"Parris Houchins and Benjamin Esparza did an outstanding job repairing the entrance to my driveway. A couple of wrecks had damaged the concrete and caused it to sink and crack. AFS came in and lifted the sunken areas and then replaced the broken concrete. AFS does business the old fashioned way - they do what they say, and they fix it right the first time. Highly recommend this company."

"Let me start off by saying, I am probably one of the most difficult clients to work with for home renovation... I am in the trades and an avid DIY type of guy. I am very hands on and take on most projects myself. I am not easily persuaded by salesman or sales pitches because I REALLY do my research before I let them enter my home. I got quotes from 4 different waterproofing companies before I met Fred Thomas. All 4 companies had different solutions to my situation. 1 waterproofing company used a scare tactic and told me my house was going to fall over if I didn't use their system... He then showed me on his laptop a video of how his companies system corrects the problem... Let's just say it was very expensive, confusing and would have destroyed our entire front yard adding more costs to an otherwise un-precedented and expensive fix... When Fred came thru my door, I knew he was the real deal. No sales pitch, no scare tactic, no laptop, just straight up and to the point... Fred uses a system that has been proven and works. He sells his product on experience and reliability not on new unproven technology or cheap inexpensive band aids. He knew exactly what the problem was and how to correct it. I wanted the guy who actually can install these systems on my house to sell me the job, not one who only studies the theory on the system. Thomas Waterproofing was booked 6 months out and I needed this project pushed forward quicker, Fred made it happen! His team was out the following weekend to get our job done. I probably drove them crazy with questions and picky requests, but they did everything I asked and more. During the project I found out I had to replace the cast iron sewer line in my slab. Another expensive repair... Not only did Thomas Waterproofing do the job we agreed to, they also Jackhammered out the slab for the plumbing to be re-done and supplied all the stone to be back filled. He did this as a favor to help me save on costs. David and Devon the 2 team leaders are great guys and very hard workers, I would have them do work on my home any time. I was very impressed by their overall knowledge of construction. Great attitude and great people to be around. This is the business you want on your project... Extremely pleased with the work done! Thank you Thomas Waterproofing!! -Eric"

"It was crawl space remediation and encapsulation. Didn't find this on selections of choices. Michael, Shana, Anthony did a great job. They took the time to explain all procedures used to correct our crawl space. I would highly recommend them."

"John Alguire and his crew arrived promptly and got straight to work. They had to remove an old sidewalk, dig out and remove 4 large tree roots, then prepare for the new cement, extending the sidewalk all the way to the street. They also sloped the new sidwalk to repair a drainage problem. The work was done beautifully. They even cleared the culvert pipe that runs under the new sidwalk extension. The work was completed in one day and for the quoted price. John and his workers were all polite and professional"

"About four years ago, I had my sewer line cleaned by another local company. At that time, the person doing the cleaning bent his augur on â somethingâ and drew back mud. He told me that they would have to rip down my retaining wall and repair my line as â itâ s broken and you need a new sewer lineâ . Being retired and disabled, I was not able to afford it, so I bought a hand augur and did my own line but I could never get past 30 feet in doing the line. Lately there has been more back up and the line was not draining much at all. I called in a national company to clean the line and they also suggested running the camera down it and seeing where the damage---possible collapsed clay pipe?â was. After analyzing reviews online for trenchless sewer repair, as I did not want to rip down an over 100 year old stone retaining wall, I decided to call Gardner Plumbing and have them camera the line. The sewer was full of water to the top of the floor drain, and when Kevin came out he meticulously augured that sewer line for close to four and a half hours until it was clear and even made it to the main sewer line under the street. In doing so, he removed an unbelievable long thick root that was in the line that I can best describe as looking like a root from a Redwood tree! He then ran the camera as far as he could and there was no damage at all to the line: a few cracks, but no damage/breakage whatsoever! Instead of costing thousands of dollars to replace the line, I was charged a reasonable amount for the augur of the line and the camera. I highly praise this work that Kevin did and I thank him and Gardner Plumbing for being honest and not immediately trying to convince me on getting a new sewer line when I didnâ t really need to replace it. I will use this company in the future and will tell my neighbors about the greatâ and honestâ work that Gardner did. Thank you Gardner, you have a new happy customer now! ï"
