Big thanks and shoutout to Aaron Flowers, Andrew Welty, and Carlos Gutierrez who flew in from the Denver, CO groundworks location to address my encapsulation job in California! All three were complete professionals while completing the project. They treated our home with respect (placed plastic to protect our floors and walls as needed), cleaned up after each work day, and kept us informed on how the job was progressing. We went with encapsulation due to each time we had heavy rain, the crawl space would get standing water/muddy (it comes up from the ground). Unfortunately we had a heavy rain storm the first couple days of the encapsulation project, and as such the crawl space turned into a muddy mess. Aaron, Andrew and Carlos would come out of the crawl space looking like they had just completed a mud wrestling match. They kept a positive attitude, and pushed through the challenges of the muddy crawl space to get the project completed. Thank you Groundworks for sending such a great crew to complete my project!

We had Groundworks out to give us an estimate on insulating our crawl space a few weeks ago. They initially told us they were booked until March. They were very flexible on the services we wanted, and we decided to go with this company. They were able to come out much sooner, which was great because we really needed this done. James, Rory and Geoffrey came out and did a great job installing the insulation. Our crawl space was not easy to work in and we really appreciate the way they stuck with it!

Our Inspector, Chelsa, came to our Dayton home the other day to check on some suspected foundation settling. I was extremely impressed with her knowledge, confidence and the way she went about the inspection. She walked the entire house with me, asking questions, making sure she had the layout and all adjacencies correct. After the walk-through, she set up her equipment and showed me specifically where the major problem was located and explained how it would be corrected. When she delivered her full report, it was done very professionally. When I asked her about her company and how she felt about working for them, she replied that she was proud to work for OBA and that she had a great crew working in Dayton. Chelsa also mentioned their parent company Groundworks, and the fact that they are employee owned. (Full disclosure: I'm a big Mike Rowe fan, and heard the Groundworks CEO on his podcast recently). All in all, a very, very good experience.

We hired Groundworks to install a steel beam after discovering that a previous owner had removed a load-bearing wall in our basement without proper structural support. The initial process was smooth and gave us confidence moving forward. However, the engineer was never scheduled for an onsite visit and completed the documentation without seeing the project in person. I would strongly recommend requesting an onsite engineering review—it would have given us much more confidence, especially with work involving braking a stem wall. That said, the experience wasn’t perfect. We had to reschedule due to a funeral, and it took quite a while to get back into their workflow. Scheduling flexibility is definitely an area that could be improved. The biggest issue came with the first installation attempt. The initial crew missed the mark—the support posts were not placed aligned, and there was unnecessary damage, including cutting through wood framing that was supporting lights. We were also asked to sign off on the work in that condition, which was concerning. To their credit, Groundworks did step up and make it right. The second crew did an excellent job and delivered a much better result. Steve A. coordinated a strong team—Osyrus P., Aaron K., and Holden—who clearly knew what they were doing and took care to correct the issues. Overall, while there were some frustrating moments, I’m giving a high rating because of their willingness to acknowledge the problems and fix the work properly. If you get the right crew and don’t run into scheduling issues, I would recommend Groundworks.

“We had our crawlspace encapsulated. Katie, our inspector, was very professional and spent a lot of time with us explaining the encapsulation process. She also responded immediately to our phone calls after we signed up! Jesse, Micah and Nick were our installers. They were great, worked hard, organized and polite. They explained everything we wanted to know during the process. They were neat (cleaned up everything). They were a great team. Thanks guys. So far, so good!”
