Brandon reviewed the needs at my home and provided the estimate. He was extremely professional and knowledgeable. He took time to answer all my questions in detail. Cody was the foreman of the job on site and I was very pleased with his work. His crew of Mason and Noah worked for several days, always updating me with information and never hesitated to answer my questions and explain things in detail. Very professional crew and treated my home and property with great respect. I am very glad I chose Basement Authority of WV! I will remain a customer due to this experience.

We recently had our crawlspace encapsulated, and Basement Authority of WV were great to work with. Carrie did our inspection and was thorough and communicative. Trenton, Jordan, and Joey completed our project quickly. They were professional, prompt, and efficient. They even came back the next day to address an issue with the custom door. I was impressed by their communication and the way they cleaned up after each day’s work. I would highly recommend all of these folks.

We went with BA of WV after Carrie came over to our house for the initial inspection and was able to point out several issues that both another basement inspector and our home inspector had never mentioned. She took great care to explain to us exactly what she was seeing and the steps needed to fix it. She walked us step-by-step through exactly what we would be paying to have done, and she kept in constant communication after we signed the contract. Brad and his crew were scheduled just a couple weeks after we signed, and they got the work done well ahead of schedule. I was extremely impressed with how the three men on the crew also kept us well informed each step of the way. They made it clear that they were consulting with Carrie and the supervisors through the whole process. **My favorite part about this crew was how creatively and kindly they managed to work around the unique issues out basement presented, even managing to work around issues that we had trouble getting solved before the construction date.** After this experience, we even have Carrie coming back again to discuss with us the logistics of tackling another part of our basement that has left contractors and inspectors baffled previously. Brad even said he and the crew would likely be back if we do the next project through BA. ✨TLDR: The whole team was kind, knowledgeable, consistent, quick, and reliable.

Our initial sidewalk lifting & repair was was not what we expected, however the company sent another crew that did an exceptional job! They were professional, knowledgeable and went above & beyond in their effort to improve the initial repair. The completed job was very good and we appreciate the company standing by their claim to meet customer expectations. The workers Patrick & Raphael not only did an outstanding job, they were also meticulous in the clean-up. They truly exhibit a positive customer service attitude for which we were very grateful!

The experience that we had with basement Authority on our home was very good. Gary did an excellent job on an inspection. He covered all that he looked at all that he saw and what needed to be done and made suggestions and it happened very quickly and within 2 to 3 weeks after Gary was here, we had workers working to put in the complete system. We had a total of five different guys that worked on doing the insulation and encapsulation of the crawlspace. Jason, Travis, Wyatt, Cody and Michael were the guys that we had working on our crawlspace and the first day went super good. Jason gave us updates even if they were leaving just to go get some thing. They always told us that they were going out and they would be back in an hour or whatever the case might be, but they tried their best to keep us informed on how the job was going. They actually thought that they could get through in a day it did not happen but we finally got completed on the fourth day few different things happen but overall as far as a review, I think the guys did really well working in the crawlspace in the water in the muck Ron and Sharon W.
