Disappointed/Rip Off

Here's the deal....this is my second job with you. The first one (Foundation Work) i was totally happy and over the moon. You were great, your price was reasonable and your work excellent. Your workers were fantastic. The second project, not so good. ...It was bid at 5000...I should have questioned that right away when David said "its a big basement." It's not, my basement (and house) is 1,200 sq feet. Not a big house in America. Had I thought about it , it was a crazy price. 2 guys for 2 days...do the math and I hope you are paying them well...but that's an exorbitant price for drilling and hinging. I never got a written estimate and I was super busy at the time and traveling. They came in did the job and probably they did it okay, I don't know...what i do know is the job site was a mess...no attempt at clean up, hinges and tools and debris all over the place. (Very unlike the previous job. ) I feel this job was grossly overpriced. Several neighbors have asked if I could recommend you guys and for earthquake retro fit I will say no. I just cannot. Too bad, because the first job you I would give you 5 stars for but absolutely not for Earthquake retrofit. I feel totally ripped off

    Sump Pump Installation to Address Water in Basement

    We were experiencing water coming up from the ground into our basement. The team installed a french drain to a sump pump that ties into the existing above ground drainage system. They disassembled old built in shelves to cut into the cement floor and excavated outside the house to connect the drainage. They also dug out the window well that was not the source of the water but to make sure it will not be in the future. They communicated what they were doing and when they would be finished. It was a two-day job and they finished on schedule. They put the outside back together and were careful with the shelves so we could put them back together. They did a great job of cleaning up both days. And the basement already feels less damp. Thank you!

    Well Done!

    Extremely satisfied with Western Construction Systems. From estimate to invoice, everything was done professionally. The Technician arrived on time, performed the requested work in a timely, proficient manner, and cleaned up before departing. Highly recommend! Jeff S.

    Foundation Leak Solution from the Inside-Out

    We had about 80 feet of foundation wall with varying degrees of water leakage. We broke it up into 4 separate jobs over time. The WCS crews came in each time, friendly and polite, and laid down precautions to protect our home. They worked steadily over a couple days and the water issues were gone. Only in one instance did I ask the crew to return when we learned that a little more effort was needed to "plug and urethane" to make sure, before reinstalling a finish wall over the restored area. It has been a real pleasure to work with everyone (sales, office and onsite crews) to resolve the issues we had for over a decade. I highly recommend WCS for foundation restoration and water proofing.

    job well done

    I had evidence of water seepage in my basement and one support that was not actually supporting the weight of the house. Western Construction Systems made a really reasonable bid (less than another bid I got) and did the work well with a crew of several, so it was efficient and didn't take long. They were careful to not track dirt in the house, and they cleaned up after themselves. Tyler was very responsive and communicative. I would happily use them again!
