Is not honoring the guarantee of a dry basement
Emily L.
Nov 2024
The crew that put piers under our house was in a rush, begining to end spending just under 3 days putting in 13 piers on a very deep foundation in clay and rock soil in poor weather; the 14th and 15th piers they were unable to install. There are also two locations where 2 days afterwards the soil had settled several feet bellow it's original level. Both the sides and the back yard were left very uneven and covered in raised excavator tread marks. On one side wires that need to be covered were left exposed and wires that need to be exposed were covered. They caused property damage to us and both neighbors on either side of us at a distance well beyond how far we were advised to remove our belongings from the site. It took a week from initial complaints to have the job inspected. It took another week to have Keystone come out to fix one of our neighbor's lawn. This second crew was not instructed in what they were there for; I had to explain it. They had to come back at a later time to do the work. Even then they did not bring grass seed as promised by the project manager and did not fully remove the dirt across our property line or fully flatten the area. My husband and I gave up and are repairing their lawn ourselves. Keystone does not seem to have a system for following up or reparations. Very little was communicated to us throughout this whole process without us initiating communications.

The product itself is working. Unfortunately we changed how the sump pump was going to be placed. We were billed for extra service that we did not receive. It took close to three months to receive the refund. Calls were placed and not returned. Only when we threatened to take them to small claims court did they finally send the reimbursement to me. We were unhappy about the level they drilled so hopefully we have no additional problems. They are great when they receive their money but not so great when you have issues with what they did. I would not refer them to anyone due to my experience.

Got a written quote to level some slabs and seal all of the joints in my driveway and rear patio area after a thorough on-site inspection from Keystone estimator. Gave them a deposit on the spot and signed the contract. Work scheduled for mid-summer. Approximately one month later I get an email from estimator that they have now reviewed the job and needed to make an adjustment to the price. Said that based on their new warranty they would have to inject numerous areas of my driveway slabs to "stabilize" so the sealed joints don't fail. Total price went from approx. $3100 to over $6000. I've been in construction many years and prefer to deal with honest and trustworthy people. When you give people a price, they accept and sign a contract, you live with your quote and do the work. Not these guys. If they were willing to pull a stunt like this, no telling what they are capable of doing if I would have a problem after the work is done. I asked for my deposit back and will find someone else. Hopefully, honorable people. Lost a month fooling with this mistake. I would not recommend doing business with these guys.
Response from Keystone Basement Systems & Structural Repair Inc
"I want to first apologize to you Mr. [Member Name Removed] that your experience with Keystone was not what you were looking for. We always make sure that we are doing the correct job for the customer and our original plan was not going to protect your concrete for the long term. I was pleased that we caught this mistake long before your estimated install date and were able to discuss it with you and fully understood your desire to cancel given the change in scope. If there is anything that we could help you with in the future, please do not hesitate to reach out."

I spent $20,000 to waterproof my basement. The salesman said that once I did this, I could live down there if I wanted. Well, there are numerous leaks which they refuse to address. They sent someone out twice and twice they said someone will be in touch with you. No one ever does. Know I need to seek legal counsel to try and get what I was promised.
Response from Keystone Basement Systems & Structural Repair Inc
"Mrs. [Member Name Removed] has leaks that are actually coming from above her wall. Our system is designed to stop below grade water leaks which the owners property had and the system is controlling those. We have been out to review and we are actually doing some additional work at no charge to help her with the above grade leaks so we are hoping that we can help her with that situation. Also, there are issues with excessive humidity in the basement that needs to be controlled by a Dehumidifier which was not part of her original contract. KBS is doing what it can to help this customer beyond what was contracted for. We are hoping to solve these additional issues for her."

They did our basement right before Christmas. They did a fantastic job. They even helped me remove an old well pump that was in the way of their work. They were very professional and punctual. In the picture that shows the Pipe coming down the wall Water use to seep up through the floor there and over in the corner where the sump pump pit is in the corner it would actually run down the wall that is no longer happening. As you can see in the one picture the amount of water that was coming in as they were working was not a good thing as it had not rained in about a week.

We were promised a level driveway by injecting foam under specific concrete pads in our driveway. We were unsure about the sealant after the project was completed but was told we could add this on just prior to the project. Well let me tell you our driveway is not level ans the yellow foam they used to inject is now on our driveway and will not come off. our driveway looks worse now. Also the sealant went up by $200.00. I would never recommend this compant and plan to tell anyone I can. We spent a lot of money to be this dissatified.
Response from Keystone Basement Systems & Structural Repair Inc
"Unfortunately, not all concrete can be completely leveled as there are a lot of factors that can stop that process. Due to this fact, KBS never promises to be able to lift the concrete back to its original level. On all of our concrete jobs, we promised stabilization to make sure the concrete does not drop any further than its current height. In most cases we are able to achieve lift and in a majority of those situations, we are able to get the lift back to the original position. However, it does not happen every time and our paperwork completely explains this and so do our representatives. As far as any blemishes or the sealant, I would love if you can reach back out to the office so we can see what we can do to get that work handled for you. I look forward to hearing from you soon!"

