Now here's the interesting part. A torrential rainstorm started on Wednesday morning. We received approximately 3-4 inches of rain during Wednesday and Thursday. Just as they finished the job and powered up the sump pumps, the water level in the sumps was starting to rise to the top. The pumps ran the entire night, 21 seconds on, 21 seconds off. By morning the off time had increased to about 90 seconds. By the end of Friday, the pumps were off entirely. Our basement was completely dry. We noticed several of our neighbors having their basements pumped out over that weekend. One neighbor lost everything in their basement. That's how bad this freak storm was, but we were in good shape. Perfect timing for a severe test of Salvo's work.
We got estimates from 3 different companies and Paul Salvo was not only the cheapest, but they would perform the most work. They proposed to reconstruct the failing wall, instead of just supporting it like the other 2 companies.
They did a very professional job and kept my mom informed throughout the process. They demolished and rebuilt a portion of the exterior wall, installed french drains around the exterior walls, installed a new sump pump and painted all walls. Upon completion the basement was much cleaner then when the started. However, after the first large rain storm some water was found around an interior wall in the basement. They were out at mom's house the next day installing a french drain on the interior wall. They performed this work at no additional charge.
Since then the basement has been dry. Overall they did a very good job and were very responsive when problems did arise. They went above and beyond what I expected. They even fixed some of the electrical sockets in the basement at no charge!! I would definitely recommend them for anyone with a water problem in their basement.
They were efficient, showed up on time, were very competent, neat, efficient, thorough. Covered our outer room with plastic to protect from dust, and when they left, the crawl space was actually cleaner than before they had showed up!
They finished on time. Charged us exactly what they agreed to charge.
His crew was on time, professional, friendly, and immaculate. They had to return the following week to replace the paneling, and do some additional caulking, not related to the crack. Everything went well . The paneling was replaced perfectly.
I waited for four rainstorms to pass before submitting this report. I no longer have to spend hours shop vacuuming water and worrying about the weather. I got my money's worth and would definitely recommend this company.
