Inspection Service
We hired Groundworks (formerly Baker?s Waterproofing) for a $20,000 basement waterproofing project that was promised to be fast, dust-free, and high-quality. Instead, our home was left coated in concrete dust, parts of the job were rushed, and unsafe wiring still powers our sump pump. Promised electrician service has yet to happen. Three months later, the $10,000 filtration system is still unusable. This project has cost us significant time, caused stress for our family, and left us with ongoing safety concerns. We cannot recommend this company based on our experience.
Although one middle manager tried to help and arranged partial repairs, upper management ignored most issues. Three months later, the air filtration system remains unusable, electrical hazards persist, and no restitution has been made. What an exhausting mistake at a deeply personal cost.

Groundworks did an excellent job for us. Everyone was so professional and we know we received quality work for a reasonable price. It has been over a year since our waterproofing project in the fall of 2023. At that time we had “nuisance leaks” in our basement but they were becoming more and more problematic. We hired Groundworks to waterproof our basement. The winter spring and especially the summer of 2024 were very wet where we live. We were so proud of our lovely dry basement. It is now the summer of 2025 with lots of rain but there have been no leaks since Groundworks completed our basement project. We are very happy with their work!

Tanner Welling was here today to inspect a small area of water on our basement floor. We have waterproofing from Baker,s, now Groundwork?s for the past 3 years. My husband called on Tuesday about the problem and here was Tanner just 2 days later to inspect the basement! He was very thorough and explained everything in detail as he went along. He is a very nice young man and solved the problem. We were very pleased with the quick response from Groundwork?s and the work of Tanner

Foundation, Basement or Crawlspace Waterproofing / Encapsulation
Really professional and friendly, were able to complet the work way faster than I expected and showed up on time, and finished a day early. I'm very happy and as they were able to fix structural issues as well as put in a french drain at the same time, they took a lot of heartache out of the organisation. The crew were skilled and experienced and happy to share project knowledge. I'm recommending them to my neighbour.

I called for service and had alot of trouble getting through. I wasnt informed about the merger with ITG. Bakers should have an emergency phone number for after hours issues. When I finally got through Jessie was very polite and had no one availible to take care of my issues but within a few hours Jeff Sodrick showed up to handle everything.
Response from Groundworks
"Hello. We appreciate you taking the time to rate your experience with us. We are happy that the service went very well, but we are sorry for any issues that occurred at the start. - Baker Waterproofing."