We had 5 basement jacks installed. Our new home is over 100 years old and we were nervous about jack hammering into the concrete. The cracks in the walls just kept growing and we knew that we had to do something to prevent more damage. The representative who came to meet with us for an estimate was very reassuring and informative about what would be done. He said that it was amazing no jacks had been put in previously, the distance between the beams was much too far and the wooden joists were cracking. He provided a comprehensive proposal and was ready to talk with us on the phone before we had the work scheduled to be completed. This was very helpful to calm our worries. The work that was done was, fast, efficient and we are very happy with the result. I recommend this company very highly. It's hard to trust a company that you might find on the internet. I think that we were very lucky that we were able to find Keystone.

I was contacted twice before the installation date to confirm my project. I received another phone call the day of the installation. The two men, Daniel and Dominick, explained what was going to be done and were professional the entire day. The concrete slab was leveled with the front porch and looked as good as new. All joints in the driveway were cleaned, filled and sealed. The project was completed on time and at a reasonable cost. Great job!

"Thank you very much for this kind review. We are lucky to have Daniel and Domenic on our team. Thank you for spotlighting their hard work."

Along with other work, we had one of our foundation walls completely rebuilt by Keystone about 7 years ago and although no water was leaking in, I became concerned about two long hairline cracks that I noticed. I called the company office, explained my issue and a date was scheduled to have a technician check the wall. Barry was dispatched, arrived on time, and I showed him the areas that I was concerned about. He felt that these were cracks due to settling, ground them out and filled them with new mortar. During the process, he fully explained what he was doing and that he was going to install "Crack Monitors" on each area. These would be checked periodically to ensure that these were truly due to settling and not pressure from the outside bowing the foundation. Barry also told me that if bowing was actually happening, carbon fiber straps would be installed, at no charge, to stabilize the wall. I would like to give a shout out to Barry, who was very thorough, professional, and a wealth of information. Also to Keystone, who was very responsive to my concern. The only negative I would add is that the company warranty stipulates that every 5 years someone would be out to inspect their work; I had to remind them that this was overdue, but Barry also took care of it while he was on site.

I was interested in having Keystone provide an assessment and quote for basement waterproofing project. I was called by a very pleasant person to make the appointment. Unfortunately, they scheduler would not allow me to make an appointment without my spouse present. I stated that this is unacceptable due to our schedules, and they kept pushing and finally would not make an appointment for us. I do not appreciate these high pressure sales techniques, which have even been called out by angies list( [*** Link removed ***] In all fairness, many other companies we contacted have employed the same technique with differing levels of conviction.

Unfortunately, what started as a very positive experience has turned into a very negative experience. Keystone Basement Systems did not correctly diagnose the source of the pooling water in my basement. A drainage and pump system was installed, only to find that the real issue was a pinhole leak in one of my pipes.
Response from Keystone Basement Systems & Structural Repair Inc
"There is no question that this customer had a leak in their one plumbing line that was causing a water issue in that area. However, they had water intrusion coming in through their outside perimeter walls and that is the system we designed to resolve these issues. KBS ended up doing the project at no cost to the customer due to the one area."

french drain and sump pump installed. didn't stop the seepage but the moisture did collect in the sump (not enough for the pump to run). wall still seeps, mold still grows, but the floor is dry. dehumidifier added, works well as it does pull humidity from the air. not the best outcome for my problem. caution - make sure the 'cure' is fully explaind as to what it will/won't do for your problem. I may have misunderstood their solution.

The team that was sent was quick and efficient. My kitchen floor was sloping right under the refrigerator. The Keystone inspector found that a joint in the basement was cracked and the post right under it needed replaced. They had it corrected in just about 2 days. I am very happy with the final result and how we were treated during the entire process.

Drain and sump pump installed under concrete floor. Seepage continued, barely wet the sump pump well. Dehumidifier was provided which kept the area dry. Seepage continues. Works but not what I expected. Unable to paint the wall.

Their solution was to install a sump pump with perimeter drainage into the sump. Not exactly what I wanted nor did it do anything to eliminate the seepage - mold continues to grow. Called them twice requesting one of their technicians to view my situation to suggest a solution to the problem. I made two phone calls and was told twice that someone would contact me shortly. The last call was four days ago, and have never received a callback, either time. Their warranty states "KEYSTONE BASEMENT SYSTEMS IS COMMITTED TO PROVIDING THE HIGHEST QUALITY SERVICE POSSIBLE TO ENSURE THE WORK PERFORMED EXCEEDS CUSTOMER EXPECTATIONS." Do NOT believe this! Call someone else. They make and list a number of waterproofing solutions, but apparently take the shortest (and possibly) most expensive option. $2722.83 paid, unsatisfactory solution, a sump pump that never turns on, and a drain line that remains perfectly dry. Not a business to hire, certainly not for waterproofing.

Got an estimate from Brian, he was very professional and courteous. He was willing to work with the pricing and provide answers to all of my questions and concerns. Their product seems better than the others that i received estimates from.

