Editorial Review
Our Take on MBR Basement Repair
The reviews read like a crew that returns calls, explains the cause, and keeps its work area tidy, which is what matters most when a basement leaks. The thin website and missing license and insurance details mean you should do your own paperwork checks, but the repeat landlord business is a strong sign of trust.

What We Like
- Serving Ohio since 2015 from a staffed office at 2012 Zettler Road in Columbus
- Lists interior and exterior waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, crack repair and wall supports
- Exterior method excavates to the footer, seals the wall and installs footer drain under gravel
- Reviewers describe repeat work on rentals, including sump pumps, I-beams and a replaced basement wall
- Site says all work is guaranteed and consultations and quotes are free
Things to Consider
- Website names no license number, insurance policy, bond or warranty length, so request documents before signing
- Google lists Monday to Friday 8 AM to 7 PM only, although the site header advertises 24 hour service
- Located in southeast Columbus, so it is not a neighborhood shop for far north or west suburbs

Company Background
About MBR Basement Repair
MBR Basement Repair operates from 2012 Zettler Road in Columbus, ZIP 43232, on the city's southeast edge close to Whitehall, Bexley and the Brice Road corridor. Homes in this part of town tend to be older, with block or poured walls that take on water after hard rain, and that is the work this family business takes on. The company's own site says Martinez Basement Repair has served Ohio since 2015. Its services page lists waterproofing, crawl space encapsulation, wall supports with reinforcing beams and anchor plates, crack repair and general basement repair, and the waterproofing page describes exterior work that excavates to the footer, seals the wall with a vapor barrier and tar, then cleans or installs footer drains under gravel. It also names MoxyEpoxy+ as the coating it uses on interior and exterior masonry.
Reviews give more texture than the website does. David described a full foundation replacement on a lot squeezed between two neighbors, and said the crew, which he identified as Miguel with his sister, cousins and father, stayed respectful throughout. Kelsey has used the company for four years on rental properties, names Marcos as her contact, and says the team once added a drainage line trenched under a sidewalk beyond the agreed scope. V Rock reported waterproofing that started on a Tuesday and finished by Friday noon, with the basement covered to limit dust. The rating is 5 from 72 Google reviews, read October 20, 2026.
There are limits worth knowing. The site gives no license number, insurance policy or named staff, and the written warranty that one reviewer mentions is not spelled out online. The website header says 24 hour service, yet Google lists weekday hours only, so confirm that before an after-hours emergency.
MBR Basement Repair suits east side and central Columbus owners who want one crew for drainage, waterproofing and wall repair, and landlords with several properties. It suits less well anyone who wants posted prices, financing or a long list of manufacturer certifications. Before booking, ask for the written warranty terms, proof of insurance and bonding, and the permit plan for structural work. Ohio has no statewide waterproofing trade licence, so check the Ohio Attorney General consumer complaint search, the Ohio Secretary of State business search, and City of Columbus Building and Zoning Services permit lookup.

MBR Basement Repair FAQs
Is MBR Basement Repair licensed in Columbus, Ohio?
Ohio has no statewide licence for waterproofing contractors, and MBR Basement Repair does not publish a license number on its website. One Google reviewer describes the company as licensed, bonded and insured, so ask for proof of insurance and bonding before work starts. You can also check complaints through the Ohio Attorney General consumer complaint search, the business record at the Ohio Secretary of State, and permits through City of Columbus Building and Zoning Services.
What are MBR Basement Repair's hours and do they offer emergency service?
Google lists MBR Basement Repair as open Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 7 PM, and closed on Saturday and Sunday. The company's website header advertises a 24 hour service, but it does not explain how after-hours calls work. Call +1 614-893-3074 and ask directly whether a crew can come on a weekend or overnight before you count on it.
Does MBR Basement Repair offer a warranty, free estimates or financing?
The website says all of its work is guaranteed and offers a free quote and consultation, but it does not state the warranty length or whether it transfers to a new owner. It does not mention financing. The office is at 2012 Zettler Road in Columbus, and the site presents Columbus as its home base, so ask for the warranty in writing before you sign.
Is MBR Basement Repair licensed and insured?
We have no credential records on file for this company yet. Ask for the certificate directly from the insurer before booking work.
What areas does MBR Basement Repair serve?
Columbus. Coverage is as the business describes it, cross-checked against where its recent documented work is. Confirm your address before scheduling, particularly at the edge of a service area.
Does MBR Basement Repair offer emergency service?
Yes, the company lists emergency availability. Response time depends on demand, and after a storm every company in the market is stretched.
What warranty do they offer?
Site states all work and services are guaranteed; length and transferability are not published. There are usually two warranties on a job: the manufacturer covers materials, the contractor covers workmanship. Get both in writing and check whether the workmanship coverage transfers if you sell.
How was this profile built?
