to fix it. It's been 9 months and no one will return my calls nor have they come to fix what they damaged! They ruined my lawn and never came back to replace the soil they dug up! They ruined my basement floor and I had to replace my entire floor! They said they would be out to test the sump pump and drains that were installed, again, it's been 9 months and no one has followed up with me!

"had a terrible experience with Jaden from Kramer’s Contracting. He came out to give an estimate on home renovations and tried to charge nearly $150,000, with no clear breakdown of costs. When I told him I only wanted to focus on four specific rooms, he seemed to get cold feet and started dodging my calls. He kept promising to send the revised estimate “that night” — multiple times — but it never came. Days went by with no follow-up. This wasn’t my first bad experience — I met two other contractors from Angi before Jaden, and all three were sketchy, with some even appearing intoxicated. But Kramer’s was by far the most unprofessional, especially when it came to communication. If you want honesty, reliability, and respect for your time and money, look elsewhere."

"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."

FAQs for basement leak repair projects in Newburgh Heights, OH
The cost to finish a basement is $18,400 for the average homeowner. However, this cost could be as little as $2,800 or as much as $34,500, depending on the basement size and the materials needed. If your basement is already outfitted with electrical and plumbing, expect the cost to fall on the lower end.
For example, the drywall cost for this project averages around $1,750, but other features, like hiring a plumber, cost between $45 and $200 per hour.
The cost to remodel a basement is between $12,100 and $33,400 for the average homeowner. The price you pay can be as little as $3,500 or as much as $50,200, depending on the size and condition of your basement and the type of remodel you're doing.
If you're doing a simple project like adding a home office to your basement, you can expect to pay anywhere from $500 to $3,000. However, if you're adding a bathroom, which is an extensive project, you can expect to pay between $6,600 to $16,500.
Damp proofing and waterproofing are both methods to help keep your basement dry. Damp proofing keeps soil moisture from entering your basement, which is helpful since your basement is underground. Waterproofing, however, keeps both soil moisture and liquid water out of the basement, which is essential, especially if you live in a wet environment. Because it’s more protective, waterproofing typically costs more than damp proofing.
Although homeowners often use the terms basement remodeling and basement finishing interchangeably, they are quite different terms.
Finishing a basement is the process of taking a basement space that is not habitable and adding elements to make it usable. This includes adding plumbing, flooring, and insulation.
Remodeling a basement means taking an already existing finished basement and changing it, often by adding or removing walls, adding plumbing, or changing the existing flooring.
The cost of basement waterproofing is $4,950 for the average homeowner. However, you could end up paying between $600 and $14,000, depending on factors like basement size, waterproofing method, and the region you live in.
If you live in an area with heavy rainfall, you might be paying more for waterproofing than if you lived somewhere drier since waterproofing contractors would be in high demand. Likewise, a 500-foot basement costs between $2,500and $5,000 to waterproof, but that price rises significantly for a larger basement.
