"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."

"This review is for Master Services, Crawl Space and Foundation Repair in Knoxville, TN. phone # 8653453030 , [*** Link removed ***] . We had the pleasure of meeting Nick (Sales Inspector) and Brandon, Brandon, and Jacob (Installers). We hired Master Services on 2/16/21 (work done on 2/22/21) to install a WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system in our home in Greeneville, TN. Nick is a terrific salesman. He is professional and does not push any unnecessary work. Brandon, Brandon and Jacob (I believe Jacob was our installers name - sorry if not), did such a tremendous job. They worked quickly, efficiently, and made sure to keep our home free of mess. Overall we are very happy we hired Master Services and recommend them to anyone needing foundation repair."

On 18 July 14, Mr. Doug Cherneski, from Ameri-Dry, came to my home on a scheduled visit to assess my foundation to see if it was in need of repair; however, before I continue with my experience with Mr. Cherneski allow me to explain how I came to finally meet him!

In the month of November 2013, I was preparing for a seven month deployment to the Middle East in the month of December 2013.  I wanted to have my crawlspace thoroughly insulated to make my living room and kitchen area warmer for when family and friends for when they would come to visit and see me off for my deployment.  Initially I looked on the internet to try and find a provider that insulated crawlspaces and learned a lot about what crawlspaces certain companies would do work in (based upon the size of the crawlspace).  The majority of companies said my crawlspace was too small for them to come and do insulation.  Eventually, I came across JES Foundation Repair and they said that they could do the work on my crawlspace - needless to say I was pleased with their response.  While looking at their website I noticed their educational pages on actually signs of failing foundations.  I was experiencing some of the very signs they described, i.e. spider cracks along the door frames and windows of my home, etc.  Concerned about what I was reading I scheduled an appointment to have a representative come out to assess not only my crawlspace for insulation but also my foundation, too, for any major damage needing repair!

I envisioned JES coming out and making a thorough check of the inside, outside, and underneath the crawlspace of my home; however, what I envisioned didn't come to fruition completely when JES sent out their representative Mr. Bart Butler.  I must admit, Mr. Butler was professional and very cordial; however, he was also very large (I'm not being superficial at all when I say that) and I knew from his size he would not be able to fit into my crawlspace to assess for any signs of damage!  Needless to say, I invited him into my home to hear what he had to say!

He came in and used his tape measure to get an approximation of my crawlspace by utilizing my living room and kitchen floors.  Afterwards he gave me a quote of what it would cost.  Next, I requested his opinion regarding my cracks around my doors and windows.  He then said that I had clear visible signs of a failing foundation.  He then went outside and checked around the outside and expressed that my home leans forward in the front and backwards in the rear.  He did all of this without actually going into the crawlspace.  He then told me that I needed footers, etc. to make my home stable and balanced.  He gave me a quote of $11,000 to get the foundation worked on.  He also said that he would include the crawlspace insulation in the price if I signed for the work to be done with JES. 

After he left, I talked it over with my mom and she expressed to hold off on getting any work done until I returned from my deployment then I would know for sure what I wanted to do and would have a chance to see if the insulation worked or not, since I'd be home the winter of 2014.  I'm grateful that I listened to her because when I returned I had to deal with a VERY EXPENSIVE vermin infestation that happened to my home while I was deployed! 

After assessing the vermin damage, I decided to use Angie's List to search for alternative foundation repair specialist to get their opinion.  I made hard contact with Ameri-Dry and they sent Doug over to assess my crawlspace and foundation.

He arrived on time and was courteous and professional!  Shortly after our introduction, he asked me why I called so he could get more detailed information, etc.  After that he asked to be taken to the crawlspace.  He then proceeded to unscrew my crawlspace screening and crawled through a curtain of spider webs without even flinching.  I was impressed because I don't like creepy crawlers or things associated with them like webs!  He proceeded to crawl all the way to the dry and dark recesses of my crawlspace - at this point, I could only hear his voice since his body was totally engulfed by the darkness - keep in mind this took place on 18 July when it was very HOT outside!  He stayed in the crawlspace for a considerable amount of time...I just knew the spiders had got him or that he succumbed to the darkness and heat!

