Posted on AubreyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you, A-1 Basements for helping make our new home dry and safe. We wake up after a storm knowing that our basement is in the best position to handle whatever water flows its way. Steve, Mike, and the entire team were great to work with, transparent on what was needed and how we could go about the work. We are really glad we found A-1 and that our basement is ready for the spring rain. (2026 Update) So thankful for A-1 Basements because when had an issue two years after installation, Steve was very accommodating and supportive. And Tyler did a great job again!Posted on Ed FernandezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Edit 2026: Would give them another 5-star review if I could. When one of our sump pumps encountered a defect (manufacturing flaw), A-1 and especially Steve really stepped up to the plate. They kept their word on the warranty and even replaced the malfunctioning pump with a newer model from a better brand. Tyler showed up at the scheduled time and was done in the blink of an eye. The A-1 team is a classy bunch. Original 2024: We're so impressed by A-1 Basement Solutions! From the time we first reached out to them, they proved to be a cut above the others we'd reached out to. Steve impressed us with his knowledge of basements, and he walked us through the problems and potential challenges we were facing, and suggested two course of action. We worked with him to then tailor the approach to our needs, and schedule. The work required a couple of days, and two sets of A-1 teams supported the project. Mike, Tyler and Mario were fantastic to work with, as they got our basement ready and assessed the property. Rafino and his team were next, and were equally stellar. Both teams worked extremely hard and diligently, even during bad weather. A-1 was extremely easy to schedule, and they accommodated us for quite a few stages of work, even sooner than we expected, thanks to Kelly at the office. A-1 does terrific work and we're glad we went with them.Posted on Andrea Talbott-RykerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Honesty is hard to find these days, but Steve is a rare find. Highly recommend!!!Posted on Sunil RTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ruffino and his crew did a wonderful job. Greg explained the job and was available through out the process to answer all my questions.Posted on Erin ScudderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Steve told me right away he couldn’t help with the issue we were having, but spent his time giving me really good advice on how to find the right person for the job. I will definitely think of A1 in the future if we need help with basement waterproofing!Posted on Marielle FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ruffino and Tyler of A-1 Basement solutions did a great job sealing my basement, installing a sump, french drain, E-Z breathe system, and replacing old windows. They carefully and meticulously covered everything and even when they dug the discharge drain out they carefully maintained the lawn. Steve who came to provide the quote and answer all my follow-up questions was easy to work with and thorough. I highly recommend this service to get a dry basement!Posted on MMTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot recommend A1 Basement Services highly enough for French drains. From our very first meeting last year, Steve set a high bar for customer service by being completely upfront and completely transparent. Unlike other companies that rely on high-pressure sales tactics and 'scare gimmicks', Steve gave us straight facts and walked us through our options with zero pressure. When we finally moved forward with the French basement this year, the execution exceeded our expectations. Rafino and his crew were phenomenal—they were professional, courteous, and took the time to consult with us on the best placement for our sump pumps and EZ Breathe system. They completed the entire project in just three days with incredible attention to detail and craftsmanship. If you are looking for a waterproofing company that values honesty with top notch quality, A1 Basements is the only way to go.Posted on Diane GoldsteinTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very timely, honest, and upfront about what needed to be done. I would definitely recommend this company.Posted on Stephen HessTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very good workers who did a good job. The only problem I have with them is their lack of warranty information and after care procedures having gotten no written information. I have had sump pumps for years and know that there will be failures, at some future date and what do I do in case of emergency?? The owner called me and re-sent the warranty information which corrected the above situation. I re-rated them to 5 stars as the owner has assured me that if there is a problem with the system, going forward, he will personally see that they will take care of it immediately.Posted on Sankara NarayananTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just completed the foundation crack repair. Rufino did a good job. Great services and great work. Special thanks to Steve
