    Holes drilled for geopolymer injections
    Stephany M.

    Gene and crew were very respectful, polite, and quick/diligent in getting their work done. There was an instance where a gentleman was working at my kitchen window and my dogs were going off. The window was open, so I went over to close it and he was deep in his work but said, "Sorry about that ma'am." Just appreciated that. Not even their fault. It's mine and my dogs. Just a great crew. We bought our first home and a year in we started realizing we were getting cracks in our ceilings, our tile was shifting, and the door to our garage wasn't closing. We share a wall to the freeway so they built a wall in between. I'm sure they compacted the dirt and shifted our foundation. So we knew we had to hire Gene when he came out and talked about our options. After the crew finished the job, the tile in our kitchen rose back up, our backyard isn't as disheveled and we can finally move forward into building our home.

    Horrible experience. They don't know what they are doing. Instead of fixing the concrete slabs they damaged the other end of the slabs

He spent the time explaining the process and specifically pinpointed how other work I had done contributed to the issues I was having. It was an eye opening discussion and very detailed and honest and made me trust them completely to do the work. The crew did such a thorough and detailed job and I will definitely recommend them to others!

    Overall our experience with PFR was good. The only area of improvement was in communication. At one…read morepoint I received a 9pm text notifying me that workers would be at the property the following day. If I was living in the property that wouldn't have been a problem. But this is a rental property. There are elderly people in the home as well as people who work from home. The person texting me was apologetic. My biggest concern on communication were when fees increased or new fees needed to be paid. PFR had to order additional material which was not expected or disclosed it might be needed in the original contract. I noticed when they sent me the bill. Had I not looked over my bill in detail I would not have known about the additional cost. I spoke to the owner who apologized and gave me a discount. My last bill had an additional fee for a special inspection. Again I was not notified about this additional fee. While this special inspection possibility was disclosed no one told me it had happened. Therefore I had to scramble to get the extra $825 to pay PFR. I should have known about this charge the moment it happened so I could plan accordingly. Those were the main hiccups. Other than that the process was great. It took awhile because of unforseen material that needed to be ordered. The whole process took about 7 months. Which I suspected it would because we were dealing with LA County for permits. The work they did looks great! I am very happy with their work. Everyone was very helpful and nice when I spoke to them, apologetic for the mishaps. The tenants say all the workers were nice and respectful.

Their sales rep David and Josh came out. Super polite, professional and knowledgable. Their recommendation would solve our issue. We signed up and scheduled. On the scheduled day and time Job foreman, Zachary and uniformed crew arrived in a Groundworks truck, reviewed the job specs and got started. The job took one week as planned. Zach, Michael, Kai and Paul were all great! All very polite, and made every effort to make the job at my house the very best. They succeeded. Plenty of photos and videos documenting the work. Everything very straightforward and transparent. So glad we chose Groundworks to do this job for us. They're the Best!

    I would not recommend Groundworks for foundation drainage work. I hired Groundworks in the bay…read morearea, California. When I agreed to finance this 15k job, I was told the drainage from the crawl space sump pump would and could be connected to the main, but when the crew arrived they were not sure where the drain exit should go and said the city of Santa Cruz doesn't allow them to connect and they could not get a permit. Why was I not told this prior to scheduling the work? I made the mistake of trying to figure out the discharge area with the workers who showed up. They asked me where I want the discharge pipes, but I am not qualified to make that decision. That is why I hired them. The workers were nice and tried to be helpful and this is not a complaint about them. I called the representative who originally came out, inspected, and estimated the job, which included connection to main, and that is when he told me that he could not get permits from Santa Cruz county. This is when I should have cancelled the job. The completed job by Groundworks has discharge pvc lines on the side of the house and terminating at the front right corner of the house and I have to figure out how and where to drain all of the water! I thought that was the point of hiring an expert drainage company. After work was completed and after first rain of season, I get flooding in my garage on two separate occasions. I spend the day clearing everything out and drying the garage out. I call and a technician comes out to inspect a day later and tells me that the sump pump under the master bedroom was installed backwards and wasn't working. Groundworks installed two new pumps as part of the drainage plan. Mistakes can be made, sure, but I would think for such a pricey job they would have it inspected prior to signing it off. Now that the second pump is up and running, it is so loud that it is difficult to sleep at night, but at least my garage isn't flooding. The noise disturbance now is unsustainable. Now, after groundworks installed this drainage system, if that second sump pump is not on, the garage will flood. Prior, I had one old sump pump under the kitchen and never had this flooding issue. I don't know why, but now my garage floods. Follow up was horrible. The supervisor Wyatt never got back to me when he said he would about the concerns I had and how to resolve them. Initially, Wyatt asked how they could make me feel better. I asked for a discount because at the time I thought the flooding was resolved, but I was put off for over a month and in that time realized it is not exactly clear why the garage floods. My concern is the flooding issue and not the discount, but no follow up to discuss. The General Manager did not call me or reach out as Wyatt said he would refer me to the GM. I had to make contact many times for any reply. At this point I am told by Wyatt that the GM wants receipts of the damage to my garage. I don't have receipts for me clearing out my garage to the driveway and drying out the garage. I called you all when it happened and you sent a technician the following day who told me it was i stalled backwards. A month later after waiting with no return call, I had to call again and was told they came out and fixed it already and would I like it to be inspected again. At this point, by whom? Can I trust this company to tell me what is actually going on? They don't even call me back. Why is the garage flooding now if it doesn't have two sump pumps running when it only had one prior? This treatment feels horrible. I am not out looking for something for free and a discount. I am looking to protect my home from water damage and that is not happening This was a 15k job and I now have to hire another company that can actually tell me why my garage floods. This is not ok. After I seek assessment elsewhere and get a good idea of what is actually going on with the drainage system that was installed, I will be following up with Groundworks. This is a company that stands behind putting out this quality of work and charging for it. 100% disappointed. This situation was improperly handled in many ways. Communication nonexistent.
