I wish I had hired them first! I hired another company to fix my moving bowed and shearing basement walls. They were primarily a waterproofing company, but said they had the solutions to my issues. 3 months after they were complete, my walls cracked and shifted again. (Note, in the attached photos, the patchwork quilt on the walls was the OTHER company.) OBA fixed my issues the correct way. And they were great at every step. The work crew Caleb, Delontae, and Dylan were fast, efficient, and cleaned up when they were done. Caleb made sure to explain what was happening as they did the work and ask if I had questions. The work was thorough, and I feel good about it. And even better, they'll be out in 6 months to ensure everything is working as it should and make adjustments if needed.

Richard B, Donte B and Javaun W completed the job in 3 days. Lots of work, but they did it in a timely fashion. Richard was very informative about the process and checked in and out each day between my husband and I. I would recommend this crew to do any basement repairs. We inspected the entire basement and everything is exactly up to what the contract advised.

Richard, Javaun and Mike Y, called and let me know their time of arrival and called while they were a few minutes out. They installed an encapsulation of a crawl space in a timely manner and left it nicer and cleaner than they found it.

CJ came out for our annual inspection - he was very thorough and friendly! He explained his findings in clearly and even gave an estimate for another project when asked. We have been really happy with Ohio Basements… everyone who works for this company does their job well!

Glass Block

I cannot believe the difference basement glass block windows make compared to the single pane we had for many years. We finally had Jacob Letner come out to give us an estimate after seeing their company at a home show a year or so ago. So glad we did! My only regret is not doing it sooner because I can already see a difference in my utility bills and it also looks so much better! Also can’t beat the price for such a nice improvement. Jake was very informative and professional. Would use them again for sure. We used the Greensky financing and it was easy and no problems with that. Had it paid off in a couple months and there was zero interest.

We used this company to waterproof our basement. We spoke with Jacob Letner, who came to our house initially and helped us decide the best plan for our needs. Could not be happier. Definitely worth the money for the investment value in our home. The installers were pleasant and professional and got it done with no delays. I never felt pressured or dissatisfied at any time. Would recommend them for sure.

These guys worked a miracle. My kitchen floor was sinking into my basement. To set the jacks and beams for the floor, Rocco, Sean, and their crew had to crawl back four feet, through an area that had only about a foot of clearance and that was mostly blocked by an HVAC system. Then, they had to excavate manually so that they could pour concrete support for the jacks. The crew completed the job in a day and a half and were courteous, professional, and polite throughout. I highly recommend them for any foundation repair project.

Initial work was done well; however, I had a finished side to the basement. While I was told they would cut the wall at an appropriate height for a chair rail to be installed when re-sheetrocked, the quality of the wall and stud removal left something to be desired. Now a few months later I have a leak in the dehumidifier. I called and was told they could have someone look at it in a week: unacceptable. I would not recommend.
