Review from Oakland, CA - Analyze a Soil Issue (Soil Testing)
4.83Project: Analyze a Soil Issue (Soil Testing) City: Oakland, CA
"I contacted Kamran Ghiassi at GEC for a consultation regarding a soil erosion problem underneath the foundation to my house. Kamran visited promptly on a Saturday, quickly assessed the situation, and confidently prescribed a solution. Although he could have charged extra for a write-up, Kamran drew some diagrams on the spot and patiently explained what needed to be done so I could move forward with a contractor. He also graciously accepted a couple of calls from both my contractor and myself for additional clarification as the project evolved. Knowledgeable, professional and friendly - I highly recommend GEC!"
