"In January of this year, my wife and I decided we needed to transform our finished basement to an inhabitable living area. That would require adding a bathroom and an egress window for â emergency escapeâ . We hired a contractor for the bathroom and began the research on egress windows. As we were anxious to move ahead ASAP, I began contacting companies that installed egress windows. We had a couple of reps come out, look at our basement, discuss the process and quote prices. Estimates ranged from $8000 to $12000. Most had 2 things in common. 1} They could not schedule the job until somewhere in May or June as â windowsâ wouldnâ t be available until then. 2) Any â finishingâ work (necessary sheet rock and trim) would be extra as they did not do that. In March, I happened upon a copy of a regional advertising magazine (Clipper) which came in our mail. In it was an advertisement for â Basement Gurusâ . Since we still hadnâ t made a commitment for the work, I gave them a call. After discussing the job with them, I came to conclusion to go with â Basement Gurusâ . There were five reasons why I made this decision. 1) It appeared to me, based on reviews, the company had a good reputation. 2) The fact that they had windows in stock. This would move job completion date up significantly over what I had been told by at least three other companies. 3) The price. 4) Excavation would be done manually eliminating the possibility of damage to my neighborâ s lawn. 5) Sheetrock and finishing included. Our egress window project (install/follow up sheetrock/trim) was completed on time. Three workers came to our home for the install. They completed the window in three days. Very efficient, professional. Our township inspector came out a few days later and said â all looked goodâ . Also, John the sheetrock/trim person told me he had done a number of egress finishes. He said this one, as opposed to some heâ d seen, looked really good. The sheetrock and trim was completed in one day. An egress window is a big job. They make alterations to your homeâ s foundation! All in all, Basement Gurus did an awesome job! We now have a really nice â livableâ basement adding significant value to our home. Basement Gurus gets my full recommendation!

"It went well and I no longer have to worry about a water leakage during a heavy rainstorm or snow melting. The work crew was on time each day and made every effort to keep the dust from entering the upstairs. They were very considerate and seemed to enjoy working together. They took pride in doing the job well and informed me of any changes necessary and asked permission to make modifications with my approval."

"I am a senior with a background in construction.  After reviewing many contractors and speaking with some of them, I immediately knew I hit the jackpot when I spoke to Danny.
 
1.  He knew exactly what I needed and wanted done when I first spoke to him.  This entailed the replacement, repair, and installation of the items listed above with attention to quality in materials, prevention of future problems, a fair price, and a commitment to starting and showing up once the job was initiated.  Danny exceeded every expectation in these regards!
2.  I silently knew in advance manufacturers, quality and cost of exterior doors (including the french door), storm doors, door locks and deadbolts, leak-proof door sills for 6 inch exterior walls and a leak-proof barrier on the bottom of the door frames.  Without knowing of my preferences, Danny suggested the identical manufacturers and materials I had in mind.  At this juncture, we met and I hired Danny to perform the work.
3.  I am beyond pleased with the outcome of Danny's effort on this project.  As an example of his integrity, he asked me to trust him in the design and installation of an exterior octagonal window in a bathroom.  My wife and I were literally blown away with a handcrafted symmetrical waterproof tunnel and inside wall frame he created - more akin to an artistic piece than a window.
4. Inside work was always minimally invasive using tarps and soft shoes rather than work boots.  Outside and inside cleanup at the end of each work day was respectfully performed leaving no mess.
I would recommend Danny to anyone requiring any kind of interior or exterior installation, modification, or repair as I have seen firsthand examples of his experience, skills, and personal and business ethics.  In fact, Danny is presently working on costs to replace our roof."

"Excellent wish all my contractors came out this good.  showed up for the estimate on time and had a video that showed the steps to fix the basement.  measured  the basement and made up contract.  when I mentioned angies list and deals offered we built it right into contract without printing coupons and stuff. were quick with availability came out the following week.  foreman (Dan) was on time and double checked everything before starting .Wanted to move sump pump and outside drain to a less used area. not a PROBLEM. Was loud and cold in the house all day as if you run the furnace while they work it comes through the vents.  laid out carpet protectors and were done in only 1 day (the estimator planned 2)  Jackhammered the floor out and dug down to foundation laid new drains and installed new sump pump. they brought 5 people and they all worked hard constantly for the day.  lost track of all the buckets after 30 (5 gal. buckets).removed with old crap.  Explained all the warranties and paperwork with new sump pump.  Have to wait for the concrete to dry. it's now 3 days later and I'm ready to put the basement back together.  Looks great and can't wait to use the basement without wet and damp floors and walls furnace)  did forget to put screen back in basement window but if you have leaky walls and damp floors this is nice.  any problems after the next big rain I'll let ya's know.

"My entire basement was waterproofed over 20 years ago. Water was coming in again, so the salesperson recommended I have the waterproofing on one wall re-done, a vapor barrier installed on that wall, rebar inserted in 3 places inside the wall, cinder blocks in those rows filled with concrete, & a sump pump that was less than a year old - replaced. I was not at all happy with the fact that they required me to replace such a new sump pump in order to get the full warranty on the project. However, I was very impressed by the tons of good reviews I read about this company and the fact that they've been in business for 30 years. I must admit, I was also feeling very good about only having to pay a little over $5,000 to resolve such a scary-looking situation (my block wall was sliding off the foundation)! My relationship with the company really suffered on the first day of the project. Jaime (the project leader) advised me that I should really have the wall reinforced with steel beams, which would cost an "additional" $4,000+, and that I might also want to consider reinforcing a second wall with carbon fiber straps, which would cost another $5,400. Everything he said made sense, considering the looks of things - and I believed him. My issue was, why wasn't that information given to me by the salesperson? It felt very much like a bait and switch situation. By this point, work was in progress and my concrete flooring had been jack-hammered up in front of the worst wall. Considering the costs were now soaring, I said I wanted to get additional estimates to compare with theirs, before having the more extensive work performed. Jaime contacted John (his boss), who insisted they complete all work that had been contracted thus far, including replacing the concrete section of the floor. "Won't the floor have to be jack-hammered up again, in preparation of the steel beam installations," I asked? He confirmed that to be true. I argued that it didn't make sense to spend the time & money pouring the concrete when their crew, or the crew of another company would just have to tear it back up again. He was pretty adamant, but I was even more so, and the floor stayed open while I obtained the other estimates. I realize they wanted to have enough of the work completed to collect payment, which I paid in full, without question. But I really did not appreciate this added stress to an already stressful situation. I did hire Basement Waterproofing Nationwide, Inc. to do the additional work on the worst wall. I still have faith in their expertise, Jaime was very knowledgeable, the crew did great work and really did a good job keeping the mess to a minimum. After all the contention between John and I, we even ended on a good note. I hope Basement Waterproofing Nationwide, Inc., will be more understanding of the customer's position the next time, if they ever encounter such a change in project scope again."

"The job was completed very well and even they adjusted the project to suit some new found issues after digging. Basement is now dry and free of leaks or dampness.  They know what they are doing and the results show it!!!

"Communication with the provider was very spotty -- it took 2 or 3 e-mails before we would get a response but I'm not sure that in the midst of summer when they are at their busiest is a good time to have expected immediately responses.
