This company is a joke. Steve is a snake oil salesman who pressured us into a $10k job. He came out and misdiagnosed the problem resulting in him switch the plans several times. When it came time to get the work done, my brother and I had to finish the job. If your job is to take water from the foundation how is exterior work not included in the quote. Furthermore, Steve has ZERO man management and LIMITED knowledge of his field. His crews have no idea what they're doing, and his front office is a joke. I had to explain to them that they do indeed make male pipe fittings despite Steve and his associates persistence that they don't. If it's a choice of having water in your house or working with these jokers l'd recommend just letting the house fill with water. Pathetic, unprofessional, and a waste of time and money. SMD Stevie.

Steve Rusk was very responsive to the water intrusion situation in our basement. The source/cause of the water intrusion was not obvious and Steve went above and beyond to diagnose the problem. He designed a comprehensive plan to remedy the problem and was able to have the work completed quickly. Not only was the quality of the work fantastic, but all of the workers he brought into our home were great. Our basement is dry and we have every confidence it will stay that way! His attention to our needs was exceptional - he is an expert in his field. We would highly recommend Steve and USA Waterproofing!!!!

I have waited for a good soaking, flooding rain to occur before leaving a review, but there have been no such rains or thaws since USA did the work in August, 2018 and it is now middle of October. They did all they promised to do very quickly and professionally, and the work was done with no problems whatsoever with this company.

I put my info into Angie’s list, and USA waterproofing called me 3 times. I scheduled an appointment for an estimate. They called again to confirm the appointment. On the day of the appointment, they never showed up and never called. I called them and they told me they weren’t sure why nobody showed up and that someone would call me to reschedule. Seriously?

It's been the rainy season so the job had to be rescheduled. They came on the rescheduled date. The job went very smoothly. The gentlemen working the job were very willing to discuss their progress and made sure we had a chance to ask questions as the job progressed. Our home was built in 1926 and is the house of thousand projects. This is one project we can happily say is one problem that has been solved.

Total professionalism, gave me the estimate, they weren’t the cheapest or the most expensive but he explained the work, and the time it would take to complete. I felt comfortable with his job knowledge and hired them. The job turned out to be a little more involved than previously thought but they worked through it with no extra charge to me. As of now I haven’t seen any water in my crawl space.

Steve Rusk the manager from cleveland was highly responsive. Their team did an amazing job of fixing the leakage. Whenever we called he would respond immediately. The team very professional and we very happy with their work. We will definitely use their services again. We recommend them for others too. ?????

I usually don’t like to waste my time writing reviews, but I’m compelled to write one because my experience with this contractor was an absolute nightmare. The problem is, they make their prospective clients sign a contract that allows the contractor to breach it with no liability if they determine that they “accidentally” misquoted the job to be performed. This is troubling given that their standard practice essentially allows them to sign as many contracts as they can and selectively choose which contracts to perform and breach the remaining contracts they can’t perform or don’t want to perform without incurring any liability. Please read their contract carefully. So here’s my story: I signed a contract with their salesman in November to work on my basement finishing. The salesman ambitiously promised that it would be finished before Christmas. However, I had to call them and send several messages in the middle of December because no one was coming by my house to start the job. After several weeks of no response, I finally got a hold of the vice president, Steve, who visited us to take a look at our basement. His initial excuse was that it was too cold to start work and proposed to start work in February. Nevertheless, I remained patient until early February, but again, no one came by my house to perform the job. I had to contact the contractor several times again until someone I finally got someone to visit us. This time, the contractor demanded an additional $1,530 for their allegedly misquoted estimate which I reluctantly accepted and also asked for another $6,000 for flooring which I declined. I told them, I would do flooring on my own. Despite, paying the contractor for the allegedly misquoted estimate, no one came by my house to perform the job. I contacted them several times again, and in early March, they finally informed me that there are still several discrepancies, so they recommended me to find another contractor. I wasted more than three months with this contractor. Don’t make the same mistake I did. Find someone else.

no work was hired but the consultation was direct & the price was fair but we needed to go with another company for a dual project. if i were to just go with waterproofing alone i am sure i would consider.

They were prompt, ran into an unforeseen problem and they had to spend extra time and labor to correct it with no additional charge to me. They cleaned up everyday and when the job was done my yard looked as nice as the day they started. I don’t foresee anymore water issues.

Very satisfied ! Courteous and prompt and professional with very good prices on their services . What more could you ask for?

Everything was done in two days, as promised. They left everything cleaned up, even mopped the floor. They finished the job just as a 36-hour rain was starting, so their work was tested almost immediately, and it passed with flying colors.

The project manager came to look at the work required. He was very pleasant and professional and there were no high pressure sales tactics involved. In order to fix the front of the house, a porch needs to be removed. He said he was not sure if they could handle that part of the job and would contact the engineering department. After not hearing back for several days I sent a follow up email. Several days after the email I have still heard nothing from them. I would have appreciated some response, even if it was that they did not want to pursue the job. I have not called them. An estimate from a second vendor was much more informative offering a very different analysis and some very inexpensive alternatives to try first before investing in the expense of a waterproofing job.

The service was performed two months later than initially promised.  I understood and patiently waited.  Everything seemed fine until Spring 2016 when the same problem reoccurred.  I called the company and was told that the service department would need to be involved and would return my call.  After one week with no call back, I called again.  A record of my previous call was on file but it was unknown why my call was not returned.  It has been two weeks since my last call and still no response.  Unresponsive deserves an F.

They were AWESOME!  Covered all of the things in my crawl space that I couldn't take out so they would not get dirty.  Also curtained and taped off crawl space so dust and dirt would not get into the rest of the house!  They were so professional, so polite and did a WONDERFUL JOB!  Looks great!  I would definitely use them again or recommend!

After getting 4 estimates, USA was moderate and did the best job explaining how they would fix our leaky basement problem. The work was done quickly and done by hand so as to minimize damage to the lawn and plantings. The manager came out and checked the job when it was finished. Cleanup was pretty good, but we will still need to do some work on the spring, as would be expected. My only complaint (relatively minor) was that some of workers played REALLY loud hard rock music right under our window....my husband was recovering form surgery and couldn't go upstairs. We should have said something. The basement has stayed dry so far. We will have them out next year to do more work.

We would never consider using this company for any work.  All they did was try to push their "system".  We needed a single basement wall crack fixed and after the high pressure sales tactic you would think our 6 year old basement was crumbling down around us according to their salesman.  They only sell their "system" and do nothing else even though you need much less they push their product, not solve the homeowner's problem.

They came down and they gave me an estimate to do what I wanted done for $1170.00. I told them, as I always do, that I get 3-4 estimates. Their estimate came out to be the best. The man who came down never mentioned anything about a 10% senior citizen discount. When I looked them up on Angie’s List I saw that they had a discount. I called them and asked if I could get the discount. That would have brought it down to $1153.00. They transferred me to the guy who gave me the original estimate. I told him if they could do it for $1000.00 they had the job. He said that they wouldn’t be about do to if for the original $1170.00 estimate and they wouldn’t be able to do it for anything under $1500.00. They bumped it up over $300.00 the original written quote. This estimate included the pump.

It went quite well. The guys worked very hard. Their boss came and followed up with us. They were very prompt. They cleaned up pretty good but there was some mud left over.
