JL WATERPROOFING

They arrived on time and on the day they said they would be here. First day was the worst, you would not believe the noise and dust emitted from two jackhammers in your basement, although they tried to contain the dust using vacuum cleaners. I had to move my stuff away from the walls at least 5 feet, they covered it with plastic, but still have dust on everything. Everything was hauled out in buckets and disposed of on my property, chunks of concrete make good hill holders. Second day was to route out the channels for the drainage channel and install washed rock and dig hole for sump pump, a short day, too late in day for installing concrete. Third day and last was to install and smooth out wet concrete over the drainage channels and washed rock, plumb the sump tank outside and clean up. Was a OK job but rather expensive, they threw in the pad removal when I baulked at the price. Took over two weeks for the concrete to get completely dry, had lots of water under my floor. I still get water on one end of the house basement floor, but only after heavy rains, I believe this a problem with my roof drainage, which I am in process of fixing. The company behind Basement Systems say NO water leaks in basement period, I would take that with a grain of salt. I am disappointed that the company that installed the system has not made a follow-up call to see how its going. I thought the price was high, but there is a lot of labor involved, so on a 1-10 scale, I would give it an overall 7.5.