I wanted to wait until the system was up and running for a month before submitting a review. We had an annoying amount of water coming into our basement and garage after every rain event. I called multiple companies to provide quotes, and Keystone was recommended by a neighbor. Brian came to our house to an in-person inspection, was extremely professional, and quickly provided us with an estimate that was slightly less than the other companies, but for a much higher quality product. The install team lead by Chris was also quick and professional, completing the work within the estimated schedule. The system works perfectly, pumping over 1,000 gallons the first day! Daily average on the PumpSpy app is 300+gallons/day since installation. Glad to have a system installed. Thanks again to Brian, Chris, and the Keystone team.

If you are looking for a first-rate company to install a French drain, sump pump and outdoor water management system, you should call Keystone Basement Systems. My basement water problems were complicated to me but not to Jeff M., Inspector, who thoroughly explained how things would work. Jeff M. did an excellent job reviewing the contract and payment plan financing options with GreenSky. I was relieved to find the cost so reasonable and warranty transferable within 60 days upon sale of the house. Keystone really does a great job of laying out their waterproofing concept without all the elaborate slide presentations and slick customer brochures. Jeff M. was pleasant, patient and honest which convinced me that I could trust Keystone Basement Systems to do the job right and they did! Dewey, Job Foreman, was great in seeing that his “crew of two” – Devin and J.T. worked expertly to get my French Drain, sump pump and outside water management systems installed timely and correctly. These guys rocked and got the job done in about 2 ½ days! Many thanks to Dewey, Devin and J.T. who worked diligently and kept me informed of their progress. When the job was finished they left the basement and my yard very clean. I love the technology this company uses. The PumpSky Pumping Station is slick with remote monitoring via Wi-Fi. To be able to check the sump pump from my iPhone PumpSky App is awesome and adds to my peace of mind. What an innovative set up to monitor a sump pump! Whoever thinks this stuff up at Keystone makes sure it works and notifies you if it doesn’t. What I love the most is having a dry basement. Hallelujah! I never thought I’d see the day when no water comes creeping in my basement but Keystone Basement Systems made it happen. It’s a beautiful day in my neighborhood so give Keystone a try to make a difference in yours!

Due to a natural spring near the corner of the addition to my house I had Keystone Basement systems install an interior French drain and sump pump in my basement. They kept things as clean as possible given that they were drilling into and hauling concrete. I have a unique situation with my downspouts and outdoor drains, and Keystone was able to work with my existing piping to save me some money. The sump has been working perfectly through several heavy storms, as well as handling the everyday water output from the natural spring. I was pleased with their service and would recommend this company.

In August Keystone Basement Systems & Structural Repair Inc. installed a steel-beam wall repair and interior drainage system which I described in a previous 5-star review. In short, all went well, my wife and I were very happy with the management (Aaron), the crew (Josh and Robert) and the work itself. But then a week or so later we got a big rainstorm. I was very disappointed to find water puddles stemming from the new drainage system. So I emailed Aaron. He immediately replied saying "we will get to the bottom of this [problem]". A day later, Renae Taylor (Head of Service) called and set up an appointment for Chuck A. to access the situation. Chuck showed up, diagnosed the problem and set a day to come and fix it. Chuck A. came and fixed, what to me looked like a two-day project, all in one day, all by himself. It was pretty impressive work. He's a great guy too! Keystone Basement Systems & Structural Repair Inc. stands by their work! From my experience with them, the warranty included in the project is as good as gold!

I just had structural repair done in my basement along with installation of a waterproofing system. From beginning to end I was very impressed with Keystone and their employees. Scott M. was our inspector, he was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the process. Due to the extensive issues with my basement, alot of thought went into my decision on how much work to get done and who to have perform the work. I did have other companies visit for quotes. Scott made multiple trips to my house upon my request to go over the services , warranties, process, etc and answered every question/concern I had prior to me making any financial obligation to the company. I was very impressed by his dedication to the customer and he was very key in my decision to choose Keystone. Tony was our foreman for the job, he and his crew did an excellent job and were also very friendly / helpful with the questions I had. There are few things as stressful as seeing water getting into your basement and moreso the foundation of your home compromised, but Keystone really worked with me on this and helped ease my stress. My basement walls definitely look much better and have the support they need. Of course it's too early for me to comment on the effectiveness of the repair work, only time will tell. I really hope I do not have to edit this review sometime down the road, but between all the great reviews I have read on Keystone and my positive experience with its employees I am quite confident I will not need to. 5/5 for sure.

From the free estimate to the completion of the project everything went great and even better than expected. Aaron came to the house with a fair and detailed cost quote. He was knowledgeable, friendly and professional. We accepted the project proposal and work began on August 20th, 2019. Josh and Robert showed up on time and ready to work. They are great guys and very professional. No nonsense, just hard workers, yet working with a smile. They knew exactly what to do and wasted no time doing it. They happily answered any and all questions that we asked. Each day they left the basement very clean and tidy. The wall was fixed and the drain system seems to be effective. I highly recommend them!
