Get matched with top concrete foundation repairers in Syracuse, NY

"Rich and his team did a fantastic job on waterproofing my basement. I had many folks over for a quote and the vast majority of them spent hours of my time and quoted me very large prices on installing a waterproofing system. Rich came over, explained what work could be done, quoted a simple price, and left it at that. The crew was professional, timely, friendly, and thoughtful. They even provided sone minor fixes to some outside concrete items free of charge which saved from having to call out another crew for additional work. I highly recommend R. Davies if you want a professional crew who can get a job done efficiently and honestly. "

"This was a very involved plaster repair and remediation job, in a very old house. Grady is the only person (or company) who was willing to take on the job and drive all the way from Pennsylvania to our home in Northern Virginia. There are very few people who do this kind of work anymore (we really searched) and he is an expert in his field. We needed to work around his schedule, because he is in demand in the tri-state area, so it took awhile to schedule the work to begin... but it was worth it."

"I previously used ABS to install drain pots for my downspouts as part of a plan to dry up my basement. Then they installed a commercial sized dehumidifier. I had been running at least 2 dehumidifiers before and they were barely up to the job. At one point I used an in room air conditioner to dry the basement air. All this was due to a crawlspace connected to the basement that was not correctly sealed. I had closed it up years ago and insulated with fiberglass. There was a plastic sheet covering the ground and it was glued to the foundation block, but it was too thin, not really sealed and after crawling around on it to do repairs and install lines, it was allowing a lot of ground moisture and odor to get into the basement. <br /> We put off doing a proper crawlspace repair because of the cost and inconvenience. After updating our kitchen we got tired of the battle of the basement and decided to tackle the back room/basement/crawlspace problem. First the change from having a real dehumidifier, was kind of amazing. No continuous running, as with the small home units, and it cleared up a lot of the odor and moisture the first day. <br /> I had intentions of digging out the dirt myself and even cut up a large section of the floor. I didn't even remove one bucket before I realized some jobs are best left to groups of younger men with all the tools. A lot of small roots, hard dirt and climbing in and out of the space between floor joists. Brendan and 2 helpers had it cut up and carted away in one day. It was the old type of tiles that either had asbestos in the tiles or the adhesive, not a job for an unskilled, unprepared homeowner. <br /> Because the ground in the crawlspace was uneven, ABS ended up removing about a foot of dirt to give clearance to all parts of the space. Unfortunately for them there were a lot of roots and rocks, so even with room to stand after the floor was removed, it was really hard work. On that day I think there were about 6 men working. Some digging, loading and one or two carting wheelbarrows of dirt all around to the low spots in our yard. Maybe 3+ tons by the time they were done, but probably seemed like a whole lot more to them. Hard, dirty, work, but they did it all and removed a course of block from the crawlspace entrance that goes into the basement. <br /> After the space was leveled they pinned pink, rigid insulation around the exterior walls and foamed insulation onto the irregular areas above and over the old vent window. This was covered by a super thick, ripstop, cover that went over the insulation and covered the floor. That was glued to the lower edge of the crawlspace entrance sealing the dirt/ground once and for all. <br /> We avoided this project for years. You adapt to things and you ignore things out of sight, but we already enjoy the results. Space for storage, a cleaner, dry, basement, no musty odors on a humid day and a new solid floor. The old sub-floor was 'soft' in well trafficked areas. Tim explained all this, but I wanted an easier, less costly way. I eventually realized you don't really save any money in the long run and you don't solve the problems unless you fix them. ABS had the experience, equipment and people to solve this problem. They showed up on time, worked hard and smart, cleaned up after and did the kind of job I wanted to do. You can't beat experience and it seems like everyone knew their job and most importantly took pride in their job. I'm impressed by each of them. Lots of people could move a wheelbarrow of dirt, but very few could do it all day, put the dirt where you want it and be happy doing a hard job. Some people know how to foam insulation or prepare a floor or a wall, but few do the kind of job they would be proud to show. Many would be tempted to cut a corner here or there, to get out of the job as quickly as possible. I didn't see that on this project. We are happy and can't think of many things we would change, except to do all this years earlier instead of waiting till now. <br /> <br /> <br />"

"Initially said he was booked through following month, but squeezed us in on weekend due to some urgency with the work we needed performed.(repair to hole in foundation block) Gave us a reasonable quote for the work to be done. Had work completed in 2 days as stated while we were out of town. Did a great job and made sure the area was cleaned after leaving site. Would use him again for other work."

"Very well. It started with the estimate visit by Ron. Unlike other contractors, he showed me just the necessary amount of work. For example, others told me my lally columns would need to be replaced and he showed me that the rust was superficial. That saved me hundreds of dollars. When they got there on time, the crew was obviously experienced and worked well with me and with each other. They worked efficiently, were very nice and cleaned up after themselves - inside and outside. They did little extras for me such as prying up a specialty floor tile to preserve it and fill in a channel which had been cut into the basement floor previously. I felt no hesitation to ask questions, which is kind of rare in work crews. They said the job would take 2 days and it took about 1.5 days. Another extra was I needed 2 new basement windows. 3 had been replaced previously and Ron took the time to order identical windows so all 5 windows would match. That was nice. All this for a reasonable price. I highly recommend B-Sure!"

"I am completely satisfied with my experience working with Haskell. Jim was very responsive to my calls and text messages, provided valuable feedback to my original design concept and was just an overall pleasure to do business with. On the day of the pour his team was committed to finishing a quality job, staying well past sunset due to the concrete delivery being delayed. I would highly recommend Haskell for any concrete project."

"The job went very well and I was extremely pleased with the results.  From the time Jay gave me an estimate, which was very fair,  to the completion of the work Jay kept me apprised of how the project was going.  His crew was very professional.  It you are in need of masonry work and want a professional job at a fair price I would highly recommend Jay and CNY Masonry.  <br />"

"Im very pleased with the job they did. John (the business owner) works right along with his employees, making sure everything is done perfectly. Showed up on time and did a great job. Very professional. I highly recommend."
