Susan and I want to thank you again for your willingness to get to our job so quickly. The window well work you did solved our water problem, it looks great and your timing allowed us to move quickly onto other projects. You and your work are appreciated. .

Hi Dave- Just wanted to let you know that your team got a very nice compliment today. Our lawn care guy was here this afternoon, and he told me, "The guys that did your window wells did an amazing job of protecting the lawn!" He said that usually, things are just a mess when that work has been done, the grass is all torn up and dead, there are ruts, etc. But with ours, he couldn't even tell you had been there, "I don't know how they protected it so well." So thanks so much for the care you took doing my job.

A big THANK YOU to A+ Skidloader Services for the work you did at our home! Dave answered a lot of questions before work ever started and I really appreciated when he told us that while he would be happy to replace some large egress wells for us, they really were in good shape for now and could wait if we preferred. You always hope for that kind of honesty but don’t always get it. The work that A+ did for us was completed quickly, is well-done, and we’re very happy with it. We’ll definitely recommend you!

You did a job for us on Madison Court (it is in your blogs on your website) roughly four years ago. Prior to your work, we were having constant problems with water getting into the north side of our basement, as well as water pooling up outside of the house on the north side. I just wanted to let you know that in the four yours since you finished the job, we have not had a single drop of water come into the basement, and we have had some really heavy rains in the last four years! In addition, we are not having any problems with water pooling up outside the north side of the house. So, job well done! We are very pleased.

We appreciate the communication and job updates, and please tell your crew they were awesome. Their understanding of what to do, how and when to do it, and how to make things even better was a real positive. Also, they were polite, congenial, and hard-working, and not afraid to talk with me. We've already had compliments on your work and have shared your info with those who've asked. It's a cliche to say one's work speaks for itself; in this case, it's absolutely true. Thank you for working with us throughout the past few weeks, including moving the trucks on that last day 🙂

So happy with this project, that mess in the backyard had bugged me ever since we bought the house. It’s such a relief to have it so nicely done now, and it has definitely exceeded our expectations! I also wanted you to know that a complete stranger rang the doorbell last night to ask me who had done that work because she thought it looked so good. She had walked by on the path and had seen it.. She obviously lives in the neighborhood, but I had never seen her before! I gave her your name and number and I hope she calls you! I just ordered two hydrangeas and three cranberry-colored dianthus to go in front of the tree. I’ll send you more pictures once those are in!

We were out of town a couple weeks ago when we got that big rain. When we got home, it was so nice to be able to go downstairs to our basement to see a dry basement and window. Thanks you for helping us out and doing what you do.

You're probably getting a lot of calls from people with water issues from all the storms, so I just wanted to write and say thanks again for the job you did for us back in 2014. I was a bit worried when we had this last storm, and even with all the rain and our gutters getting overwhelmed for a bit, we had only a very small amount of seepage in the unfinished part of the basement. I never heard the sump pump run at all. You guys did a fantastic job. We're moving to a new place soon, and if we need any work done there, we'll be sure to call you.

I wanted to take a minute to tell you how happy I am with the job you and the crew did. The main thing that motivated all of this for me was I knew it would be lower maintenance in the future. But, I didn’t anticipate how much better it would look, that such a nice bonus! I love the look of the rock over the mulch. Definitely peace of mind knowing the slope has been adjusted, and that should help to keep things dry for years to come. I’ve dealt with a lot of different crews over the past couple years. We remodeled the kitchen and the master bath, as well as other bits and pieces, so I’ve worked with electricians, plumbers, carpenters, drywall teams, painters, tile layers, you name it! Your team was by far the most professional, the friendliest, and the one that clearly took the most pride in their work. The guys that work for you do you proud, they are great at what they do and very personable. It’s a testament to your leadership of them, that they approach the work and the customer that way. Thanks for all the great work you did!
