History

The father-son team, Ross and Keith Johnson, started Innovative Basement Authority (IBA) in 2005. Keith led the growth of the business and expanded to multiple offices in Minnesota and North Dakota. In 2019, IBA partnered with Groundworks, the nation’s leading and fastest-growing foundation and water management solutions company to invest more in their business and employees. Innovative Basement Authority is an A+ rated accredited business with the BBB and a multi-time winner of the Angi Super Service Award. IBA will continue to provide quality customer service under its new name, Groundworks.

The two guys who came out today, Ben Cook and Travis, were awesome. They were efficient and thorough, keeping us informed all the way and answering my husband's numerous questions. Our steps were raised eight inches in one area! This will be the first winter we will not have to cling to the rail due to ice and a huge slope. They even removed and replaced a pot that I had forgotten to move.
