Chad and Josh were great. The communication was clear and prompt and the work was great as far as I can tell. The first rain after the job and I could already tell water was draining away from the house.

Had some disagreements with the sales advisor but Walker, the Sales Manager, corrected things as how it should be and things worked out. Huge shout out to the following individuals who did the deck foundation work on my property: Timothy Richter (CFI), along with Braxden Chouinard, Caitlin Hove, Chris Story, and Matt Doefler. Thanks for your knowledge and expertise.

Chad and his crew of Drinor and Greg did an excellent job and were VERY fast. This was a stressful enough time with some major basement issues but they all made it that much easier. When all is said and done I am confident with the quality of their work and know we made the right choice going with Innovative.

After a failed attempt by a friend to install new drain tile in my basement, we hired Groundworks. Jarod the estimator was awesome and is a solid, pleasant contact person to deal with. Very happy to have met him as he is and outstanding person. The crew was led by an amazing young man by the name of Ian. He had a work ethic that you just don’t see in this day and age. His crew Skyler and Andreas were awesome and we had zero concerns about them being in our house or about the quality of work they would do. We interacted with all of them, and they are all very pleasant, hardworking young men. Every one of them had great communication skills and kept us informed at every step of the way. I would recommend Groundworks Rush City and Ian and his crew without reservation! Thank you for the hard work guys, you worked your tails off for us, and it is very much appreciated. Chris and Heather

Arrived later than expected, but got to work immediately. Isaiah explained the process and asked if I had any questions. The two man crew were very professional and really seemed to take pride in their work. Everything was done to my complete satisfaction and I would highly recommend their work.

Superior workmanship and customer service above and beyond as always by Gregg P and Brandon S. Groundworks has always been excellent the multiple times for different issues we have used them over the years. Gregg and Brandon very much lived up to those standards. They were patient, thorough and followed through during a somewhat confusing situation to get the job done well and take care of us. Big shout out to both of them and this is exactly why we keep going back to Groundworks and also keep recommending this company to friends and neighbors! Thanks again Gregg and Brandon!

I believe their names were Wyatt and Chris that came to my house in St. Paul. They were thorough, friendly, on time, efficient, and honest. They helped me make sure I didn't have any issues with my foundation and gave me piece of mind for my home. Will definitely contact if I have any foundation needs in the future!
