Drew came out to our house to check out a problem we were having with erosion with spouting drain in ground. He work very hard diagnosing why we had erosion. He could not find anything so far. He was very helpful and thorough. I would recommend his service to anyone. Nice to see there is still people who care. Thanks Drew!

Alvaro, Mario, and Alejandro came out to do our encapsulation and they were very professional and knowledgeable explaining the process as they went. They went above and beyond for us. We were still pulling insulation and they were kind enough to let us work along side them and Mario even helped us throw away our bags of insulation we appreciated that more than they will know. The crawl space is clean and looks amazing thanks to them. Highly recommend!!

We had some work done recently on our driveway and it was not a great experience, so I wasn't exactly excited to do this again for our patio. I wanted to work with someone not involved in the driveway work so I called Groundworks. Sheldon came to give me an estimate on my back patio and in the course of our conversation we told him about work done (and not well done) by other companies and he graciously took a look at the driveway. Because of my prior experience, I honestly just wanted to get a quote for the patio and have this salesman go away. But Sheldon was so patient, funny and informative in explaining what Groundworks could do, and could not do, to address all our cement and levelling issues that he started to "win me over". In the end, we signed a contract with Groundworks based on Sheldon's extreme confidence not only in himself, but the quality of his company and the work they do. Work has been scheduled but not completed, but I am confident Goundworks will do a good job and I will be back to write a review on the finished work.

Did not have any work done yet. They sent Howard for an inspection. Super knowledgeable. Honest (rough) estimate of scope of work to be done due to house leaning with cracks in walls. Based on Howard's knowledge and experience we need to discuss options for corrections. Thank you Howard, it was nice to meet you.

“I give the groundworks crew that worked on my foundation 5 stars. They were punctual, professional, and thorough, ensuring every detail was handled with care. If I ever get work done from this company again, I will ask specifically for Anthony B, Jorge R, and James S, as their expertise and dedication made the process smooth and stress-free.”

Every part of our transaction involving basement wall reinforcement was amazing, from the initial phone call with JoAnn, to the free inspection by Caleb Loy, to the final product installed by CJ and Baron. All personnel were courteous, professional and efficient. Best yet, my understanding is that AFS is an employee-owned company, and this is fully reflected in how all AFS personnel complete their assignments! Would absolutely use AFS Knoxville again, and will refer friends and family to AFS Knoxville for foundation repair, internal water drainage/waterproofing, and structural support.

Houston, TX Very happy with Terik M. and Fassel M. These young men were very professional and did a great job. They kept me posted as they moved thru the work, making sure that i was pleased with what they had done so far. Thanks to Terik's advice I will hold off for 90 days on replacing the rotted siding so the house will be fully settled. Glad I mentioned it to him! Highly recommend Groundworks for future needs.

I'm very impressed by the customer service and diligence of the workers here. Tyler Grace spent hours with me identifying my foundation issues. Corey and his crew then did an amazing job correcting the issues AND saving me money by not doing unneccessary work. I never would've known, so you can trust these guys! I'm very much appreciative of their hardwork. Thank you.

It's been a major job repairing my failing foundation walls, and I'm very grateful for the 3 teams from Foundation Recovery Systems who stuck with it and got it done! Nicholas Bartone & crew who started the job and made sure I had the system that would be the best fix (and wouldn't break the bank!). Richard Baird & crew who built and drilled and jacked until it was all level and supported again. And Jeremiah & Jake who filled all the new structures with rock-hard foam so nothing moves (and left the place cleaner than it was to start with!). It's a huge relief to have this project done, and although it took longer than expected due to freezing weather and a change in project scope, I would still highly recommend working with this company. Great communication through all stages, no high pressure sales, and detailed explanation about the process throughout.

Charles Halmark is an exemplary example of the perfect employee. This man was on time and did every inspection by the book and then explained everything in detail. This was the best explanation of things going on under our house that I have ever heard and he made it all make sense. AFS you need to keep this guy around!!! AFS as a whole is a great company also. The barrier that they laid in our crawl space still looks new after several years. The sump pump is still working when it needs to and the dehumidifier is also still working great. Thanks AFS!

“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!”
