"First lets talk about Stabil's business practices. I got 2 quotes to do the job. The first company gave me a quote that was 60% more than Stabil. Now price isn't the only thing that factors in here, it was that Stabil gave me an estimate based off what they thought the amount of polyurethane it would take and told me if it took more the cost per lb. The other company gave me a price I have to believe was for worst case scenario which if it didn't take all the polyurethane they believed it was never mentioned I get a refund. So, because of their honesty and sound business practice I went with Stabil. Now lets move onto the repair. Kevin and TJ showed up on time and started with he pool. Kevin talked to me during the event about the dangers of lifting concrete that include the possibility the pool concrete may not move because of the pedestal under the diving board and the possibility of cracking. He took his time and as the deck started to rise he made sure to bring it up evenly to prevent cracks. the pool was a success. Next was the porch. The porch was cracked in the middle all the way to the sides, where I had 6 separate pieces. Kevin and Tj brought up each section one piece by piece until all 6 sections were some what level. They got it so level it only took 4 bags of concrete leveler to finish the job and you would never know the cracks where there."

"Fantastic job. Double layer of 1 and a half inches of asphalt for total of 3 inches. Extremely pleased."

"The person who provided the estimate was punctual, polite & professional. BUT, we did not choose to work with B-Dry. Here's why...sales tactics, pressure, upselling, price. I did feel a little verbal pressure to commit immediately, (discount for agreeing by end of day of estimate) which was not our plan, we wanted to collect a few estimates & compare. As I compared I noticed a few things that I urge others to consider. They are definitely selling specific products, and using sales tactics. They have their own specially patented drainage "tubes". Its theirs & unique, but folks w engineering backgrounds might tell you what they think of a tube its flat on the bottom & hard plastic without perforation & how well that drains and what slime it could harbor. They only use one sump pump for all jobs which is extremely costly, though it is the most super top of the line pump, but it might not be necessary if your water damage us not extreme & if other aspects of the waterproofing job are done right. While their pump has a lifetime warranty, you could buy a new sump pump every 3 years (unlikely to be required) for a decade or more for the cost of theirs. Lastly and most bothersome was that while their estimate was very high, he looked around my basement & suggested that in the future I might need to do another specific area of wall that may be a concern, and provided me with an estimate of the bigger area if I want to, comparing it to the more urgent job, making it seem like the "cheaper" option. Later, 2 other professionals told me that same area did not suggest damage or need for future work. In the mail I was immediately sent glossy brochures for other systems & products from B-Dry & a sister company. In the end, for about half the price, and less damage to my house, I found an A-rated local company in business for decades with a life of structure warranty that worked more quickly & cleanly than offered by B-dry with quality, guaranteed materials."

"Golden Key showed up on time, performed the work and even gave me tips on how I can repair similar issues in the future!"

"Juan, his son and the rest of the crew did a great job in repairing and installing a16 foot second wall with column to my patio. They also had to remove half of the pavers to re-level the patio and added pavers to fill-in the 3 feet of bed between the house and the patio on the left side of the steps. They were punctual and very professional. They laid down 4x8 plywood from my front driveway around the back of my house for heavier equipment to protect my grass. My wife and I could not be more pleased with the job that they did and plan to have them back next spring to add some lights to the other wall and columns as we really like the one's that they installed on the new wall."

"We were quoted a price of $195 to re-install our existing mailbox on a new post that would look as much like our neighbors' as possible, and we double-checked to be sure that this price included all labor, parts, etc before proceeding. The mailbox was instead mounted on a much thicker, stronger post and we were charged $250. We don't dispute the quality of the work, which looks good (it is all 4x6 whereas everyone else on the block has 4x4). But we wish we had been consulted beforehand about the change in plans and the extra expense."

"Mr. Lopez was very quick to respond with a reasonable quote and scheduled an install date that fit my busy schedule. He arrived on time and did a great job putting my television up on the wall. I appreciate him double checking and working with me for the exact placement of the television. Overall a great job and experience. <br />"

"I had a 50-year-old house with a cinderblock basement wall that had water slowly coming through. I researched the various firms that did waterproofing and had three highly rated firms come out for an estimate. The first contractor didn’t even bring a flashlight and just looked around and said to keep an eye on it. The second gentlemen did provide detailed estimate and carefully explained the problem. Randy, the owner, from Chamberlin Washington provided a similar diagnosis and estimate. His estimate was not only a little less expensive but he looked at the entire house and found other things that could use some maintenance. This is what I liked about Randy – he looked at the whole house and discovered several smaller things that should be fixed to avoid issues down the road. These were all things I knew about already but I’m glad someone took the time to examine the entire house and not just the one issue I was having. We had then not only waterproof the outside wall but also fill the expansion joints in our patio and seal one basement window as well as re-point some mortar joints in the brink chimney. When the crew came they went to work. They also did an admirable job protecting our plants. An old section of of a 6' high stockade fence had to be removed and I bough a new section and the crew was happy to put that up. When they water tested the wall they found a small leak. They re-did the sealant and that did the trick. Randy came out and supervised critical parts of the job. He was great to work with and happily fixed a few small things at the end. Randy really cares about doing the job right. I am 100% pleased with the work they did. I watched over much of the repair and everything was done correct and by the book. Overall I can't say enough about how pleased I was with Chamberlin-Washington and their work. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone."

"If I could use only two words to describe Craig Kripas (owner) I would say trustworthiness and excellence. <br /> He and his workers (foreman Edmondo, and the other three) were hard working, honest, and did an incredible professional job for a fair price. They know their business, (Check out their website, it is educational, allowing you to read up and understand what Craig and crew are going to do to waterproof and make your home safe and healthy), and they do not cut corners on doing it correctly. <br /> I was married to a subcontractor for 18 years, and this is the first professional (Craig Kripas) whose work-ethic and excellence are comparable to my former husband's- who was without equal in his line of work: cabinetmaking and finish. <br /> BEFORE: Craig came and crawled through my crawlspace, took photos, uploaded them unto his laptop, and explained what needed to be done. He sent me an estimate that night via email. My crawlspace had cracks, leaking water, was moist, insulation was wet and falling down, the light plastic that the former owner had laid in the crawlspace was not taped at the seams, and had pools of water where the ground underneath it was not level. There was junk thrown in my crawlspace, no sumppump or electrical hook up, and mold. <br /> AFTER: Craig and crew were able to finish in 3 days, which was a window when the weather held out a little less than that time in early February. They  leveled the crawlspace ground, reinforced any floor supports that needed (in my 1938 bungalow), dug trenches and laid drain and installed the sump-pump, then went on to shovel and level rounded stone gravel (that does not puncture the 6 mil plastic overlay), to make it easy to crawl through. I went and inspected with Edmondo, and crawled through the crawl space. It was clean, dry, and even cozy, although a little clausterphobic for my taste. <br /> They dug window wells, and replaced the old ones, repaired the brick on the exterior around the window wells, repaired the brick around the entrance to the crawl space, built a new hinged hatch and installed it, graded the landscape so that the water ran away from my home, extended the downspouts, and probably a hundred other things that I didn't notice. <br /> OVERALL: I have never been more pleased with work done, as well as their polite, thoughtful approach. (I did not feel pressured in any way, Craig is soft-spoken, and explained and gave me choices on how he could fix the problem/ and costs per task, if I needed to do it in stages or only wanted to do the minimum).  <br /> Kraig Kripas and his crew are professional, trustworthy, do excellent work, and delivered beyond my expectations, which is a difficult thing to do. <br /> <br /> <br />"
