I just wanted to take a moment to say how impressed we are with Dan Heath and the excellent customer service he gave us. Dan was knowledgeable, professional, and patient before, during and after our new basement gutter system was installed. In today's fast paced world, it is hard to find somebody who will take the kind of time Dan gave us. We are truly grateful for his service and would not hesitate to contact him again!

I would highly recommend FSM! Miguel and his crew, JasmanY V, and Jose V were polite, hard working, and efficient workers. Miguel kept me informed throughout the process of the progress they were making, showing me and explaining exactly what they were doing. When a change was made to the original contract, it was discussed with me, and I received a prompt call back first thing in the next morning, agreeing on a credit to my account. The worksite was all clean when they left. Job well done!

The FSM team did a great job of installing AquaStop WallSeal in our basement and attaching it to our sump pump system. Jacob Se, Martin H, Decovon S, Alex K and DeWayne L were competent and friendly. They walked us through what they were going to do and even put back our dryer without us asking.

My husband and I had foundation systems of Michigan come out to do our crawlspace. The installers that came were very professional cleaned up after themselves and did a very good job. The installers names were Jonah Hamilton, Logan Dean, Bryant Dozier, and Kiko Hartley. All four of these men did a great job and were very professional. I would definitely recommend having them out to do work at anyone’s home!

Alex, Marcus and Josue were efficient, professional, and quite enjoyable to work with. They worked around my landscaping, had great attitudes, paid attention to detail, informed us of what was going on, what to expect next and how to finish the project. Nothing rattled them. They were patient, and very good at their jobs. Alex was foreman on our job and was very patient and kind. We needed that attitude and it went a long way in not making us feel in the way, or a bother to them. Thank you for that! Now let the polyfoam fun begin next. Thanks guys!

Joe. Was so cool with we didn't want him to go.We had so much fun, but he said he couldn't have a drink with us.Because it was Lent, he, he told us a bunch of stuff that the other companies didn't say anything about. We didn't know that our house was settling and they were more expensive. You guys got a really, really, really good employee here.

Fsm workers came out to lift my sidewalk and driveway slabs because the city of Hazel park is incompetent. The workers from Fsm were great in every aspect. Punctual, polite and worked quickly producing amazing work. And muck more. The people who did the work, Jason R. and Jordan B. Went above and beyond to make sure everything was to my satisfactory. This is only the second review I have ever done, but I definitely needed to after seeing the results. Thanks fellas!

Meet with Donald Antcliff about a issue in our crawl space and he was very professional and helpful in explaining the situation. Although work was not needed we would call in the future if we needed work done.

History

Starting in the family garage in 2007, Bob Genord saw a need in the marketplace for a professional company that treats customers with respect.


From those humble beginnings grew the most trusted basement waterproofing, foundation, and crawl space repair company in the state- FSM. Starting with one location in Livonia, soon additional offices in Grand Rapids and Traverse City were added to better serve the entire lower peninsula and the Eastern Upper Peninsula.


The acquisition by Groundworks in July 2020 was a natural progression, as Genord always did what was best for his community and employees. The team-up allows FSM to expand further and faster, with more resources, to better serve the people of Michigan and beyond.
