    Complaint: ********



    I am rejecting this response because:



    Sincerely,



    ****** *******

    Contract states "Backfill basement to existing grades" this grading job has horribly  failed. Backfill = soil, right? Although we accounted for soil settling, we did not expect a sinkhole, even worse a low spot feeding water into said sinkhole. We feel this displays subpar work and negligence on behalf of Rausch 

    Contract states "Grade site to promote damage"  One area is not draining due to poor grading. The water then flows to the sinkhole and creates a bigger debacle.

    Contract states again: "Grade site to promote damage" The parking pad area is a lake during a rain. Because your guy took all the gravel out and failed to "Grade site to promote damage"

    Bottom line up front, we will pursue this through other means. You ignoring us through phone calls and email is enough. 
     

    p soil.

    As seen in the signed contract Rauch states "Grade site to promote drainage" and as seen this was an absolute failure. Also "Backfill basement to existing grades" again, this has failed.

    It's fair to say that some settling may occur and we expected that, but this was not how it was supposed to have gone.

    I tried repeatedly to contact SRI by email and other means and have been ignored.

    If no recourse, may pursue other means
