Everybody’s I dealt with was great - from the salesman to all 4 guys doing the work. They put in a drain tile system, with a sump pit and sump pump. We’re happy with the results so far.

Our rep, Keegan King phoned when he was about 30 min away. Introduced himself and explained what he was going to do for the annual sump pump inspection. He was very friendly with our 4 little kids who were home at that time. He identified a few other problems and asked if I wanted a quote on repairs for those. Before giving the quote he reviewed exactly what the quote was for, he has excellent communication skills and makes sure that everyone is in the same page. He was very professional. I would highly recommend.

I had James Heath a my tech today. This was my annual maintenance for my sump pump. James was thorough and explained step by step what he was looking for, what he found and what to anticipate throughout the life of my entire pump system. He will be the one I will personally ask for when it comes to pump service/sales.

PermaSeal is the Best. The consultant clearly explained the options for my project, the scheduling and cost. The installers were on time, explained questions I had about the basement crack sealing and Permafoam installation , completed the project in a timely manner and were friendly. This is the second project PermaSeal has completed for me. I would call them again, for sure.

My living room floor over the crawlspace was always cold in the winter. The Perma-seal salesman said spray foam would fix it. After spending a LOT of money to have it done, there is no change. The floor is still cold! They are not honest people. Also, I have two vents at each end of crawlspace that I open in the Spring to dry up any dampness. I found out that they sprayed foam over these vents closing them off . Now I am thinking I will get mold growing down there because of no air circulation. Terrible company! I would never recommend them!

Nick and Gus installed a hot water tank. They were amazing - so thorough and professional. They explained the process involved and went above and beyond checking to make sure all faucets and tub were working properly after shutting off the water. Also, they took the time to explain to me how to understand the way my battery operated sump pump works with technology. Fantastic workers!

Had Permaseal come out for an estimate on new sump pumps. Derek Hall gave me a variety of options and explained which ones would work best for my basement. He even took the time to explain the whole thing again to my wife who was on a work call at the time.

The house had water penetration and the inspector wasn’t sure how or where. Perma-Seal was contacted to professionally figure it out. The Perma-Seal inspector Robert Barshefski came in and explained to the buyers exactly what was the cause of the issue. It was water penetrating from the sliding door. It is a simple fix of just caulking the sliding door. There was no upsell or expensive remedy that was not needed. Highly recommend Robert, he has vast experience and really knows his business. He also tested and showed the buyer that a sump pump is working that the home inspector thought was not working.

Excellent! Adam, Tyler and Javier are great guys and do great work! Concrete repair (drop of over 4”) between patio and house. Repair was needed for over 30 years! Finally made the call to Permaseal. Timing was perfect because we will be able to pass guarantee along to next homeowner when we retire in 4 years!
