My experience with Adam Apinis was positive, he did a thorough inspection and explained what they world do for the price which I considered fair. He prepared me for the decision I will have to make about moving and is giving me enough time to make that decision after I look at what I will buy if I move.

I found a hole in my basement floor and signed up to get an inspection at 8:49pm and received a call less than a minute later to get scheduled for the next morning. Jacob Letner and his partner were amazing. They were so thorough. They did a full inspection, walked us through what their tools told them and all of our options. Top notch company and crew. They were so amazing that we scheduled on the spot. They put our mind at ease for a scary situation and are really grateful.

Even though Ohio Basement Authority doesn't do the type of construction work we needed to be done, they couldn't have sent a nicer guy to represent them. Tony Elzholz called us when he was in route to our home, let us know when he was arriving and arrived at the exact time of the appointment. A genuinely nice man from a great company that we would definitely call and recommend if you are having issues with your basement.

Exception customer service really does still exist!! Robert Fleming provided the best possible care we could hope for. He was on-time, thorough, professional, courteous & not a single bit pushy. We honestly will be booking all because of him! He represents the company well & made us feel as if we were in the best hands for our project! Sometimes living in a rural location, and using a large, established company that is not local – it can cause some concern. He explained exactly what our foundation needed/cost/procedure in detail. It was a pleasure having Robert to our home. I highly recommend!!!

We had the best experience with Michele Giarrano! This is our first large project, and she made us feel comfortable with our decision to move forward. She explained the importance of the materials that will be used on the job, set a clear timeline, and we are looking forward to getting started in February! Thank you so much, Michele! If anyone I know needs their basement finished, we’ll be sure to send them your way!

Richard, Donte, Javaun were fantastic! Great communicators, respectful, honest, hard workers. It’s gotta be tough work in a crawl space and these guys never complained, just kept grinding it out. I’d highly recommend this company and their A team.

Kevin Sweeney came out to give us an estimate. He explained the process and answered my questions. Milan, Curtis, Tristan and Joe all worked very hard the whole day. They explained everything they would be doing. I had a minor adjustment that needed taking care of after the project was done. Greg came to the house and resolved it for me. He was very helpful. Thanks so much for all of the hard work. Kim Brandt

I wish I had hired them first! I hired another company to fix my moving bowed and shearing basement walls. They were primarily a waterproofing company, but said they had the solutions to my issues. 3 months after they were complete, my walls cracked and shifted again. (Note, in the attached photos, the patchwork quilt on the walls was the OTHER company.) OBA fixed my issues the correct way. And they were great at every step. The work crew Caleb, Delontae, and Dylan were fast, efficient, and cleaned up when they were done. Caleb made sure to explain what was happening as they did the work and ask if I had questions. The work was thorough, and I feel good about it. And even better, they'll be out in 6 months to ensure everything is working as it should and make adjustments if needed.

Brian C (field engineer) and Steve (install crew leader) are phenomenal. We hired a previous company to do the install, it was botched, and these two saved the day. True professionals and thoroughly impressed with their follow through. Even after the install, they've continued to support the product on questions after the fact. Highly recommend these two for any basement project

Ohio Basement Systems Certified Field Inspector Jacob Letner was very informative about the company and the work to be done having our garage leveled. Jacob Letner's was on time and very precise and honest! He showed us work that we thought had to be done and through the proof of the instruments he used was proof that we did not need basement work. Thank you Jacob Letner!

History
Co-founders Mike and Gayle Rusk knew from experience there was a right and wrong way to make home improvements. In 1999 they started Ohio Basement Systems and literally built it from the ground up, starting with the basement. They knew that customer service and sales integrity needed to be core factors for the company to succeed.
And succeed it did! Growing from a small business to employing more than 100 people. Every day, each team member strives to deliver exceptional customer service with every customer interaction. Based outside of Cleveland, Ohio Basement Systems is proud to serve homeowners throughout Northern Ohio including Akron, Canton, Youngstown, Sandusky, Bowling Green, and nearby.
In September of 2019, Ohio Basement Systems was excited to join Groundworks. The joining allows Ohio Basement Systems access to cutting-edge products to better serve the homeowners of Ohio.
