Get matched with top foundation drainage installers and replacers in Dublin, PA

"They came in with their team and went right to work. Only a portion of the basement needed to be waterproofed. They drilled out a 10-inch wide portion of the concrete floor, put stones, pipe, more stones and re-concreted that portion of the floor. Painted that wall with waterproof paint leaving me the rest of the painting to do (my choice). Drilled a hole at the bottom of each cinderblock which drained into a grey baseboard material which then drained into the pipe and flowed into the sump pump. Replaced the old basement window and placed concrete around it. Installed a sump pump, placed the pipe through the wall, placing the water exit pipe into a flower bed. Adding a circuit breaker dedicated to the sump pump. They described everything they were going to do prior to the job and everything they did at the completion of the job. Also, explaining how the sump pump worked. The total cost was $4200.00. The best part they cleaned up after. Oh and before they did anything they placed plastic all around so as not to ruin anything in the basement. I did not have to lift a finger."

"This work took place in my parents' basement, which is filled with decades' worth of stuff.  We'd always had water in the basement after heavy rains.  Sometimes it was just a matter of a damp floor or a puddle in one corner, but other times there was so much standing water that they could fill and empty a large Shop Vac more than once.  After years of my parents coping with the water themselves, we are preparing to sell the home, and we knew that buyers might be scared away by a damp/wet basement.  So I researched local basement waterproofing companies on Angie's List, and after obtaining two quotes from highly regarded companies, we decided to hire AJ.  

On the appointed day, AJ and crew arrived on time and immediately got to work moving items away from the walls.  They wrapped the items in the center and the stairway leading up to the main floor of the house to prevent dust intrusion.  They temporarily installed fans to blow out dust  while using the jackhammer.

They chiseled out a trench, neatly channeled around two water tanks next to the wall, hauled out the broken concrete, and drilled holes in the cinderblock foundation for the water to drain into the trench.  They set the perforated PVC drain pipe and backfilled with crushed stone, installed a membrane on the wall to direct any other water into the trench, installed a sump pump, and installed plumbing to discharge water to the outside of the home.  All of this took several hours.  I didn't watch every step of the process, but they called me downstairs to show me their progress after having sprayed down the walls with an antimicrobial substance.  At that point they were in the process of backfilling over the crushed stone bed with concrete.  The concrete work was neatly done and the crew cleaned up all the plastic sheeting they had used.  

It seemed to me that the crew worked efficiently together.  There didn't seem to be any lag time because there were always multiple tasks being completed at the same time.  I think that's how the entire job could be completed in one day.  It's a relief to finally have this problem addressed and I feel confident that this basement will not have water intrusion problems anymore.  "

"Excellent all around experience!!!!!!!! After a series of storms and gradual water soaking our basement carpet several times, I finally called Waterproofing One in April, 2017 after seeing their ad several times on our St. Basil's church bulletin. I spoke initially with the owner-Joe who was helpful and he dispatched Dave Cook who came over within an hour. Dave Cook has been in this business and related utility engineering previously for over 30 years and really knows his stuff. Dave was extremely thorough, spending time in the basement, looking at some pictures I took of the damage and spent a considerable amount of time walking around the exterior of my property and reviewing the landscaping where most problems start. Dave wrote up a report of what work was needed including extending downspouts, recommending we have our contractor add a louvered door at the top of the steps for aeration (a great idea given no windows in basement) , waterproofing the well water closet walls, spraying impacted area for potential mold, and installing a new French drain and sump-pump system with battery backup. Gene and his crew then came over on May 17, 2018 and performed the construction and installation work and did a great job. Those guys worked extremely hard in what is inherently a muddy line of work and were very courteous, professional and left the basement very clean. Gene took extra time to show us exactly what they were doing as they drilled holes into the lower cinder block walls, laying of the perforated pipe and some of the damp mold on the wooded studs he extracted at the impacted area. We paid exactly what Dave originally quoted! Dave Cook came back checked on things and made some other recommendations including adding stones around the foundation outside and in holes to avoid soil erosion and soften the acceleration of rain water into the ground. Once the work was finished and our carpenter redid the walls and painting, We had subsequently refinished the basement with high end vapor/mold resistant padding from Mohawk and a quality polyester carpet. 15 months later and here we are on September 30, 2019 after 50+ rain storms since installation and NO WATER nor Mold issues in the basement!!! We are really enjoying our basement again thanks to WATERPROOFING ONE!!!! 5-STARS!!!!!!!!"

