Kyle was extremely professional and helpful. His advice was invaluable because we didn’t know where to begin. We will likely be using this business after we complete a few preparatory steps he recommended.

Andy was extremely professional and helped me understand how and why water was entering my basement. He provided a wealth of information and conducted a thorough inspection. This was, by far, the most informative inspection I've ever experienced.

I highly recommend this company. The contractors did a beyond excellent job at explaining the problems with my basement and throughly explained how they planned to fix it. The whole process went smoothly and every employee I talked to was kind, professional, and showed a willingness to help. They also offer financing options which were a huge help.

We just finished our waterproofing installation. WOW! Miguel A did an outstanding job leading Luis S and Gerso G. They were amazing installers! They were kind and polite and helpful. They cared about my belongings in the basement. They did a lot of hard work in one day to be ready for the city inspector the next morning. They cemented and cleaned up the next afternoon. A lot of good work was accomplished timely due to their dedication. Miguel also did an excellent job communicating with me about the job itself, how the system & sump pump work, and maintenance. They are a top notch crew! Thank you!!!!
