Basement Waterproofing Customer Testimonial from Richard M. in Farwell, MI

I bet he spent close to a hour down there making sure everything was going to be right the first time.  In my years of police work I have never seen an actual inspection done as completely as what Carl did.  After he was done, his price was higher than [the Ayers competitor] and he thanked me for the opportunity to have a chance to quote on the job.

 

Later that afternoon he asked if he could talk to us again. He explained that he lived nearby and that our daughters went to school together. That made me feel a little more comfortable. When all was said and done he took the existing contract and sat at our table for around a half an hour and matched [the Ayers competitor's] price and I included a sump basin. We decided to go with Ayers because if they have people working with the same integrity as Carl, then I had a gut feeling that Ayers was the way to go. I called back [the Ayers competitor] and stopped payment on the check as they didn't recieve it yet and they said no problem that the check would be mailed back as it was not cashable anyway.

 

When everything was over, my family went down to the basement to start tearing out the wet carpet. Instead of going home after the deal, Carl came down and for more than an hour he helped tear up the carpet on his own time. I mean off-the-clock and helping. I couldn't believe it.  When he was done and he was no longer a worker, I wanted to give him some money and he would not take it as raising kids and a family is not cheap. No matter what we did, the money was not accepted. He said he works for Ayers and his loyalty is with them and just didn't feel right even though he was off work.

 

I hope and pray that Ayers have the same type of pride and excellent work ethic as Carl as we just could not afford to have this done again. Please tell Carl our hearts go out to him and to Ayers for exceeding everything I expected. My son is a State Senator and I told him the story and he was impressed. On behalf of the Miller family, thank you Ayers and a special thanks to Carl.
