t. We juggled work and medical obligations so we could have someone present during the installation. Acculevel's crew didn't show up, and no one let us know they wouldn't be showing up. At that point, we requested a refund. One of the reasons we chose this company was its five-year warranty. Given that we couldn't get the equipment installed when they only had half our money, we no longer felt the warranty had value. The person at the scheduling department said a manager would contact us to walk us through the refund process. The manager never contacted us. A week later, we sent an email detailing our attempts to get this project completed and the lack of responsiveness from Acculevel. Again, there was no response to the email or the request for a refund. It is now six months since we signed the contract, and the job has not been completed, our money has not been refunded, and the company has not responded to our request for a refund.Business Response

The company has responded to my email and plans to suggest a resolution by Monday. So this is neither an acceptance or rejection at this time.*lace the band board and add some concrete outside.We still had our leak. Another *** from the company did finally come out and said the foundation wall where the leak is needs to be rebuilt at our expense ar around $1200 per sqft. Had this been the original recommendation we would have done that rather than install their waterproofing ********* addition, our rehab crew have now discovered the seal plate on the opposite side of the house Is completely rotted. Obviously the company didn't really inspect our foundation. This no doubt will cost us several thousand more but Acculevel will definitely not be called to do the work. The company will not return our calls or emails. This was a scam!Business Response

We want to address your concerns as transparently as possible.
When our team initially inspected your home in November 2024, we focused on the immediate issue you were facinga leak in the basement. Based on our assessment, we recommended a basement waterproofing system to manage water intrusion effectively. However, as the project progressed, it became clear that additional structural issues, including the need for proper drainage and repairs beyond the interior system, were contributing to the leak.
Foundation concerns, such as a failing wall or rotted seal plates, are serious and often require more extensive structural repairs. While our team attempted to mitigate the issue, it became evident that rebuilding the wall was necessarysomething we would have recommended upfront had we identified it as the primary issue during the initial inspection. We understand how frustrating it must be to learn about additional repairs after making a significant investment, and we apologize for any miscommunication or delays in responding to your outreach.
Acculevel takes customer satisfaction seriously, and we never intend for anyone to feel unheard or misled. If youre open to it, wed like to discuss this further and work toward a resolution. Please contact our customer care team at *********************************** and we will ensure your concerns are addressed promptly.
We truly appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to improve.Customer Answer

ID ********
The response to my complaint which was basically an apology did not satisfy my request for a resolution. Through negotiation with Acculevel however, we were able to agree on a partial refund of $6000 of my payment of $17000.
For anyone reading this please learn from my mistake. Make sure a thorough inspection of your foundation is done before agreeing to having the basement waterproofing done. The waterproofing does not identify or fix the cause of the problem. It simply routes the water through a drainage system to the sump pump. In our case that was unnecessary. The leak needed to be analyzed and fixed at its source.Regards,

Mr.J from Acculevel came out to our house today (3/26) to look at everything thing that had been done (and not done) along with some issues that already needed to be refixed. He was very nice and listened to us. He said that he needed to talk to their team to see what can be done to fix/or not with the issues that we talked about. We told him we just want things to be made right. He said that hopefully Friday we would hear something back from him on this. So this issue is not resolved yet but in progress.

My aunt and I contacted Acculevel to come out and waterproof my basement in July 2024. After getting the quote of 18k we decided to proceed with the work being done as I was selling the house and it needed fixed. When they finished the first time no final walk through was done and the basement still leaked. ***** came out and took pictures and said he would get with his manager to resolve the issues. (He never did and lied to us several times) As the basement continues to leak I reached out again so they came back and tapped the walls. (Still leaks) so they came back and looked at it again and stated that they will have them come out again and fix the issue. They came out and put a dehumidifier in my basement and left. Called back again as the basement is still leaking and they came and completed ripped out the fast track draining system as they installed it wrong and it wasnt connected (have pictures of this).. after not being able to sell my house for 6 months due to dealing with this company coming in and out while trying to have house showings and people not wanting to buy it due to the basement not being properly done, I asked for a discount of 5k or more (preferably a complete refund). **** the manager told me he would only give me 1k off.. I asked to speak with his manager in regards to the discount offered and he told me that would not be happening and hung up the phone. To this day Im still dealing with the company and a leaky basement. I would NEVER recommend this basement company to anyone else.Business Response

