Get matched with top foundation drainage installers and replacers in Eden Prairie, MN

"Randy and his small army of tradesman removed only the amount of basement floor needed to correct a drain tile issue that was created by the home builder 15 years ago. After the work was done. Everything was cleaned up, and the job came in as quoted. Randy is a great partner when you need your basement water issue corrected."

"Gardner Construction provided a project estimate one day after contacting them. Scott walked through options and provided honest recommendations for the garage floor and foundation repair that was needed. Any questions I had regarding the process or estimate were answered promptly. Gardner (Scott and crew) did an outstanding job replacing the garage floor and deteriorated foundation cinder blocks. The crew showed up early every day, were polite and respectful and got right to work. They went above and beyond in how they conducted their work and explained the process and improvements they were making to do the job right. The job site was kept organized and they cleaned up very well after they were completed each day. The entire crew was trusting, professional and knowledgeable - and aimed for quality and perfection. Highly recommend!"

"Very friendly, very knowledgeable, and great price. I would recommend All-Star Basements to anyone in Rochester. They know there stuff and get the job done in a timely fashion at a great price."

"Colin is an experienced and knowledgeable professional. I respect a contractor who recommends solutions we can try ourselves first. We plan to implement Colins recommendations and if we are successful a huge thank you. If the issue is not resolved Browns Basements will be our first call."

"Sam came and looked at my house, took pictures and said he would provide me with a quote for painting the trim on my house. He called me back a week or two later to say that he thought painting would be too expensive & said that he would get me quote on wrapping the trim in aluminum. 

After a discussion with Sam, he has assured me that he did send the quote in a timely manner and I, for some reason, did not receive it.  I am impressed that he has taken so much time to discuss all of this with me.

While he did not do the work I needed done - he seems to be a good and honest businessman and seems to be truly concerned that I was not satisfied. I may or may not look to him again for work in the future- I would recommend him to others, because I believe that his company does good work and the bid, when I saw it, was respectable. I'm sure if Sam's company had performed the work it would have been impressive.

"John, at Radiant Radon was very professional and passionate about his work. He was the only contractor who was willing to come out to my house and explain the process and where the mitigation system would go. The install took less than 5 hours and they cleaned up everything perfectly. The price was reasonable, the workmanship was impeccable, and John is a super friendly guy. I would highly recommend Radiant Radon."

"When we decided to remodel our basement I contacted several contractors and was kind of surprised at the lack of response I got from a number of contractors. It literally took weeks for one contractor to call me back and some just never bothered. This was NOT the case with Fair & Square. They were very responsive from the start and after meeting with me to review the details of what we wanted to do to finish out our basement they provided me a ballpark estimate for the project. They didn’t come in as the cheapest bid but it did fit within by budget and to that point they had been the easiest to work with and seemed the most interested in the project. We signed on to have them complete the job including adding a fireplace, sound insulation in the ceiling and my favorite, the Onyx shower surround in the bathroom. They took several weeks to complete the project and were great about making sure we knew what to expect and when. If an issue came up they let us know and offered reasonable solutions. The project came in within the cost range they originally proposed and we ended up with exactly what we were looking for. I couldn’t really ask for more than that!"

"In summer 2015, we contracted Mill City Concrete & Masonry to replace our sidewalk from the front steps to street.  
Although we were very pleased with quality of the work we found that the bottom steps were not ideal for our aging situation. 
We talked to Tim about our concerns and he did not hesitate to agree to a do-over on those steps. The new steps not only met but exceeded our expectations. It?s great to work with a company that stands by its work. Also, the crew was great. We would not hesitate to call them again.

Vitaly (owner) came to my house to see what needed to be done and to offer suggestions.  He was polite and professional.

Viktor came to work on time a few days later to start the demolition. The dumpster was not there the first day so he came back the next day to start. No problem.  Viktor and his helper worked very hard to demolish  the bathroom.  They cleaned up each day before they left.

There was some mold on an adjacent bedroom wall , which was not surprising, since the some of the old bathroom shower tiles were missing.  Vitaly thought that we could find some kind of a solution to get rid of the mold, but  none of the stores had a powerful enough formula to do the job right.  After a  few days, I decided it was best to have that wall removed completely.   Vitaly asked Viktor to give a bid to remove the bedroom wall.  Viktor did not want to take on that job.  Vitaly then gave me a name of a contractor who specializes in mold removal.  I hired that company and in about another week, the mold wall was carefully removed and replaced with another bedroom wall. 

Before the bedroom mold wall was removed, Viktor installed an outside vent cap for the bathroom fan.   There is a small section of roof (approx. 18 inches) with a pitch extending from the side of the house above the bathroom ceiling where the vent roof cap could be placed.

 Viktor installed  a vent cap, but it was the wrong type.  He installed a wall vent cap, not a roof vent cap.  Also, the vent was installed over the shingles and flashing, instead of under them. If left as is, wind and rain  would be able to come into the exhaust pipe or leak under the shingles and enter the bath fan/house.  I notified Vitaly about it.  He called me back and said that they would fix it.  He said that Viktor told him that he had installed that type of vent before.   I said to Vitally that I would remove it and install a new, correct type of vent.

After the bedroom wall was replaced, I decided  that I did not want to use Vitaly's services any more.  I called Viatly and talked to him about the situation and my decision.  He was very polite and listened to what I had to say.  We agreed that it was best to settle on the charges I owed him and move on.    

 I've called Angie's List a few times, since, to talk about the situation.    One of the things that I found from the Angie's List Representative was that Vitaly's company had already been paid by Angie's List.  This surprised me, since I thought a contractor would get paid for a Big Deal only AFTER the work had been done.

  At this point, I want to be sure that Vitaly's company gets paid for the work they did. (they have been paid, amount is unknown) 

  Also, I would like to get a refund for $3700.00     I feel that I owe Vitaly $1300.00 for the work his company did.   My figure includes an adjustment for replacing the bath fan vent and for the extra 5 days the dumpster sat in my yard.

I would appreciate a resolution to this situation so that all 3 parties can move on.  Thank you.

"I was just getting estimates for having a ductless AC system installed in my little cottage. I had a very charming man come to give me a bid. But oh my goodness, what a sales pitch. All about doing it rich this second to get this or that discount, and really putting the fear of God in me about things breaking down, and how they'll replace them no questions asked (I don't believe that for a minute). A really hard sale, and it was at least $2000 over everyone else, and generally $3000 more for a small house just needing 3 units. That's why they can offer the replacement units. But I'd rather buy an insurance package for $400 or some such thing. Not to mention, the route he suggested was quite lengthy and elaborate, and definitely not the easiest way to go about running the piping. That's the problem with someone in a suit selling something they've never actually worked on. Charming, but really savvy. I felt I knew more than he did about plumbing, which I probably do because of my work."
