Business ProfileforCincinnati Basement Waterproofing & Drainage

We hired Cincinnati Basement Waterproofing & Drainage to install a French drain in our backyard. They came and performed the work, but while doing so they damaged our 8ft double gate on our brand new fence. I watched from the window as they (owner (Gil B******) and workers) tried to bend it back with their small excavator to no avail. When the work was completed, the worker showed me the work and said they hit our fence and that "it looks better than it did". I told them I would like for them to fix the damage. The worker contacted Mr. B******, who had left already, and said to write on the invoice, “bill for fence”. After the crew left, I tried to put the gates back up so our dog couldn't get out. The gates were so mangled I couldn't even attach them to the posts. I guess that's why the crew left the gates against the house. I contacted the guy who installed our fence and he had replace our entire 8ft aluminum gate and posts that were set in concrete which came to $1,000. I sent Mr. B****** the bill and was told by him he could've "had it installed 1/3 of that. he definitely took advantage of that". I have texted Gil every month since then asking for an update and have been given every imaginable excuse as to why he hasn’t paid. This has gone on for a year. I have been MORE than patient and understanding.