"As a homeowner, realizing you need basement waterproofing, mold remediation, potential foundation repairs, an additional sub pump AND a method to block moisture can be incredibly overwhelming, specifically finding a qualified trustworthy waterproofing and remediation company near me, thankfully I was connected with Basement Gurus. Living in the Philadelphia, New Jersey and Delaware area there were countless companies available, though shortly after putting in a request, the installation manager promptly contacted me and continued to make herself very accessible throughout the entire project. Her effective communication and patience guided me through the entire installation process and follow up. When faced with a wet basement, it is essential to choose a company which is knowledgeable, skilled, and thorough, Basement Gurus exemplified all of these qualities. There crew arrived on time each day and tirelessly worked until EVERYTHING was done to their quality standard, this hard work while putting in the time and effort is rarely found these days, I am glad Basement Gurus hires waterproofing specialists and contractors who clearly take great pride in a well-done job.

"This company did a first class job solving a basement foundation water infiltration problem in our commercial office building in Upper Bucks County, PA. A project manager came out to assess our situation; he came up with a proposed solution on the spot, provided us with a written proposal and sample photos of other similar work they had done. The work required excavating a small portion of the foundation on the exterior and filling a crack in the foundation wall down to the footers. The crew came out as scheduled and completed the job in a single day as predicted. Some follow up tweaks were needed, and I'm happy to say that the customer service team and follow up crew responded promptly and made some necessary adjustments to button up the job as promised. This is a first class operation and I do not hesitate to recommend this outfit to other colleagues and property owners needing this service."

"Travis went above and beyond to deliver great service. He took pictures of what he saw going on in the crawl space. He patiently and carefully explained those issues to me. He is very knowledgeable. When it’s time to service the dehumidifier next year, I will be sure to ask for him."

"We chose Plymouth Landscaping because we have worked with them before and have always been completely happy. This time was no different; they did a terrific job. The crew (Jose, Arturo and Bulmaro) started on a Monday. They began work on time and worked efficiently and quietly. At the end of every day they left the front of the house as neat as a pin. Old shrubs had to be removed, as did the old front steps and walk, and they had this completed by the end of the first day. They blocked off the front door and entrance to the walk so that no one could make a mistake and get injured. During the project, there were several days of rain -- and here I want to mention the owner of the company, Joe, because his communication with us was excellent. During the days of bad weather, we knew when the crew was coming and when they weren't; we didn't have to rely on the weather to tell us, or make us guess. During the rainy days, the walkway remained very neatly blocked off. Once the weather improved, the crew finished the work just as efficiently and quietly as they began it. They also weeded the beds around the house, which improves the look of things quite a bit. I want to mention Joe again for two reasons. One is that he designed the top step to make it safer for a family member who uses a cane. He put the top step at the level of the doorstep, eliminating a potential trip hazard. The other reason is that he redesigned the drainage from one of our gutters so that rainwater and snow melt now disperse into the yard, as opposed to draining on the driveway, which in winter always left a hazardous patch of ice. This wasn't actually part of the project but he saw a problem and took steps to fix it. I would also like to mention that Jose, Arturo and Bulmaro were very friendly and thoughtful. Every day that they were here they brought our newspapers to the back door, which was very helpful. Even such a small gesture shows the kindness of the crew, and reflects the character of Joe, the man who hired them."

"My basement was getting wet every time it rained.. I called and was able to have an inspector come out right away for a free estimate. Everyone was so nice and very professional. I now have a dry basement! I would highly recommend them if you are in need of any waterproofing or foundation services!"

"I can't say enough good things about J&A. From start to finish they were professional, responsive and caring. John explained everything they were doing and why they were doing it. Some of the techniques involved with mold remediation are extremely technical and they were able to simplify it for me so I understood exactly what they were doing and how it was making me and my family safer. Knowing that I was waiting on the mold remediation before I could have a plumber come in and fix a broken pipe in my crawl space, they sent out double the normal crew size so they could get everything done in time for the plumber to then do his work. All 7 members worked like the most efficient team I had ever seen and we started feeling safe almost immediately. They brought in all of this fancy equipment and yet cleaned up the place way better than it had looked before they got there. If I could give them an A plus plus I would and If I ever have a problem again or can use any of their other services I wouldn't hesitate even a second before calling them. I can't thank them enough and while I hope none of my neighbors get any mold or need any other type of remediation, if they did I would recommend J&A without hesitation."

"I called American Drain about a problem with my pool. They were able to help me discover the problem on my own. They clearly went over their pricing and practice. I would use them in the future but hope I won't have to!
