Recent Basement Waterproofing Reviews in Gowen
- Foundation Systems of MichiganMichael Brooks and his associate came on time for a schedule basement inspection. They were very thorough and explained their findings and advice. They also explained financing options. We decided on the AquaStop Basement Triple Sump Pump fitted to the existing drain tile. With a deposit on the day of inspection, we were also able to finance the remainder of the cost, which helps us get through tax time. On the day of the install, Jacob called as promised to advise us of their estimated arrival time. The crew, Jacob, Dustin, Cesar, and Jaden, were efficient and responsive to questions. They explained all they had done and how each control worked. And best of all, they left the basement super clean after the work was done. Well done, guys, and well done FSM. Thanks for the peace of mind
- Foundation Systems of MichiganVery well. Workers were great. They were successful in repairing the all the damage caused by another shoddy waterproofing company. So far, very satisfied.
- Montell ConstructionThe job was done very well. The sales estimate and negotiations with Chad were pleasant. The financial deal through EnerBank was painless and confidence-inspiring (EnerBank acts like an escrow account, that wouldn't pay Montell or bill us until we gave the OK). There was a typical long quiet period while we waited for the job to start, but it wasn't too long and we did get a friendly update when we asked. The first job was done by an experienced builder who could have rebuilt our house from the ground up. He worked hard and late over two days, cleaned up after himself and was all around good company. A week or so later, the gutter crew arrived and cranked out great new gutters in a half day. The promised roof flashing was overlooked, but our call was well-received and the work was completed a few days later. After two months, we have no further water in our basement through several heavy rains, the new gutters look good and don't clog easily, and we paid less than half what we'd have had to pay when we got our first quotes for this work by separate basement and gutter specialists. We'd recommend Montell to anyone
- EverDry Waterproofing of Grand Rapids/SaginawWe had had a number of instances of water backing up into the basement and general basement dampness. Everdry did an assessment of our needs, thoroughly explained the process, and gave us an estimate. Their crew arrived on time and performed all the agreed upon work in a timely and professional manner. The work included digging a trench around the outside of the basement and applying waterproofing compound (tarlike) to the entire outside basement wall and placing perforated drainage pipe around the base of the wall. They chipped out a 4" wide trench around the interior basement wall, installed gravel and drainage pipe in the trench. They deepened the sump pump and excavated a drainage pit in the backyard and installed a vent to reduce moisture. CLEANUP The outside trench was filled in and all disturbed plantings were replaced. The interior trench was filled with new cement. The sump pit was filled in. RESULT We have had no problems with water or dampness in the basement since we had this work done. The annual fee to maintain the warranty is worth the money. We had a failure of the sump pump. The battery backup woked as expected and the company came promptly and replaced the failed pump at no charge. We are VERY satisfied with Everdry
- EverDry Waterproofing of Grand Rapids/SaginawWonderfully prompt and precise. Addressed all issues. We knew we would have a water issue when we bought our house 6 years ago. Everdry came out to help us get everything set for our home. The install of the system was done very quickly and professionally. Six years later, we have had no problems. They updated the system when the battery went out via their lifetime warranty program. Would highly recommend
- EverDry Waterproofing of Grand Rapids/SaginawThe process of it being done is loud and a bit crazy, but they are a hard working team and the benefits far outweigh any inconvenience during the process. They were very educational towards us and have been great with any maintenance calls we have made. They are quick to respond and prompt with their timing
- Gold Star Waterproofing, LLCWe are preparing to renovate our basement, and wanted a professional assessment before doing so, as we had some minor water intrusion several years ago. I called several companies specializing in whole basement systems, and they recommended Gold Star as a better option for my project. Steve showed up on time, assessed the problem areas, and recommended solutions without pushing for overkill. He had a quote to me the next day, and after getting a few more quotes, we decided to go with Gold Star, as it provided the most bang for our buck. Within a week of signing the paperwork, Gold Star was on site, and fixed everything in the course of one day, leaving no mess behind. All in all, a great experience
- Gold Star Waterproofing, LLCThis A review is very late, but so well deserved. I first contacted Steve 2 years ago with my first water leakage (there has been several more since then). Every time I phone him, he always responds right away. Most cases will give me an estimate on the spot. With the first job he did back in April of 2016, he not only dug down about 10' to repair a deep crack in the cement wall, but he also suggested to dig the trenches and lay down the perforated piping. I had some serious issues with poor drainage in my back yard! After a second visit, to lay down more piping, I can actually mow my lawn in the spring during the rainy season! I hate finding new leaks in my foundation but if I do, I at least know that I found a great person who is honest and trustworthy and that I can completely rely on
- Gold Star Waterproofing, LLCWow.... Steve was fantastic! I called him because I had water coming into my basement any time we experienced a hard rain. I had called one of his competitors previously who advised me that I had a crack in my foundation behind the drywall. He told me to remove the drywall and call him back for a repair estimate of $600. Steve had a very different method. Steve came out and walked around the house with me and listened to what I had to say about the water problem and what I've already tried to do about it. He told me that the foundation looked good but I was missing some caulk where the concrete steps meet the house. He showed me what caulk he uses and told me to pick some up, caulk around the step and pack some dirt in on the sides and I'd be good to go. The next day I tried this, waited a few days for the caulk to cure and went out with the garden hose. NO LEAKS! The best part is, Steve didn't charge me a dime. My neighbor then called him with a water issue he has. Steve came back out, spent some time with him and showed him how to fix it. FOR FREE!! I would not hesitate to call Gold Star if I ever got another drop of water in my basement, and would trust anything he tells me. Water in your basement?? BETTER CALL STEVE
- Gold Star Waterproofing, LLCAfter starting the job he decided that it was easier than he thought and he reduced his price by $50. He thought that the job would originally take 6 hours, but he was finished in 4 hours. When he finished, he showed me the work and explained what was happening and finally he should me that the problem was fixed. I really appreciate honest vendors that don't work up a price and stab you with unnecessary work

"Awesome and Great!! Let me start with their sales person. His name is Corey! I loved this guy. so professional, great helper, and very knowledgeable.

I knew right away since that moment I will hire this company because of this very nice and good man. Tracy! this is a great person who runs and manages the teams, date, and time. I can say she's a great customer service. Tracy went through the finance and explained even the small details with kind and professionalism.

"Called for emergency service on a Sunday. Scott explained the additional cost to come out, but did not explain that the service price would be increased as well. Felt like they were price gouging because of the situation.
Update: Received a follow-up call from Dan the next day to clarify the miscommunication. His explanation seemed genuine and appears this may have just been a one-off issue.

"When I called Kent, Rick Silvis was able to meet me at my house on my lunch. He quickly found our problem and had an estimate to me and my insurance company the next day. Once we had authorization from insurance they were able to start work within the week.
<br /> It took them 2 days, and when they left it looked as good as new. I am very impressed with the work they did.
