"Seepage Issue Prior To Work Done
We had a minor seepage issue in 3-4 areas of our basement.  Minor meaning small puddles of water develop if and only if we get heavy and long rain storms.  The house was built in 1929 and did not have a sump pump or pit.  
Down the road, we plan to finish the basement, eventually my wife and I agreed to commit to fixing the seepage issue and this is where the story starts.  
( Short story: Brian, his crew, and overall integrity is excellent, I highly recommend Crawlspace/Basement Waterproofing Solutions.  They will sell you what you need and they will make sure you are happy.)    Long Story (I recommend reading):
In the beginning......Getting Quotes
I consider myself to be above average DIY person however fixing seepage is not in my skill set.  I had no idea how much money would be required to fix our seepage issue. My expectation was $3000-$4000.
First we had US Waterproofing out.  They sent a salesman which for me is an immediate turn off.  The salesman was okay but not impressive....to be honest more then a little rough.  In the end, he gave us a quote that was $8000.00.  This was surprisingly and uncomfortably large sum of money plus in my opinion, the proposed seepage solution was in my opinion a solution for a severe seepage problem.  My opinion, up selling; selling me too much. Side note, they did offer financing options that were good.  
 (total time at least 1.5 hours)  
With the US Waterproofing quote in hand, for the next 1-2 week my wife and I continued to discuss the situation.  I was really bummed about the 8k.  Eventually, I got my head together and thankfully did not commit to US Waterproofing.  Instead we put their quote aside and called Perma-Seal.
Perma-Seal came out.  Another salesman another immediate turn off.  However, the salesman was great.  He gave a very impressive presentation that covered the company, recommended products to solve our seepage issue, and what the process would be to solve our seepage issue.  In the end, he first proposed a solution that was super over the top, I believe it was $10,000.00.  After reminding him money is tight and I want a solution for the specific areas of the basement, his second proposed solution was $7900.00.  Not good.  Too much money and my gut feeling continued, up selling; selling to much.  Side note, they did offer financing options that were good however it was simply to much money to commit to.  (total time at least 1.5 hours)
With US Waterproofing quote and Perma-Seal quote in hand and little depression (on my part), my wife and I took another 1-2 weeks to talk.  I almost committed to a quote but thankfully I did not.  Eventually I got me head together again.  I joined Angie's List.  Reviewed the basement seepage businesses in the area by rank and found Crawlspace/Basement Waterproofing Solutions ranked #2.  This was a bit exciting.  I read a few reviews and got even more excited, there was 1 or 2 reviews that seemed to reflect my situation; everyone wants to sell me cashmere when I am confident I only need cotton. 
So I called Crawlspace/Basement Waterproofing Solutions.   Brian the owner and crew chief (immediately impressed) came over to inspect and propose a solution/quote. He gave us a quote for exactly what we needed and it was quick and easy.   Side note, I did tell him I had the other two quotes but I did not show or tell him the numbers and did not tell him our money is tight.  His quote $2800.00.  WOW!  (total time: 40 min)
My wife and I were so happy however I was a bit worried, two businesses quote me $8000 and this guy wants $2800?!?!.  To be clear, the $2800 was for installing a sump pump it, sump pump, the drainage system from pit to outside, drainboards on the walls, trench and install drain tile inside basement, concrete the drain tile inside basement, and cementing my ugly/nasty crawlspace.  His work comes with a warranty for the life of the home and is transferable to the next owner. 
After committing to Brian, 4 days later he arrived with his crew as scheduled.  The crew completed the project in 1.5 days as planned.  During the 1.5 days I closely monitored the crew's work and chatted with them.  Additional, I had a few long chats with Brian.  The entire team is excellent.  Happy, polite, personable, and hard working.  I was very impressed with the team.  When the work was completed, Brian called be twice to ensure we where happy with the work.  There was a very minor cosmetic issue that I mentioned.  Brian immediately setup a guy to come out in 1-2 business days.......the minor issue was fixed (no charge).
Since the completion, we have had 3 long extra heavy rain storms.  No water in basement!  YES!  Wife and I are very happy.
Additional Notes About Brian and His Guys:
Extra work was done and we were not charged.
Brian is personable, 100% kept all promises, sold us what we needed, fun, and maintains a hard working and happy team.
Call Brian!  Do it!

"I walked into my basement on Saturday afternoon to discover a pool of water on the floor.  Looking at the walls I traced it back to right above the window that sits below my kitchen sink.  I popped the paneling off the top of the window box and immediately saw that the galvanized pipe leading from the sink drain to the stack had corroded and a hole had formed.  Frantic because it was 4pm on a Saturday and I knew I couldn't use my kitchen sink or dishwasher until I got this fixed (no easy task with two toddlers to keep up with), I jumped onto Angie's List looking for a plumber with Saturday hours and a good rating. 
I called McDonagh and was told they could have someone at my place in an hour.  Todd showed up at 5:30 and immediately got to work.  Patrick (the owner) showed up with his son Nolan shortly thereafter to take a look and get Todd some parts off of his truck.  We gave Nolan a piece of the pizza my kids were having for dinner as an apology for interrupting his Saturday too.  Patrick came back with a price estimate that seemed fair to me for emergency short-notice service on a Saturday night.  Todd replaced the entire section of pipe from the sink drain to the stack and was finished and out the door by 7:30, leaving us with a fully functional kitchen again. 
Huge thanks to Patrick and Todd (and Nolan) who really saved the day for us.  These guys are absolute professionals and really saved us from some major inconvenience.  Would absolutely recommend and use them again.

"Dimitri did a very good job on our hallway. He managed to paint a very tight corner without getting any grey paint on our newly installed white trim. He has a very steady hand with the brush. The grey paint did bleed through the tape onto the baseboard trim in a couple locations but he made certain to repaint the trim and not just leave it up to us to fix. That was very professional of him.

"Basement Seepage Solutions was my fifth quote. I almost canceled because I was sick of getting quotes and all the big companies charge about the same $70-90 per foot of drain tiles. Matthew's company beat these quotes hands down. He charges $50 a foot plus $10 off a foot for Angies list members (a savings of $1000 for me.). This company beat the next lowest quote by $3,600 so this was a no brainer. Matthew's company did excellent work. They were on time and professional and communicated with me the entire time. Also, Matt is on site during the process and is not just a sales man who comes for a quote then sends out a crew. The job took two days mainly due to the Villages inspection schedule. But I think this is preferable over the big companies that want to do it all in one day but are in your house from 8-8. Highly recommend if you need any sort of basement work done"

"Scott called right away,made an appointment to come out and give me an estimate to install my gas line. He came out 2 days later,installed my gas line and had everything up and running in a couple hours. Very professional and courteous. I highly recommend."

"In the middle of a powder room remodel, it was noted that the toilet valve was leaking and could not be shut off completely. In addition, there were pressure valves rather than shut-off valves leading to the sink in the vanity. Oscar came over within 15 minutes and fixed both of these issues in about a half an hour, allowing the renovation to continue without delay.
