HOWEVER, I reached out and found they were under new ownership but that the old owner was still involved in the business so I asked for a job to be completed for our kitchen and bathrooms. The kitchen countertops have shown tons of scratches when it was supposed to be super durable. The bathroom has discoloration from heat products on the countertops which again, wasn't supposed to be an issue. I reach out to the owner and he comes out to my house to see the scratched surfaces, and he is baffled! Acts like this never happens and says they've been very busy but he would get me on the books to have someone come out to "buff it out" and repair it. That was FEBRUARY. I'm still trying to get ahold of Ken and he will not return my calls/texts/voicemails.

I have used this licensed company on several occasions, and have been very satisfied with the…read moreresults of their work. First, I decided to upgrade our electric sump pump in the basement, on an older home that we had recently purchased. Not knowing any of the past history on the existing unit, we decided to upgrade it for additional potential flooding protection. We contracted Cincy Dry Shield to install a new, more powerful electric sump pump with full battery back-up. They arrived on time, did a great job on the install, and completely cleaned up the entire work space before leaving. We moved to another older home, a few years later, and we decided to upgrade the existing older electric sump pump. Because of the complete satisfaction with our first experience with this quality company, we called them back again, to install yet another more powerful electric sump pump, with battery back-up. As expected, everything worked out perfectly! Whenever you need a professional job done, at a very competitive price, do yourself a big favor and be sure to call Cincy Dry Shield. You won't be disappointed that you did!

We needed siding fixed for our Tudor and rather than replacing parts of the wood that were rotting, they filled it with putty and filler which never set and was crumbly and soft to the touch. They claimed it needed time to set but after a week of warm temperatures, it still flaked off. How that would withstand a pressure wash before a paint job is beyond me. Trying to talk to their representative about issues that arose was impossible. We ended up doing some work on our own after they finally came around to acknowledging that some of their work was poor quality. Us putting in time and effort and working on the siding was the only way we could move on and get the hired painters in to start our exterior paint job. Mind you we were over a month late trying to get Certa Pro to come work on the project. If you ask ahead about their schedule to come out, you don't get an answer or you get misinformation. They will tell you a time they plan to come and will not show up and will not notify you. While we did not want to replace all of the siding from the beginning because parts of the wood were still in good condition, we did not expect such a poor job with the patch work for the pieces that needed work. This company does not offer to help in any way and their people are difficult to deal with. We used them because we used Certa Pro for painting and they recommended this sister company for carpentry. Biggest regret. We could not put our house on the market on time and they didn't even clean up afterwards. Well, unless you count throwing away parts in our yard waste bin and us having to transfer that to our garbage bin. Anyone else would be a better carpenter. You, yes you the reader, can have a better outcome by watching YouTube to learn how to diy; your efforts would be more skilled than their workers'! Beware and stay far far away! Those positive reviews on yelp look suspect given that they only provided a review for this company and nothing else on yelp. Avoid the headache and stress and go with any other company or professional.

During the heavy February rains of 2018 my fiance and I were cleaning up water for nine and a half hours! After obtaining multiple quotes we decided to go with Helson Waterproofing and are very pleased with the work. Chris and his crew arrived as discussed and even helped us with removing tile beyond the segment needed for the drain which helped in our re-tiling effort. While we had water coming in from every wall the job Chris performed did the trick and we have been dry ever since. We would recommend Chris' work and Helson Waterproofing to anyone in need of handling basement water problems. There's nothing like a dry basement and we are once again enjoying the rain, not dreading it.