To my relief, he eventually came out covered in dirt, grime, and spider webs and just brushed it all off like it was nothing!  Then he said something to me that shocked me!  He said, "Sorry, Mr. Hall, I would sure like to do business with you but after looking around the outside of your home's foundation and underneath at your home's foundation I don't see anything wrong and can't find a reason to take any money from you",...,...,...,...,...,..., I was speechless, dazed, and confused for a minute because I was expecting to hear the worse and to get confirmation on what Mr. Butler had told me eight months ago! 

Doug then walked with me back into my home where he began to educate me on what he saw by doing show-and-tell!  He showed me pictures of what a poor or weak foundation actually looks like and then described my foundation as being strong, solid, dry, and with no signs of failure!  He felt so comfortable with his findings that he proceeded to write a report on what he saw for my records...AWESOOOOOOOME! 

He then began to talk to me about ways to save on insulating the crawlspace to make it warmer and even told me that Ameri-Dry insulates crawlspaces for dampness only and that he wouldn't try to insulate it because that wouldn't solve my cold floor issues - OMG, this GUY IS ACTUALLY VERY, VERY, HONEST AND DIDN'T HAVE A LOVE OF MONEY AT ALL!  He could have hustled me with insulating my crawlspace, but he actually refused...I tell you what...whenever I do have any future foundation issues or if I come across someone who does DOUG, FROM AMERI-DRY, WILL BE THE FIRST I REFER THEM TO!

Eventually, I did experience a pipe that burst in my crawlspace a few weeks after Doug came to visit (because I didn't leave the valve opened while I was gone) and even the plumber, who actually went into the crawlspace to fix it, said, without me asking him, that I have a very solid and dry foundation that will last for years to come!  I then explained my first experience with JES and he said unfortunately a lot of unsuspecting homeowners get swindled because they don't know the difference between a bad home foundation or a home that is simply settling because of the weight of the house, etc.

Guess what?  That was the same thing that Doug said (minus the swindling part)!  He said that my home was settling because the soil was adjusting to the new addition that was built a few years ago and because of the crazy 2013/2014 winter snow and rain it caused the soil to shift which caused settling!

'm not going to say that Mr. Butler was trying to swindle me but his inability to access my crawlspace and get dirty and actually see the foundation caused me to reevaluated his motives.  I will say no more than that!

However, what I can say for sure is that Mr. Doug Cherneski, from Ameri-Dry has earned my review and I will refer them to anyone who ask!

Thanks, Doug, and thanks, Angie's List, for everything!

Respectfully,

Cassel Hall

"Extra work was performed with extra expense & not discussed with me. We eventually settled but the roof leaked in 2 separate places. They said they would fix and it was "under warranty ". At least four requests were made to "fix it". They never showed up. I had to pay $2,600 to repair their insufficient workmanship. I would never allow anyone I know to use them."

"Paul and his team are true professionals. They went above and beyond and installed, repaired and left me with fantastic looking garage. Not only do these gentlemen know drywall, they can fix drywall problems and they do great work! They did a site survey, provided me an estimate and firm start date. They were true to the price (which I consider very competitive) and began and finished on the day they said they would. I would hire them again in a second! Plus, they are simply nice guys, easy and fun to be around. They truly enjoy their work. If you choose to go with them you’ll have friends for life. Nothing but good. Finally, in the crazy world we live in today they are role models for good citizenship and manners. GREAT!!!!"

"They did a great job. They solved all the problems I had with the chimney and it’s been working perfectly ever since. They also fixed a problem on the roof around the chimney; they replaced the wood around the chimney with a material that would never rot, so they fixed it even better than it was before. It took them a couple of days to do the work. They took care of all the cleanup as well. We've been real happy with them."
