Once the installation began, I met with Lisa and crew at the beginning and end of each day (2.5 days) to discuss everything from plank layout and furniture needing extra care to reviewing the day's progress and next steps. Everyone was timely and professional, and the work was very well done. At the end of the project, I reviewed a short list of loose ends with Lisa, and she and the crew leader promptly came back and finished everything up. Lisa focused on making sure I was completely satisfied with the project before considering it complete. She even provided advice on upkeep and cleaning and left a 'starter kit' for me! The flooring is beautiful and perfect for my needs (I have dogs and am so happy with the waterproof product!). It's everything I was promised. I don't think that I would have known the best thing to do without the attention to detail and expertise provided by Lisa and the crew. I ended up with exactly what I wanted/needed.

Although both people were professional and knowledgeable I wish it would have been made clear that this would take 2 separate appointments.

By the way they were closing in 15 minutes. I told her that I was at work but could drop everything and be there in 20 minutes (as my wife needed the computer for work) and she said I could come by in 20 minutes but that nobody would be there, and then she laughed. I found that a bit unprofessional and am still annoyed by it. That said, I have found my and quot;go-toand quot; computer repair guy. Rodi is awesome. He bent over backwards to get my wife files off the computer that she needed for work, stayed late to do it, and even after closing the shop late, he waited outside after closing his shop for 35 minutes holding the cell phone I had forgotten in his shop. He was nice and personable, but most importantly, he was able to get me all the files I needed and restore my computer to a working state after some sort of virus bomb had prevented it from even getting to the boot menu. I have already recommended his service to friends and am almost completely satisfied with his service. I thought his prices were a bit high, but at the end of the day, his service was worth the money. I hope I never need his services again, but if I do, I am glad he is there. Oh, BTW, check out his USB keys if you go to his office. He designed them himself - slim enough to fit on a key chain, waterproof and virtually indestructible (stainless steel). Pretty cool stuff.

Basement Waterproofing reviews from real Angi homeowners in Leonard, TX
I dislike leaving bad reviews but this company needs to come with a warning because if I can save someone else from wasting thousands of dollars, I would like to. At first, Jose seemed honest and reasonable - we hired him to do interior painting for our vacant townhouse prior to listing it...

Trustworthy, honest and reliable. They were always ready to go beyond and above for their customers. I would certainly recommend waterproofing services to my family members and relatives.
I worked with Project Manager Lisa Realini throughout all phases of the project. Lisa helped me by explaining different flooring and baseboard options, providing multiple samples to review, and walking through several conversations to help me decide what would be the best choice(s) for my...

"DON'T HIRE!! Travis was suggested by my boyfriends friend. He was scheduled to show up a particular day but he rescheduled me twice and when he did finally show up he was almost 2 hours late. Fixed the wall almost completely then said he fell into it! (I kid you not.) He had to start it over and it looked like this (see pic.) It doesn't at all look like the brick job around it. The brick is set in way to far (deep.) The mortar covers most of the sides of the brick and is almost flush with the brick. Some bricks are crooked as well, and the mortar color doesn't even match what was already there. PLUS, he never even touched the sheet rock!! He was called and said he would come redo it. The job was done on October 29, 2020. It's now been 4 phone calls, 3 reschedules (on his part) and 2 texts ago! Each time telling us he'd be out that week or such and such specific day. I have yet to see hide nor hair of him. This guy/company is a rip off. I rated the price as fair "C" because when he was hired I thought that was a fair price. After all this and the shoddy work...I definitely don't think it was worth the price at all! DON'T HIRE!!"

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts
Yes, engineers assess soil load-bearing capacity and provide construction guidelines.
Depending on the severity, a slab leak can go undetected for months or even years, especially if you don’t carry out routine foundation inspections to find foundation leaks early. However, minor leaks are likely to turn into more severe leaks over time, so you might notice increases in water bills and issues with yard drainage, even if the problem is minor.
Yes, these services often increase home value by preventing moisture-related issues and enhancing the usable space in basements or crawlspaces.
While "dry" mode on your AC can help reduce humidity levels to some extent, it may not be as effective as a dedicated dehumidifier, especially in areas with extremely high humidity or larger spaces. Dehumidifiers are specifically designed to remove moisture from the air more efficiently, making them a better choice for tackling persistent humidity issues.
Crawl space encapsulation typically lasts between 10 to 20 years. If you experience a catastrophic event, like a flood, or poorly encapsulate your space with low-quality materials, it may only last a decade. Otherwise, as long as you properly maintain your crawl space, a high-quality encapsulation can last more than 20 years.