I had Acculevel come assess a sagging floor at my house. ******* ******* was our salesperson, and it felt like he took advantage of there being a disabled person living at the house and created a sense of urgency and pushed us into making a quick decision, and ultimately we signed a contract that day to install a steel I-beam where the sagging was occuring. A condition of that contract was that ********** would come back out in 6 months and jack up the floor more after it had settled. That should have been 4 months ago, and I did not hear from Acculevel until I reached out to them. I have left dozens of messages, for **** and **** at the office, and for my salesperson ******* *******. I have on three occasions been able to contact ****, and he always says he will let the office know and call me right back, which is not the case. Acculevel needs to take accountability for their work and follow up on it.Business Response

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined the response would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.
I have asked, on several occasions, to be supplied a written estimate for repairs. Instead acculevel broke off communications. What concerns me is 1. I was told (by the representative) acculevel knew the crawlspace needed a drain and pump but did not discuss this option with the owners. 2. If another company completes the work, the warranty could be voided. 3. I do not trust acculevel will give a fair price for the repair that should have been done or discussed with recommendations during the original contract.
Regards,
** *********-*****
he ***air a 2 months after moving in. I have contacted the company on several occassions. I asked for a written estimate several times. I asked if I could have another company fix the problem, the response was "as long as it doesn't interfere with warrantied work" in order to fix the problem, another company would have to mess with the encapsulation! This puts me at the mercy of AccuLevel. Since then, Acculevel does not respond and has not given a written estimate to complete what they should have fixed during the first ***air. The previous owners are saying Acculevel presented them with a promise to fix the water problem and never told them the crawlspace also needed a drainage and sump pump system. For $60,000, it should have been included. The Acculevel *** never came back to reseal the encapsulation he pulled back and to date, have NOT given a written estimate for the ***air. Other companies are unwilling to do the ***air stating it may void the warranty.Business Response
Date: 02/17/2025
We appreciate the opportunity to clarify the situation. The work completed by Acculevel was contracted and agreed upon by the original homeowner, and all services outlined in that contract were completed and paid for in full.
Our team thoroughly assessed the issue you reported and determined that the pooling water in the crawlspace is unrelated to the work originally contracted. While we strive to be as transparent as possible during consultations, we can only address the specific scope of work agreed upon at the time of service.
We apologize for any miscommunication and understand your concerns regarding obtaining additional repairs. We remain open to discussing solutions and providing a written estimate should you wish to proceed with further work. If you would like to revisit your options, please email me directly @ ********************************** and I will have an estimate created that will work in conjunction with your original warranty from the original work that was completed.
Our goal is always to provide quality service and long-term solutions, and we regret that your experience has not met expectations. Please feel free to reach out directly so we can work toward a resolution.I have attached the original agreement that shows a diagram breakdown of the work that was agreed upon.

Date: 02/20/2025
We understand your concerns about the crawlspace and the options that were discussed during the initial contract. Our team strives to be transparent about all available solutions that we uncover at the time of the initial inspection which was communicated to the original homeowner which was based on our inspection of the home at that time.
We also understand your worries about the warranty and the potential impact of working with another company. Please know that any work done by a third party could affect the warranty, but we are happy to discuss your options further to ensure you're comfortable with the solutions we offer.
In regards to the written estimate, we are committed to providing clear and fair pricing, and you should have received a written estimate which was provided to you by our Service Manager ****. Our goal is always to build trust with our customers and provide the highest level of service.
Please continue to work with **** and he will update your account in the system as to what our next steps will be.Customer Answer

Acculevel has finally sent a written estimate. If another company can make the repair for less, AccuLevel will (potentially) void the warranty. Acculevel has created an unfair advantage. Acculevel is forcing their customers to use their services.The contact person said they will call me back to discuss the pricing after talking to another agent. I am waiting for that call.
