Had not heard of concrete lifting until late last year. Have had settled concrete slabs on our sidewalk along with a settling slab on the walkway to our front door. These were both an eyesore and a hazard (my husband tripped and had a hard fall). Celeste came to the house and proposed a course of action. She explained things and stayed until our questions were answered. We are very happy with the results. When the sidewalk slabs could not be sufficiently lifted because of underlying roots, they replaced the slabs with new concrete at no extra charge! The employees are all very friendly, courteous and responsive.

Great service. Took less than two hours and the driveway now lines up perfectly with the sidewalk that had sunken down.

The experience with JES was phenomenal from start to finish. Brandon and his team (Tyler H, Larry JR, and Roosevelt) were punctual and worked so efficiently. Their communication and customer service were spot on and I am so pleased with their work. I can’t recommend JES enough!

Lynn and his team just finished the job in the basement. The original plan had to be changed as unforeseen circumstances popped up and he worked with us to develop a new solution. The whole team was courteous and kept the work environment clean as possible. We felt we were informed through the whole process and brought us down to the basement to show the progress. I would recommend Groundwork and this Team for any job you need done!!! SB Salina KS 12/04/2024

JaJuan called and asked if it was ok to arrive to the appointment 15 minutes early. When he arrived he was very professional and knowledgeable. After explaining and showing me what was going wrong with my garbage disposal he waited patiently while I contacted my husband to explain what needed to be done. Upon getting approval for the work he waisted no time installing our new garbage disposal. He answered all of my questions and cleaned up after himself. I have always been very pleased with A-1 Sewer and Drain's customer service and quality of work.

Great that I don’t have to remember maintenance visit scheduling. This was my second annual inspection, and Cody McCarter did a great job of explaining what he was doing and looking for any other issues of concern. Would highly recommend.
