Ed and his team are FANTASTIC! Based on the great reviews by others on AL, I called Ed and he came to inspect our home. Although he had a busy schedule, he was able to squeeze us in quickly ( we really needed it!), and the recent storm left us dry and comfy for the first time in years! The work was first rate, and when they left, you could not tell that anything had been done- the area was pristine. I would recommend Ed for all your waterproofing needs! He really lives up to his reputation!

The two workers did an excellent job. They cleaned the whole area when they were finished and they took the time to keep me informed of their progress as they were building the drywell.

Very happy with the work performed. Professional and skilled crew who were on time and worked quickly. It was a tight space with a nearby fence so they did everything manually. Very thorough job and looks great! No more leaks in the basement and we're very happy! Price was fair and reasonable and below other contractors' estimates. Would definitely hire again if needed.

Work done neatly and quickly. We’ve had several rainstorms since the work was completed and no sign of any water in the basement.

Ed And his team were fantastic. This is the second time we’ve used his company and would highly recommend them. Ed is honest, identifies the problem, tells you exactly what you need done and his company’s pricing is fair. He doesn’t try to sell you services that aren’t necessary for your home’s problem. They repaired and waterproofed a large vertical crack in our foundation where water was entering He also stands by his company’s warranty as an area we had done almost 10years ago was showing some evidence of water and they redid it without charge using newest materials. When job was completed all grass and landscaping were put back in place. Since the work was completed we have not had any other problems with water getting in our basement area.

E & M came for an estimate and diagnosed the problem promptly. No sales pitch or lengthly discussion, just explained that foundation cracks had to be repaired in the backyard behind the basement, they needed to excavate and fill in the dirt. They charged 1/4 of what the previous company charged to dig trenches and install a sump pump which didn't totally keep the boiler room dry. After living in the house for 20 years the boiler room has stayed dry finally, no need for a handyman to repair anything after their work either! They accepted the Angie's List coupon. Several rainstorms later: fantastic price and great result only wish I had found them sooner.

It went well. As soon as issues came up Eddie came back to the job let us know what was going on and even discounted the job as things didn’t go exactly as planned.

We had two water companies come to our house, and they both said that we needed expensive French drains to solve the mustiness in our basement. Then Ed came, and he said, when there isn't a problem, don't fix it, since we get no water in our basement. He even said that in our case French drains might hide a future problem of a possible crack in the wall. Instead he recommended that we get a professional grade dehumidifier that would improve the air quality of the entire house. He was right!! No more mustiness, and we didn't have to destroy our basement to fix it. You can definitely trust E & M!!!

Fantastic. I had received other quotes and they all insisted we needed to add French drains with a pump in the basement (very invasive and expensive). E&M looked and immediately saw that there was foundation cracking from when a window well had been cut in for egress window. They excavated, filled cracking with hydraulic cement, put a water proof sealer over the entire area of the window well and installed a vertical pipe with drain in well to below the foundation footing. All done in a half a day at 25-33% of the cost of the other quotes if you include the finish repairs that would have been necessary after their installation. Fast, efficient, effective. No a drop of water since they did this work.

Excellent! Ed is very professional and stands by his work. I have used him for both my houses. Before installing the french drain, he believed I had problem with one of my windows under the deck. He sealed the window up, but, unfortunately, I was still having a bit of a water issue. He came back immediately, and installed the french drain. He gave me a credit toward the price of the French drain for the amount I paid to seal the window. It has been over a year, and, even with all the nor easters we've had...not a drop of water! I was finally able to finish my basement without fear of water damage.

He actually stuck to the price on his quote from two years prior, and came and completed the job in half a day. When they encountered an issue with the exterior foundation in the process, they added a french drain on the inside of the basement at no additional cost. They clean up so well behind themselves you would never know anything was done, except that three months later there remains no water leaking in our home!

E &M provided a written estimate, and most importantly, set up a date that they would be available to do the work. Service was professional, efficient, and very neat. They showed up exactly when I was told they would to repair the foundation's crack and install a drywall to drain water away from the house and basement window. Basement has not leaked, at it has been two weeks since the work was done. I'm very happy with the work E & M did and would highly recommend them.

We moved into our house in September 2016. With purchase documents came warranty from E & M Waterproofing for work originally done in May 2014. Warranty is for 10 years and stipulated that it was transferrable to new owner. Had leak last week, and when we called them they were very responsive and fixed problem within a week at no additional charge.
