As someone new to homeownership, there are a lot of maintenance items that feel daunting and overwhelming. I asked Groundworks to inspect our foundation because I was seeing some cracks in the brick and a few inside the house. In these crazy economic times, I want to start preparing in the event that I need a multi thousand dollar repair on my home! Jacob came to do the inspection and was so, so knowledgeable and helpful. He showed me areas to look out for and what exactly I should be looking for as far as damage that requires foundation repair. He took measurements all around my house so that if I ever see signs of shift, I could compare new measurements to what he took today. We took pictures of the current state of the house, and he gave me really helpful tips to care for our foundation during the summer. I feel like I just got a fantastic masterclass on home care and I feel so much more prepared to care for this property as it ages. Additionally, I am a woman usually home alone when contractors come to the house and I’m nervous to have a strange man in my house, but Jacob was so kind and never made me feel uncomfortable. Thank you so much, Jacob! I will definitely be sharing my experience with others. Luckily, I don’t have to repair the foundation (yet) but when I do, I know exactly who I’ll call.

The Groundworks crew, (Salvador, Arturo and Lalo) arrived as scheduled and on time. They did a great job installing five push piers under our garage foundation. They finished in one day and cleaned the site when they were done. I would highly recommend them!

James Giuffre at Groundworks provided one the best house service experiences I have received since purchasing our home. He was knowledgeable in his craft, thoughtful and patient with my questions. He explained options both for short term and long term maintenance and his overall approach was consultative. I would recommend James and Groundworks to anyone having foundation questions or needs. Thanks again James!
