Nathan Brand was our basement inspector, and we were extremely satisfied with his level of expertise, his thorough inspection and analysis of our basement, and the amount of time that he spent with us educating us on the process. He told us straight up that he wasn’t going to leave for the day until we had all of our questions answered and we were completely satisfied that we had the information we needed in order to make a decision. Nathan was very relatable and personable, and it was obvious that he truly cares about helping people through this process.

The team that worked on our basement were awesome!! The job was scheduled for 4 day but they got it done in 2! The quality of work looks excellent. They left the work site neat and tidy! They always had a smile on their faces even when the work was grueling! They deserved every chocolate chip cookie I gave them! Thank you Austin, Jason, and Noah!!!

Great work on our basement yearly service – DeVon T was kind, professional and thorough. Innovative Basement Authority had added a second sump pump for us 2 years ago, as well as full waterproofing.

Groundworks did an outstanding job leveling and sealing the cracks in my sidewalk and driveway. Greg P. and Brandon S. were professional, efficient, and clearly take pride in their work. The results turned out exactly how I wanted and expected—everything looks solid and clean again. What impressed me most was how quickly they completed the job without sacrificing quality. Completely satisfied with the entire experience and would highly recommend!

Ricky was the technician who came out for a maintenance visit for work we had done a few years ago. He did a great job explaining the inspection he did and the findings. I'm hoping we can work with Ricky in the future on any further work.

I met with Noah to inspect the work my home needed, and then Marc and Brandon came out to fix our sagging concrete patios and sidewalk. The entire team was friendly and personable, respectful of my property and family, explained the process for me and answered any questions that I had, and went above and beyond to make sure that I got the best repair possible within my budget. I got quotes from a couple of companies and got pushy salespeople aimed only at a big paycheck. What a difference with this team, who were all so open and honest that I felt totally confident and comfortable working with them! Thanks, guys!

Dave & John came out to our house for our regular inspection of a system Innovative installed a couple years ago. They confirmed the system was working perfectly. They also inspected the rest of the house and found the house was tilting towards the walkout side. They recommended settlestop push piers to stabilize the house and keep it locked into place. They explained the problem and solutions clearly and effectively, including the pricing and financing options. I appreciate their thoroughness and straightforward approach. Highly recommend!

Big thanks to Jayson. He drove over an hour on a Friday evening to our house for an estimate. He inspected our driveway and foundation. He advised us on what our options are and what he thought was the best route to take. Jayson was very honest, courteous, and friendly.
