OBA provided clear communication and timely scheduling. They were able to come out to our house within a few days of my initial call. Chase was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and professional. He made what could be an overwhelming situation stress-free, and although we realized the root cause of our issue is not something OBA can provide a solution for, I would highly recommend using them to friends and family.

Called Ohio basement authority and had Mark Overmyer at my door the next day. He evaluated our problem and found that it was a plumbing issue and not something they handle. Even though,he was great and checked out the basement and foundation. Prompt and friendly service. Very professional. Would recommend!

My wife and I had a few contractors out to our property to assess our sinking garage slab issue. We ultimately decided to use Ohio Basement Authority as the consultant Nick came out, took measurements and provided details that others could not. We moved forward with having 5 piers installed under the slab. The team that came out to complete the work was Sean, Nick, and Elijah. What a team! They were awesome! They arrived on time, walked us through the process and had it all completed in the same day. Our floors is now even and the gaps that existed are now gone in the walls. Thank you to your team for taking care of this project for us. They also made it super easy with Payment Options for us as well which is perfect around the holiday season.

This review is strictly based on the inspection/estimate phase. Everette Butler was extremely thorough, personable and knowledgeable. I couldn’t be more impressed with him and the company so far. I have had other estimates from their competitors with similar ratings – the quality and first impressions have been night and day.

I consulted with many contractors before choosing Ohio Basement Authority. Their online reputation seemed legitimate and my initial consultation with Chelsa immediately credentialed their approach, which seemed very broad in their expertise, thorough, and thoughtful. Their availability to both estimate and install the solution was uncommonly well organized. Chelsa impressed me so much I was a tad worried it might be one of those deals where everything sounds good initially, but the execution could disappoint. Wow – there was no disappointment; the execution was flawless. I don’t know who owns or runs this company, but you can tell their leadership has it together and hires good people. Iran H, Chris M, and Zach K arrived early on the morning of the install and ready to do some serious work. Immediately you could tell – this is what they do and they are both good at it and very experienced. They hustled without rushing, and the finished product was incredible. When examining the space together after they were done, I realized I failed to communicate a few small items that Chelsa and I discussed during the solution design. Iran, Chris and Zach were understanding and gracious with their times; they addressed and resolved all the additional items. Not going to lie – this company is not the cheapest option I looked at. But if you want a thing done once and done correctly – you can seriously trust in them based on my experience. Check out the before and after photos. No more horrible smells, high humidity promoting mold to threaten the structural integrity, and unsealed openings for rodent infiltrations. Thank you all for doing such an excellent job!

Working with Justin to set up an appointment was very professional. We had a little hiccup but Justin and Ohio Basement Authority corrected things and made it right. That is greatly appreciated. OBA sent out a great crew of Tyler and Earl! Very professional and personable. Walked me through everything they were going to do and made suggestions along the way. They did an amazing job with the concrete lifting as well as cleaning up afterwards. After working with Justin, Tyler and Earl, I will be employing them for later projects. Thanks, OBA!

First time using OBA for some basement work and the entire experience was top-notch. From the initial consultation with Matthew to the work being completed with Drake and Kevon, the process was well explained, quick, and professional. We will definitely consider them first if any additional basement work comes up!

Structural Repair Specialists in Dayton-Springfield

The weather affects more than just your mood and activities. It also can lead to significant damage if your home is not properly waterproofed. The region’s soil also has a lot of sway in this process as well. Western Ohio areas like Dayton-Springfield, Troy, and Xenia experience warm, humid summers and cold, windy winters. The wet season also lasts from March through August, during which a reasonable amount of rain and thunderstorms saturate the soil.

The predominant type of soil throughout Ohio, including Dayton-Springfield, is Miamian, a type of loam soil. It is made up of a fair amount of sand, clay, and slit that will have high water levels, which will sooner or later affect your home. Common problems brought on by the wet, humid climate and soil include foundation wall cracks and bowing, high indoor humidity, basement or crawl space flooding, sagging floors, and mold growth.

Don’t be shocked if these damages sound familiar. Homeowners like you around Dayton-Springfield have these issues in their homes, but they can be easily addressed with the help of professionals. Ohio Basement Authority can help you create a safer and healthier home with fully customizable, permanent solutions for your foundation, basement, crawl space, and concrete repair needs.
