The team assigned to my project delivered exceptional results and truly exceeded my expectations. The encapsulation crew—Tysean Lacks, Brennan Cole, and Geovanni Medina—demonstrated exceptional diligence and professionalism, completing the project to a standard that went above and beyond what I anticipated. While the work quality was outstanding, the company’s handling of procedural errors leaves room for improvement. Specifically, when a mistake occurred during the house jacking process—where one jack was omitted from the initial cost estimate—I was disappointed by the company’s approach to resolving the issue. Rather than absorbing the cost of their oversight, they attempted to pass the additional expense onto me, even threatening to cancel the project when I objected. Considering the premium pricing of their services, which often exceeds industry standards, such situations should not arise. To their credit, the company ultimately reduced the additional cost as a resolution, but homeowners investing significant sums—ranging from tens of thousands to six figures—should not bear the burden of internal errors. Overall, while the work itself was exemplary, I encourage the company to re-evaluate its policies for addressing and resolving procedural missteps to better align with the level of service their pricing suggests. That said, based on the overall performance and the final product they delivered, I would highly recommend them.

Very happy with the work and the entire process. Communication was great, and the team of Cale, Shay, and Michael were creative, hard-working, efficient, and cheerful as they surmounted multiple unexpected obstacles presented by my basement and its contents. This sump pump is wayyy better quality than one I had put in by another company on a separate job.

John Beck, the service technician, came out for the annual inspection/ maintenance of our sump pump. He communicated with me several days prior to remind me of the appointment day and time and let me know the day of the appointment what time he expected to arrive. John was very friendly and professional. He explained to me what he was going to be checking and how he would be checking it. He let me know that everything looked okay and operated fine. He gave me his business card and told me to call him directly if I had any concerns or if any problems arose.

We had taken care of the items at our church that we had to do like removing everything from the walls. We received a reminder text several days before scheduled work and again closer to start date. Brock called to give estimated time of arrival each day. Brock, Rich, and Travis were super professional. Communication was great as they kept us informed of the process as they went along. They also set up expectations upon arrival. We had started covering some important items before they arrived, but they covered contents with plastic before beginning the work. They alerted us to any potential problems before beginning the process. Job took a little over 2 1/2 days. We had a wrap up discussion at the end of each day. The guys worked well together and did not stand around. They did the job they came to do.

I first used Groundworks one year ago to install a drain and sump pump to correct a water problem in the basement. It has completely fixed the problem. Today, a team worked to encapsulate a crawl space in another part of the basement. The team of Cale, Joey, Gauge, and Brad showed up on time and worked efficiently to complete the job. Everyone in the company communicates well and is responsive. The teams, both this year and last year, are extremely neat and leave the work space in great condition.

I'm giving 5 stars even though we were unable to have Groundworks complete our job as planned. They bumped us up two weeks ahead of schedule. When they came to the house they found that the work order was missing a bunch of additional things that needed to be added to complete the job. There was a miscommunication between the individuals who wrote the job plan and the workers. The foreman, Cale showed genuine empathy and did everything he could to try and see if it was possible to do the job within our original price range. While Cale moved back and fourth inspecting our crawl space and calling the office to try to find a solution, Joey, Gauge and Brad helped brainstorm and entertain my toddler. When ultimately we would be unable to afford the job after the job was written properly, they were still kind and gave us a direct contact to chat with on the best way to move forward. My Husband spoke with Martin and he was very informative, honest and helpful. Despite us not being able to move forward with our project as planned, we will definitely be going with Groundworks in the future. Everyone we worked with was kind, honest and professional.

About our Pittsburgh location
Situated in southwest Pennsylvania at the confluence of the Allegheny, Monongahela, and Ohio rivers, Pittsburgh has warm summers and cold winters and many cloudy days throughout the year. Wet springs are extremely common, with most rainfall occurring during the month of May. The wet spring combined with winter snowmelt means the ground is often saturated.
Throughout Allegheny County, including towns such as Bethel Park, Monroeville, and Wexford, clay soils can be found that significantly retain water. The clay soil can have a significant impact on your home’s foundation by expanding and creating hydrostatic pressure on the walls. This leads to wall cracks, bowing, and water leaks.
Pittsburgh has one of the steepest streets in the nation and has more mills than most metropolitan areas. This is evident in many homes that experience foundation settlement problems. Stair-step cracks and sticking doors present themselves often in this area.
These common basement issues can have a large impact on your home and your health and wellbeing as a homeowner. Fortunately, the experts at Baker’s Waterproofing are here to help. We offer permanent solutions for basement waterproofing, foundation repair, crawl space encapsulation and repair, and concrete issues.
